Stockland Merrylands Shopping Centre is installing No BuTTs award-winning Eco-Pole Wall & Post-mounted Ashtrays as part of their major $400 million redevelopment.
Stockland is Australia’s largest diversified property group. Stockland develop and manage residential communities, retirement living villages and retail centres.
Stockland Merrylands shopping centre is located 25km West of the Sydney CBD and has serviced the local community
for 40 years.
In October 2012, Stockland Merrylands completed a major $400 million redevelopment, and now delivers a 59,000sqm shopping centre, including Kmart, Target, Big W, Coles, Franklins, Woolworths, over 200 specialty stores and 3,000 free car spaces.
Stages 3 and 4 of Stockland Merrylands have been awarded a 4 star Green Star Retail Design rating by the Green Building Council of Australia.
"We're proud that Stockland has again selected No BuTTs Eco-Pole Wall & Post-mounted Ashtrays - this time for their Merrylands redevelopment." said Jack Jacobson, No BuTTs Managing Director.
"Obviously, retail facilities these days try to incorporate as much "Green" into their designs as possible, but many of them still don't provide enough Designated Smoking Zones or effective butt litter disposal infrastructure."
"It always amazes me that developers and retail facilities spend millions upgrading the appearance of their locations, but sometimes ignore or overlook the damaging and very unattractive look to their properties that is created by cigarette butt litter."
"Stockland understand this perfectly and they are leading the way retail and residential facilities address the issue - and we're delighted that they have again chosen to install No BuTTs Stainless Steel & Litter-proof Eco-Pole Ashtrays to assist their customers, visitors and staff to easily and responsibly dispose of their cigarette butts."
No BuTTs Eco-Pole Wall & Post-mounted Ashtrays feature a litter-proof design that prevents trash and paper waste being inserted into the ashtrays.
"This eliminates the common smouldering problems so often seen with other inferior designed ashtrays - and that's why over 500 retail plazas and shopping centres across Australia have now installed No BuTTs Eco-Pole Ashtrays, often to replace other ashtrays that cause more problems than they solve."
