Drink Without Waste campaign celebrates World Refill Day

Infinitus Plaza together with Urban Spring join the Drink Without Waste campaign, and millions of people around the world, in reducing single-used plastic waste.

During the week of 13th - 19th June, visitors, customers, and tenants who commute through Sheung Wan, can get a free water refill using their own water bottles at the lobby of Infinitus Plaza. To encourage people to bring their own bottle and to promote green living habits, anyone who refills their bottle can participate in a lucky draw for free drip-bag coffee, fresh crops or snacks.

World Refill Day is an international campaign to reduce plastic pollution and help people live with less waste. More information: https://www.refill.org.uk/world-refill-day/

Paul Zimmerman, General Manager of Drink Without Waste Limited said, “Drink Without Waste encourages property managers and shopping malls to install water refill stations at their premises. This will help expand Hong Kong's water refill network and in turn, reduce single-use beverage bottle consumption.”

CEO Ada Yip of Urban Spring said, “To encourage the public to bring their own bottles, in addition to basic safety and hygiene, it is more important to make environmental protection a very fashionable thing! Filtered drinking water supplied by the 「Well井」 is strictly monitored and cooled for better taste.? With smart design and a sleek appearance, we can reduce waste while being stylish!”?

Representative of Infinitus Plaza added, “We are pleased to support ‘Drink Without Waste’ initiatives to reduce single-use plastic waste.? We care about the well-being of people.? We believe that environmental quality affects our happiness.? We hope that through this event, the general public will realize how important it is to achieve sustainable lifestyles.”
