Giving Used Red Packets a Second Life

Giving Used Red Packets a Second Life

As part of Mapletree’s commitment to waste reduction and circularity, used red packets were collected for recycling across its properties at Mapletree Business City, mTower and HarbourFront Tower after the festive season. Suitable festive red packets collected will be processed into woodfree paper, extending their useful life and reducing reliance on virgin resources.

With 190kg recycled across the three locations, the initiative helped avoid approximately 348 kg of CO₂e, compared with producing new paper from 100% virgin pulp, an estimate provided by Mapletree’s recycling partner. This reflects the Group’s continued focus on responsible resource use and its broader efforts to advance a more circular economy.
