Hillcrest takes pride in its growing sustainability program and understands its responsibility in regard to future generations. We are proud to have achieved Platinum level BOMA Best certification in 2023.
Recycling
- Hillcrest provides numerous garbage disposal throughout the property. Interior containers are comprised of bins labelled for the disposal of paper, recycling, and garbage and organics.
- Our waste container program consists of three compactors dedicated to recycling, 1 compactor dedicated to loose cardboard and 1 compactor dedicated to garbage. Info-graphs and memos are regularly provided to our tenants keeping our recycling program top of mind to help capture any waste that can be recycled.
- The above practices have resulted in a waste diversion rate of 62% for the first 6 months of 2025, as measured by our waste hauler through monthly building-level waste diversion reports. This represents a 13% increase from our 2024 first-half diversion rate of 55%.
- These programs have captured 8.2 tonnes of materials that would have otherwise gone to landfill.

Lightening Technologies
In 2024, our mall lighting was integrated with a loadshedding schedule in our Building Automation System (BAS). This implementation has documented a reduction in our baseline consumption from 425,000 kWh to 215,000 kWh annually for common area lighting. This represents a 50% lighting energy reduction during daylight hours after implementing the daylight harvesting program.
