SM Supermalls transforms shopping into sustainable experiences through green infrastructure that improves urban air quality while creating healthier, more livable cities.
Designing for People and Planet
SM prioritizes people-centric design with nature-integrated spaces. SM Mall of Asia’s arcades and MOA Sky feature open walkways encouraging outdoor activities, while SM Aura and SM North EDSA’s pioneering Sky Garden incorporates vegetation and water features to reduce heat, improve air quality, and create cooling effects in dense urban areas.
Championing sustainable mobility
With over 5,000 bike parking spaces across properties, SM leads bike-friendly initiatives. Studies show replacing short car trips with biking cuts carbon emissions by up to 90%, significantly reducing air pollution.
SM operates transport terminals supporting buses, jeepneys, and public transit, encouraging sustainable commuting that reduces individual carbon footprints and traffic congestion for cleaner air and efficient urban mobility.
Powering electric vehicle adoption
SM has installed Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in 69 malls nationwide, providing crucial infrastructure for cleaner transportation. EVs produce up to 60% less greenhouse gas emissions than traditional vehicles, making them key solutions for reducing urban pollution.
Green spaces and air quality monitoring
Select malls feature endemic plant species that filter pollutants while supporting local biodiversity and urban wildlife habitats.
Under SM Prime Holdings, the company partnered with Quezon City to establish an air quality monitoring system recording environmental data through a publicly accessible website, empowering communities with real-time information for healthier urban planning.
Building better communities
Celebrating 40 years of community service, SM Supermalls continues leading environmental sustainability through waste, water, energy innovations, and disaster resilience initiatives, redefining retail spaces where every visit contributes to a better urban future.
