Baguio City, Philippines — As water security continues to challenge communities across the Philippines, SM City Baguio is showing how innovation and sustainability can flow together. Through its rainwater treatment facility, the mall treats rainwater to convert into potable water, helping secure tomorrow’s water supply for its operations.
This program ensures that the mall can continue to responsibly serve millions of visitors while reducing dependency on local water utilities. More significantly, it shows how rainfall can be used to alleviate urban water scarcity when properly managed
“We’ve always valued innovation and creativity in the malls – we take it a step further now to where it truly matters. SM City Baguio’s rainwater treatment facility shows how the right innovation can secure tomorrow’s water,” said SM Supermalls President Steven Tan.”
