Prime Infra has launched Prime Kalikasan: Greener Prime, Greater Future, a tree planting program that kicked off at its waste management facilities, reinforcing the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
Prime Infra Foundation and Prime Waste Solutions (PWS) held the tree planting program on September 5 and 6, in Porac, Pampanga and Barangay Binaliw, Cebu City, respectively.
“Through Prime Kalikasan, we reinforce our commitment to embed sustainability across our businesses and deliver positive impact on the environment,” said Prime Infra.
In Pampanga, about 700 seedlings of Ylang-Ylang were planted which would also eventually be used for bio-fencing, serving as a natural protective barrier. Nearly 150 volunteers took part in the activity, composed of students and faculty members of the Planas High School and Planas Elementary School, Katutubo Village residents, representatives from the local government of Porac, and employees of PWS and Prime Infra Foundation.
Meanwhile at Barangay Binaliw, workers from PWS Cebu planted 1,000 seedlings, including native and fruit-bearing species such as Narra, Molave, Banana, Rambutan, Agdao, Mabolo, Ylang-Ylang, Mamalis, and Guyabano.
Once the trees planted have fully grown, it will be used for bio-fencing to help improve air quality and support the environment’s biodiversity.
PWS is the waste management unit of Prime Infra, which operates large-scale materials recovery facilities in Cebu and Pampanga. It is committed to maximizing resource recovery through sorting, segregation, and recycling.
