Mississauga’s famous RBC twin towers in the Meadowvale area have diverted more than 1.5 million cigarette butts in the past three years to save the environment. Triovest, a commercial real estate management and advisory company that manages the RBC buildings located at 6880 Financial Dr. in Mississauga, runs one-of-a-kind recycling program under which it recycles cigarette waste. Every day, the cleaning staff at the site collects cigarette butts from dozens of ashtrays around the building and instead of dumping them into the garbage, stores them in a fire-rated container. Once a reasonable quantity is collected, it is shipped to the U.S. for recycling. “Recycling is the right thing to do and we do the same as most companies do on other sites in terms of recycling batteries, electronic waste, paper products, general waste and mixed waste,” said Lello Gugliucciello, general manager of Triovest. “But then we were looking for something different.”
