SM City Marilao has won gold award and international recognition for “Innovation in Energy and Sustainability” during the 2018 Asia Pacific Stevie Awards held recently in Hong Kong.

SM City Marilao’s 2017 e-LluminArt, as remembered, was an eco-friendly light installation at the mall that uses innovative approaches focusing on the theme of recycling, reducing energy consumption and sustainability. 

The installation was created with energy-saving lighting and recycled materials recovered from the Marilao River cleanup drive.

Curated for 2017 Earth’s Day with a chosen theme “Environment and Climate Literacy”, e-LluminArt’s core concept was to engage the audience with the eco-friendly light art installation while stressing the importance of recycling and conservation. 

E-LluminArt also shed light to Sta. Cruz Mission Parish community as the art pieces and all solar-powered LED bulbs were donated to help with the community’s lighting needs where lighting and electricity remains scarce in the area.
