SM Expands ‘Green Recycling Machine’ Network to Boost Nationwide Recycling

Greener Malls, Cleaner Cities: SM Scales Up Green Recycling Machine Footprint

What if your used plastic bottle could become part of something much bigger? Through the right machine it can!



SM Cares, through the SM Green Movement, has partnered with recycling technology company Sparklo to deploy SM Green Recycling Machines to 30 SM Supermalls across the country. Through the nationwide deployment across SM’s network of most-loved malls, responsible waste disposal becomes easier, more engaging, and more rewarding for mallgoers.




The reverse vending machines empower customers to deposit eligible plastic bottles in exchange for rewards. The partnership turns simple mall, customer visits into pathways to help support the SM Green Movement through responsible waste management and segregation to divert waste away from landfills and maximize resources through recycling.

SM Green Recycling Machines are now available in key locations across Metro Manila, Batangas, Laguna, Cavite, Bulacan, Pampanga, Baguio, Pangasinan, La Union, Rizal, and Cebu.

Each plastic bottle placed in the machines represents more than properly managed waste. It is a small but meaningful choice that helps keep recyclable materials in circulation, supports responsible consumption, and brings communities closer to an SM Waste-Free Future.

The partnership forms part of the SM Cares Environmental Sustainability Program under its Waste Management Pillar. It complements SM’s existing circular economy and waste management efforts, including the Trash to Cash Program and the Plastic Waste Collection Program.

Through initiatives like these, SM Cares seeks to make sustainable living easier to understand and practice. Rather than asking people to make sweeping changes all at once, the SM Green Recycling Machines show how everyday actions—repeated by families, students, young people, and communities—can collectively create lasting environmental impact.


With Sparklo’s technology and the reach of SM Supermalls, recycling becomes more than a responsibility. It becomes a convenient and rewarding habit that Filipinos can carry into their daily lives—one plastic bottle and one better choice at a time.
