Ski Dubai Mall Is World’s Biggest To Get High Sustainable Certification

The Majid Al Futtaim which now runs four indoor snow centres says it is prioritising long-term sustainable growth aligned to science-based targets and validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in an effort to cut its impact on the environment.

The Mall of the Emirates, which is home to Ski Dubai, was presented with a LEED Platinum Award for Operations and Maintenance following its certification in late 2022, making it the largest mall in the world to receive such certification.

The Group says that it remains on track to become Net Positive in carbon and water by 2040 and through its commitment to phase out single-use plastics, supported by Government-mandated taxation in the UAE, Majid Al Futtaim has so far achieved 82% reduction in the consumption of single-use plastic.

Earlier this summer Majid Al Futtaim – Entertainment expanded its Global Snow business, opening Snow Abu Dhabi, the capital’s first indoor snow park and the Group’s fourth indoor snow park.
