Water Innovation was the elimination of chemicals from our operation via our Aqueous Ozone Cleaning system a simple system of passing a charge of electricity through regular tap water which has the effect of creating a cleaning product that works better than any chemical but has the added benefit of having regular water as the only biproduct which has repercussions well beyond the shopping centres. A first for a shopping centre in the UK.
