A leading provider of concessions, premium culinary services and facilities and retail store management for 14 major league and 10 minor league teams, ARAMARK said it is working closely with many of its Major League Baseball partners to enhance existing in-stadium environmental efforts as well as implement new programs to reduce environmental impact.
ARAMARK will implement and expand practices at ballparks such as Citizens Bank Park, Coors Field, Fenway Park, McAfee Coliseum, Minute Maid Park, Oriole Park at Camden Yards and PNC Park. These practices include:
-- Recycling glass, plastic and cardboard generated from game day preparation.
-- Using bio-degradable service ware and cups and napkins made from 100% post consumer fiber.
-- Recycling frying oil to be used as bio-diesel fuel.
At Fenway Park, Coors Field, Minute Maid Park, PETCO Park, Safeco Field and Turner Field ARAMARK Facility Services runs the ballparks' recycling programs, which include collecting, separating and removing recyclables. As part of its housekeeping operation at these stadiums, ARAMARK uses "Green Seal" certified cleaning solutions, supplies and equipment for many applications.
"ARAMARK recognizes the importance and value of incorporating earth-friendly practices in the communities in which we live, work and serve," said Liza Cartmell, group president, ARAMARK Sports & Entertainment. "Our environmental strategy provides us with an opportunity to reduce our carbon footprint, while continuing to deliver exceptional ballpark services and menus for our baseball partners and fans."
