Latest developments from organisations across the profession Sign of the times PayByPhone has teamed up with UK-based print manufacturer Gardners to create pollution-eating signage for its award-winning environmental initiative, Meters for Trees. The new posters and stickers will use ReActivair, a coating technology thats been developed to reduce harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) pollutants in the air. ReActivairs coating is made of naturally occurring minerals, and purifies air by using energy from sunlight to break down harmful pollutants and odour molecules. It also keeps the printed surfaces of the stickers and posters cleaner for longer. Anthony Cashel, marketing and operations director for PayByPhone UK, said: We are very excited to have created truly green signage for Meters for Trees thanks to the ReActivair ZatPark welcomes new recruits Unity5, the software technology business behind ZatPark and other parking tech products, has announced a series of new appointments to bolster its workforce.

We launched Meters for Trees in 2019, to help our clients reduce carbon emissions and meet their environmental goals by removing their parking machines in favour of our cashless parking-payment technology. This new pollution-eating signage takes Meters for Trees to another level by further improving air quality in the communities in which we work. Signage using ReActivair technology started to be rolled out for new installations in July. Commenting on the deployment, James Morris, sales director for Gardners, said: Despite seeing improvements in air quality in the early stages of lockdown, we now know that it is returning to pre-pandemic levels, especially in busy city centres.
