Totally Green, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: TLGN), a
pioneer in organic food processing systems and compostable
packaging alternatives, has installed its revolutionary ORCA Green
Machine™ in the main kitchens at the BOK Center and Tulsa
Convention Center, which are both managed and operated by SMG, a
worldwide provider of entertainment and convention venue
management.
The BOK Center and Tulsa Convention Center purchased the ORCA
Green Machine to establish an on-site rapid food composting
solution to complement SMG-Tulsa's existing sustainability
initiatives and reduce the amount of organic refuse going to
landfills, which then produce harmful refuse-produced methane gas
into the environment.
SMG's in-house food & beverage company, SAVOR, was
responsible for adding the equipment in both venues. According to
Kelly Mott, director of Food and Beverage at SMG-Tulsa: "Our recent
sustainability initiatives for the 565,000-square-foot BOK Center
and the 310,000-square-foot Tulsa Convention Center make a huge
impact on the community. We are committed to the effort of caring
for our environment by developing methods to reduce, reuse and
recycle in our everyday routines."
The BOK Center ranked #9 in the United States and #27 in the
world for top arena venues, as ranked by Pollstar Magazine for
first quarter 2011. Last year, the BOK Center finished as the #10
arena in the US for ticket sales. It has also been nominated for
Arena of the Year by Pollstar Magazine, Academy of Country Music
and the International Entertainment Buyers Association.
Tulsa Convention Center is a multi-purpose venue in Tulsa,
Oklahoma. With a 102,600-square-foot exhibit hall, 35 meeting
rooms, an 8,900-seat arena and Oklahoma's largest ballroom, the
Tulsa Convention Center contains a total of 310,000 square feet of
meeting space all under one roof.
"It is very rewarding to deliver our 'green' solution to two
local venues that are right in our back yard," said Rob Phillips,
president of Totally Green. "We expect this new partnership with
SMG to enable market penetration of the ORCA Green Machine solution
to other large venues that SMG currently manages, as well as
establish another vertical for our sales team."
SMG operates 98% of the publicly-owned exhibition space operated
by private companies in North America. The convention and
exhibition facilities currently managed by SMG include more than 10
million square feet of space. The facilities range in size from
30,000-square-foot exhibit halls, to the 1,000,000 plus square feet
of Reliant Park in Houston and The National Trade Center in
Toronto. More than 30 million people attended thousands of
convention and exhibition events at its facilities last year. These
included shows of all shapes and sizes: consumer shows, trade
shows, conventions, corporate meetings, product launches and other
special events.
SMG's Convention Center Division not only facilitates these
events, but also helps the facilities attract more shows through
its day-to-day industry relationships. SMG works closely with the
Hotel Industry, Convention and Visitor Bureaus, Industry
Vendors/Suppliers, as well as Labor Unions to facilitate the event
and deliver the best possible environment for your convention or
trade show.
