Innovating for a Greener Future
We are committed to sustainability. We offer guest-room recycling and a linen/towel reuse program. Hotel-wide recycling includes paper, glass, plastic, cans, cartridges, oil, and food waste (via a digester). We use eco-friendly, LED lighting, and digital signage. Sustainable meeting packages feature linen-less tables and paperless check-in.
EV Charging Stations
Capacitor Bank Upgrade
The resort has improved its energy efficiency and power factor correction through a capacitor bank upgrade. This technical enhancement works to optimize energy consumption by ensuring electrical systems operate more efficiently. The result is a reduction in wasted energy and a lower overall electricity usage, which benefits both the environment and operational costs.
Rooftop Tank Insulation
Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa has replaced and insulated its rooftop water tanks. This measure is crucial for reducing heat gain, which in turn improves energy efficiency. By keeping the water at a more stable temperature, the resort reduces the energy required for both heating and cooling, leading to significant savings and a smaller environmental footprint.
Sewage Treatment Plant
The resort has upgraded its sewage treatment plant. This refurbishment is a key part of the water conservation strategy, as it enhances the resort's ability to recycle water. By improving water recycling capabilities, the resort can reduce its wastewater discharge and reuse treated water for non-potable purposes, conserving a valuable natural resource.
Water Dispensers Installed
To address single-use plastic waste, water dispensers have been installed in staff cafeterias and other back-of-house restaurant outlets. This initiative encourages the use of reusable bottles and containers, which dramatically cuts down on the number of plastic bottles used. It promotes a more sustainable and responsible approach to hydration for the resort's associates.
Efficient Shower Heads
The resort has replaced shower heads in all guestrooms with more efficient models. This change is designed to minimize water usage without compromising guest comfort. The new shower heads provide a satisfying experience while using less water, which is a key component of the resort's broader water conservation strategy.
Food Waste Reduction
Le Royal Meridien Beach Resort & Spa has installed food digesters to sustainably manage organic waste. These units break down food waste on-site, which significantly reduces the volume of waste sent to landfills. This program helps the resort mitigate the environmental impact of food waste and contributes to a more sustainable waste management system.
Vertical Farm
Heralding a new era of culinary freshness, our hotel is proud to introduce our very own vertical farm, a commitment to providing you with the most vibrant and flavorful ingredients possible. By growing some of the produce on-site, we dramatically reduce the need for transportation, cutting down on the carbon emissions typically associated with long-haul food delivery.
Comprehensive Recycling Programme
The resort operates a comprehensive recycling program, working with Dubai Municipality-approved contractors. This program involves the segregation and recycling of various materials, including paper, plastic, glass, and metals. By diverting these materials from landfills, the resort supports a circular economy and reduces its overall waste footprint.
Used Cooking Oil Recycling
The resort has partnered with an approved contractor to convert used cooking oil into biofuel. This initiative not only provides a sustainable way to dispose of a waste product but also supports renewable energy solutions. By transforming used oil into a valuable resource, the resort aligns with its commitment to sustainable practices and a greener future.
