Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach Achieves Green Globe Certification for 11th Consecutive Year
As proud members of Green Globe Platinum Status, we are thrilled to announce that Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach has achieved the prestigious Green Globe Certification for the 11th consecutive year. This esteemed recognition not only underscores our unwavering commitment to sustainability and responsible practices in the hospitality industry but also reflects our continuous efforts to integrate eco-friendly solutions into our operations. At Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach, we firmly believe that luxury and sustainability can coexist harmoniously, allowing us to provide exceptional experiences while being mindful stewards of our planet.
Our dedicated team has implemented a series of innovative initiatives aimed at minimizing our environmental footprint while enhancing the guest experience:
Food Waste Management:
We recognize the critical importance of reducing food waste in our operations. By implementing smart tracking systems, we optimize menu planning and portion sizes, which not only minimizes waste but also lowers operational costs. This initiative allows us to provide high-quality dining experiences while being mindful of our resources.
Partnering with EEG:
Our collaboration with the Emirates Environmental Group (EEG) is a cornerstone of our sustainability efforts. Together, we enhance glass waste management and promote tree-planting initiatives, significantly reducing landfill waste and supporting biodiversity. This partnership is integral to our mission of fostering a greener future for our community and beyond.
Supporting EEG Initiatives:
To further encourage environmental participation, we proudly support EEG’s awards program, providing gift vouchers that recognize sustainability champions. By inspiring eco-friendly practices, we aim to cultivate a culture of environmental stewardship among our guests and team members.
Sustainable Installations:
In our quest for sustainability, we have installed water savers in guest bathroom showerheads and aerators in taps to reduce water consumption. Additionally, we have replaced all natural grass areas with artificial grass, which helps minimize both irrigation water usage and maintenance.
Energy Efficiency Measures:
Our ongoing energy efficiency initiatives include conducting energy audits to identify areas for improvement and performing chilled water balancing to optimize energy use and reduce costs, all while contributing to a more sustainable operation.
Paperless Check-In and Check-Out:
In an effort to further minimize paper waste, we have implemented paperless check-in and check-out processes. This digital approach not only streamlines the guest experience but also aligns with our environmental goals, reducing our reliance on paper.
Use of Wooden Key Cards:
We have also introduced wooden key cards for guest rooms, providing an eco-friendly alternative to plastic. This small yet impactful change reflects our dedication to sustainability and our desire to offer guests a more environmentally conscious choice.
Sustainably Sourced Food:
In addition to our other initiatives, we prioritize sourcing food locally and sustainably, supporting local farmers and reducing our carbon footprint. By serving dishes made from fresh, seasonal ingredients, we enhance our culinary offerings while being environmentally responsible.
We are immensely proud of our achievements and grateful for the support of our team and guests. Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach remains committed to leading the way in sustainable hospitality, ensuring that every visit contributes to a brighter, greener future.
