WasteMaster Four Seasons Sydney reduces their Green House Gases by 16.3 tonnes in first 5 months

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE

Four Seasons is one of the world’s most successful hotel companies for a reason: it does everything well. The brand has extremely high guest loyalty because it is consistent. Guests expect and enjoy beautiful design; exceptional hotel service; and outstanding dining.

THE GREEN SOLUTION

The client had an issue with disposal of organic waste. They had been dumping all waste, including organic waste, into a general waste compactor which was then sent to landfill.

Volumes weren’t monitored and the loading dock area was being clogged with compactors and waste bins as part of their push to improve the sustainability credentials of the site and the brand they wanted to start reporting the volume of all waste, especially food waste, so they could use this data to reduce their waste volumes and reduce their environmental footprint.

POSITIVE RESULTS

• 10.6 tonne diverted from landfill since installation.

• 16.3 tonne of CO2 eq reduction for the site since installation.

• Production of green energy to power 480 homes for a day since installation.

• All within a COVID regulatory environment.

• Reduced truck movements to the busy loading dock.

• Food waste is being measured and can now be managed to reduce the volume of waste before it is produced.

• Cleaner dock area with less liquid leaking into the loading bay from the general waste compactor.
