Le Méridien Gurgaon recently announced that it has installed a water bottling plant at their property. For this eco-conscious initiative, the five star luxury property has tied up with Swajal’s WaterCube, a WaterTech firm working on new and innovative technologies to make clean drinking water affordable, accessible and reliable.
The water bottling at Le Méridien Gurgaon is estimated to produce 400 bottles per hour. With this move, the property will be able to reduce 100kg of carbon emission a day. The eco-friendly bottled water is distilled and packaged in-house, is free from micro plastics and carbon emissions. “It consists of healthy alkaline mineralized water which is safe for consumption and the environment at large along with bio-plastic recyclable caps, says Sanjay Gupta, General Manager, Le Méridien Gurgaon.
Further he states that “with this initiative, the hotel aims to negate the use of plastic bottles that were consumed on a higher frequency earlier. World over, from shorelines to cities, our hotels are vulnerable to severe weather, climate change, and resource scarcity. Living by Marriott’s ideology on sustainability, over the past two years we have introduced few and brainstormed on bringing to life some long-term environmental strategy that includes investing in innovative conservation initiatives like these. Introduction of Swajal’s WaterCube, thus stands out as a significant landmark initiative taken, for a greener tomorrow.”
