Tackling the sludge 

The treating of wastewater onsite in shopping malls could significantly reduce the water bill and bring other environmental benefits, such as water recycling and wastewater minimisation.

Major shopping malls, with dozens of restaurants in the food court and thousands of daily meals to prepare, are facing more and more wastewater compliance issues. Treating discharge properly is also important as it can lead to bad odours coming from grease traps which can put off potential customers.

Proven steps to better performance

 Emphasis on green gains, not cost-savings is key

Lessons learned in sustainablility

Guests sort, hotel earns

• Equipping hotel rooms with recycling bins reduces overall hotel waste by 40 %
• Savings carry over to associated waste-management costs too 

Statistically, the average hotel guest throws away about two kilograms of waste - paper, plastic, cardboard and cans - every day. The same guest would more than likely recycle all that at home. 

Guest rooms, the big water consumer

Thinking social, thinking green...

The Forum Hotel in Sofia is a luxury four-star property in operations since 2003 following the renovation of a former hotel. In recent years, greater emphasis in the hotel has been placed on improving its corporate social responsibility (CSR) by investing in its workforce and more socially responsible practices reflecting the environment and surrounding community.
