See some of the venue's initiatives below.
STAY INITIATIVES
The venue's sustainability initiatives begin from the very moment a guest makes a booking with the venue, where they are invited to download the SkyCity app and prepare for a completely digital check in. On arrival, guests who have chosen to take advantage of digital check in have the ability to enjoy a completely keyless stay with the venue, avoiding the requirement for physical keys. Contemporary plastic key cards are made from PVC based plastic which is part of a highly toxic manufacturing process, so for guests that choose not to take advantage of the venue's keyless stay experience, Eos by SkyCity provide environmentally friendly bamboo key cards. In place of non-eco-friendly hard copy registration cards, the venue invites guests to complete the venue's digital e-sig on arrival if they haven’t already completed the venue's advanced online check-in.
IN-ROOM INITIATIVES
Intuitive technology and automation within each of the venue's rooms & suites plays an integral part of a stay at Eos, providing not only a seamless experience for guests, but one that is sustainable. In place of non-eco-friendly paper compendiums, each and every room and suite features an in-room tablet. Updating content and information in traditional hotel paper compendiums would have required the removal and reprint of thousands of pages each year. Automation from the in-room tablet, gives guests more control over their experience and also allows it to be fully customised to their preferences; light levels can be adjusted, temperatures changed and preferences remembered. Whilst enjoying the venue's luxurious rooms & suites, guests are encouraged to utilise the dedicated recycling bins provided, thoughtfully built-in to a custom-made drawer, replacing the small and outdated hotel bins of the past. While automatic do not disturb and make up my room buttons, controlled by the in-room tablet and displayed on a wall panel, again eliminate the need for paper signage.
WASTE REDUCTION
As a precinct, the venue continues to maintain almost 100% Waste Diversion from Landfill. Across the corporate office, a focus on working completely digitally and removing the unnecessary printing of documents at all times, is at the forefront.
RECYCLING
Wherever possible, Eos by SkyCity diverts waste from landfill, repurposing, and recycling items for future benefit. Understanding the waste process of clothing that is sent to landfills, and following a site wide uniform refresh, over 13,000 obsolete garments were donated to local charities.
