Insights

Four Seasons is a global leader in luxury hospitality and branded residential properties in 47 countries. The company consistently ranks among the world’s best hotels, resorts, restaurants and bars, and as one of the most prestigious luxury hospitality brands in reader polls, traveler reviews and industry awards.

In addition to delivering the highest quality guest experience, Four Seasons is focused on increasing operational efficiencies while embracing environmental best practices across its portfolio as part of its “Four Seasons for Good” program.

Actions

To further enhance the luxury experience delivered by Four Seasons, Ecolab delivered a range of innovative technologies aimed at streamlining operations and minimizing Four Seasons environmental footprint.

These include enhancing water quality for equipment such as cooling towers and boilers, implementing water recycling solutions that drive efficiency and safety, and proprietary laundry wash formulas designed to reduce water intensity and minimize environmental impact.

Solutions include:

3D TRASAR™ Technology for Cooling Water and Boilers: Protects equipment and maximizes cooling and boiler water efficiency for water, energy and emissions savings.¹

Solid Power™ XL: A highly concentrated machine warewashing detergent that allows for 50% more washes per capsule, reducing packaging waste by 33%.²

SMARTPOWER™: Delivers exceptional dishware cleanliness while helping to reduce the environmental impact of foodservice operations, in part through decreased wash times and less plastic packaging than traditional five-gallon plastic pails.

EcoSure™: A food safety and brand standards assessment program that helps ensure Four Seasons global food and beverage hygiene standards and best practices across its properties in North and South America. EcoSure partners to complete the Four Seasons Food & Beverage Hygiene assessment, driving safety and brand standards across properties.³

Outcomes

The Ecolab solutions adopted by this prestigious brand have helped Four Seasons reap efficiencies in its operations while protecting vital resources such as water.

In fact, these innovations have enabled the company to reduce global water intensity in day-to-day operations to conserve enough water to meet the drinking needs of more than 100,000 people. In Hawaii, efforts at Four Seasons Resort Lanai have led to 1.1 million gallons of annual water savings alone.

Ecolab has also helped Four Seasons holistically conserve water and energy, reduce emissions and waste, and enhance food safety to help ensure a future that fosters growth, business performance and impact.
