HILTON BATUMI

Within the framework of the project, the company allocated containers marked for waste separation and small four-section bins, and purchased and installed paper waste processing (pressing) equipment. An active information campaign was held and a special seminar was organized in order to raise the awareness among employees about waste separation. Even more, the Hilton's general manager provided project related documents to the managers of other hotels in Batumi so that they could implement similar initiatives themselves.

Hilton is the rst hotel in Georgia which follows the green concept. As a result of the project, about two tons of paper waste was pressed for secondary use. The employees separate the waste, the amount of waste and rubbish has dropped and waste location points were put in place. The experience of Hilton Batumi was shared by the European network of Hilton hotels as best practice vis-à-vis environmental preservation.

Hilton continues with the project's implementation and actively calls upon other companies to replicate their example.

„Waste separation is a part of Hilton Batumi's corporate social responsibility and, moreover, it is our top priority to contribute to saving the Earth“.
