The Samty Group is making efforts to reduce single-use plastics and identify and manage environmental pollutants to solve social issues such as resource depletion and increasing waste volumes, thereby contributing to the realization of a sustainable society while also aiming to increase the value of its assets.
In support of the concept of the Act on Promotion of Resource Circulation for Plastics (enforced in April 2022), which encourages the rational use of one-way plastics, the Group is working to reduce single-use plastics at some of the hotels it operates. Hotel toiletries items (toothbrushes, razors, hairbrushes, body towels, cotton swabs, etc.) that were previously placed in each guest room are now placed together by the front desk, and guests are asked to take only what they need. By switching to this style, we aimed to optimize the quantity of plastic items used. Moreover, some of our hotels are working to achieve zero plastic items in all guest rooms, and we will strongly make efforts to shift to a recycling-oriented society, aiming to further reduce plastic items.
