Confronting plastic waste

Plastic waste is a prevalent and growing issue across the planet. Addressing plastics must be a priority for all those who lead our culture and economy. At Fairmont Royal York, we’re reducing plastic waste across our city landmark, with:

* The elimination of single-use plastics across the guest experience

* Tracking plastic waste and managing recycling more efficiently with Oscar Sort at key touchpoints in the service cycle

* New circular systems for coffee, water bottles, and other vital material streams within the hotel

Plastic waste is something we must all approach with mindfulness, innovation, and vigilance. We are proud to make progress and evolve to address this issue.
