Landscaping is both science and art and is an aspect of the environmental impact of a hotel that needs to be addressed. Understanding and blending the elements of both nature and construction is effective landscaping. Whether Landscaping is extensive or small consumes a large amount of water, fertilizers and herbicides and generates solid waste.

Ecogreen’s Greenscaping Operation provides cost-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for landscaping. Greenscaping operation deals with two aspects:

1.      Solid Waste Management, and

2.      Water Conservation

Solid Waste Management

Solid wastes generated by hotel offices are usually in large quantities and toxic those pollute our environment. Stationery, paper and cartridges of copiers and printers are among the normal wastes. To reduce operating expenses, implementing recycling and waste disposal programs are a must for offices. The recycling program should include categorizing the wastes into recyclable and non-recyclable wastes and treating them differently. These programs help to save resources, reduce pollution and protect both the environment and employee health.

Following are some simple solid waste control ideas:

• Avoiding unnecessary paperwork,
• Canceling junk mail,
• Reusing scrap paper for notes,
• Using electronic mail or voice mail over hard copy mail,
• Solid waste management program,
• Recycling all office paper,
• Double- sided photocopying in order to reduce paper use,
• Using refillable cartridge tones,
• Using white paper rather than colored paper for recycling,
• Using fax machines that use both plain and recyclable paper,
• Awareness and involvement of office employees in all stages of Recycling Program

Water Conservation

An incredible amount of water is used in hotels in Landscaping to keep the plants green and healthy. An efficient irrigation system lets you reduce water use and save money. Given below are some water conservation ideas:

• Checking taps, toilets for leaks frequently,
• Installing leak-detection equipment,
• Minimizing water use in cooling equipment,
• Cleaning corridors with a broom rather than hose,
• Installing water meters for monitoring high consumption equipment and areas,
• Recovering waste water from laundry rinse cycles and dry cleaning cycles for reuse,
• Establishing an employee training program about water conservation.
