The Sustainable Hospitality Alliance (the Alliance) is pleased to welcome Rabmer Group to their affiliate membership, as they become the latest member to join the network for responsible hospitality, alongside hotel companies Whitbread and The Merrion.
These organisations will work together, along with the Alliance’s other affiliate and hotel members, to leverage the collective power of the industry to make a lasting positive impact for the planet and its inhabitants. With Rabmer Group, the Alliance now has 9 affiliate members, which represent other partners in the hospitality value chain to further drive collaboration on industry sustainability.
Consisting of seven companies, Rabmer Group operates in three main areas: construction, real estate, and environmental technology. Having been active in environmental technology worldwide for almost 30 years, Rabmer particularly focus on water, wastewater, and renewable energies.
A quarter of the world’s population face “extremely high” levels of water stress1 – yet, in some locations, tourism uses over eight times more water per person on average than the local population.2 What’s more, tourism accounts for approximately 8% of global emissions,3 1% of which is attributed to the hotel sector.4
In response to this imbalance, as the hospitality industry works to play a key role in the global transition to a sustainable future, Rabmer’s experience in innovative environmental technology will provide crucial insight and inspiration for the Alliance and its donor members, as we build momentum towards a more regenerative sector that gives back more than it takes.
