Singapore is renewing its commitment to the environment by declaring 2019 the Year Towards Zero Waste. Every single business division within a hotel group that we have spoken to, from F&B, through Operations, to Facilities Management, have been given KPI’s to eliminate single-use plastics; this includes plastic bottles, plastic toiletry utensils (shampoo, toothbrushes..), plastic cutlery, etc., from all their rooms, their offices, business lounges, banquettes, functions, gyms, SPAs, etc..
Dagiz can help you be a leader in the drive toward more environmentally friendly practices by showing you innovative ways to reduce your footprint in areas such as energy use, amenities, services, gifts, etc. We can also help you understand and implement industry best practices across your organization and hotel. Our overarching proposition helps hotels bring together their teams (and budgets) from their Marketing and Communications, their Sustainability and Environmental teams, their F&B teams, with a single aim and the noble cause, of helping improve the environment. We are unique with this proposition for the global market, with short delivery times and very compelling prices.
Dagiz is already helping hotels and corporations go Green by changing their plastic water bottles to customized, beautifully designed alternatives such as tetra-PAC, glass, or reusable aluminum water bottles, and updating their minibar and bath-product offerings to ensure the packaging is sustainable and meets the new requirements.

Reducing Clients' Carbon Footprint
Case Study
THE NEED
Sustainable gifting has been in the core of our values since we dearly care for the environment. Using recyclable or recycled materials is only one measure that can be taken. Carbon neutrality is as important so when a client asked us to provide designs for their conference, we offered to help them calculate and offset the entire carbon footprint of their event. THE SOLUTION A calculation of the carbon footprint of the event, including participants’ travel, led to an amazing result. 263 tonnes of CO2 were going to be produced by delegate travel and other event activities. Our solution was to include the planting of 263 trees, to offset the enet’s carbon emission, in the event services we provided. This way, we ensures that the event stood out for its carbon neutrality. By handing the issue of CO2 emissions through carbon offsetting we can offer an environmentally friendly solution that is consistent with our clients’ Corporate Social Responsibility policy. SHARED VALUES Here's what our client's Corporate Social Responsibility Director had to say about the event: "The offset of carbon emissions for any conference organized by us fits well into our own Sustainability Program that aims to reduce our carbon footprint and positively impact the environment. Becoming more sustainable as a company and society is a journey of many small steps. This is an excellent example of such a step that brings about our values and care for the environment." |

- Shampoo / Conditioner / Body Wash (and other toiletries)
- Water bottles

Green Alternatives
Many harmful products can be exchanged for others that help the environment.
Recognizing the importance of safer products for guests and employees as well as the natural environment, many hotels have shifted to cleaning products that are made with bio-based oils and other natural cleaners. By making the switch, they are reducing the use of products with chlorine bleach and petrochemical derivatives. These more natural products have demonstrated performance and are less irritating to guests, employees, and the environment
