Actions
To reduce its environmental impact, MVW is working with stakeholders to embed consistent environmental efficiency practices across its resorts. Key areas of focus are tracking and reducing water and energy consumption and waste.
Working with its longtime partner Ecolab, MVW implemented several technologies designed to help save water and energy, increase productivity and improve their bottom line. These include:
- 3D TRASAR™ Technology for Cooling Water – protects cooling equipment assets and maximizes cooling water efficiency for water, energy and emissions savings.
- Aquanomic™ Low Temp Laundry Program – consistently delivers white linens and substantial water and energy savings versus traditional laundry programs.
- SMARTPOWER™ Program – provides exceptional dishware cleanliness along with helping advance sustainable foodservice operations through reducing rewash and the reduction of plastic packaging versus traditional solids.
- Wash ‘N Walk™ No Rinse Floor Cleaner – this one-step floor cleaning and sanitizing process saves water and energy while enhancing productivity.
Outcomes
The partnership with Ecolab has led to increased performance without tradeoffs. MVW has achieved significant operational cost savings and reductions in water use, energy use and solid packaging waste while providing customers with the best experience possible.
