IHG Opts for Bulk-Size Amenities to Reduce Plastic Waste

IHG is going to be switching all 5,600 of its hotels from miniature bathroom amenities to bulk-size ones in order to reduce waste and environmental impact. IHG’s properties include nearly 843,000 guest rooms worldwide, and IHG’s guests have become increasingly interested in reducing the environmental impact of their stays. Several of IHG’s hotel brands, including Six Senses, voco, EVEN, and avid properties, have already made the switch, as have 1,000 Holiday Inn Express hotels. IHG already banished plastic straws from its hotels for environmental reasons.
