Best Practices
 

• "Guests of the Earth" Programme offers a bed linen and towel reuse option for guests.
• More than 60% of our waste is diverted from landfill in different recycling streams.
• A rooftop beehive helps with the conservation of bees in urban areas, where they assist with pollination. Honey from the hive allows us to produce our own Cordis, Auckland honey for use in the hotel.
• We introduced a 'Green Meetings by Cordis' programme, offering sustainable meeting solutions to assist organisers in promoting positive social impact and integrating environmental considerations.
