A Living Sustainability System for Hotel

The DET Sustainability Stamp breaks sustainability into 27 focused areas, from energy and water efficiency to food waste, biodiversity, and community engagement. Each area has clear evidence requirements, update frequencies, and departmental ownership. It means sustainability isn’t handled by one ‘green champion’; it’s shared across engineering, housekeeping, HR, food and beverage, and finance. Every month, quarter, and year, teams contribute to a single, organised system that maps performance and accountability. It’s not a campaign. It’s an operating plan.

Why Do We Keep Operating Hotels with Yesterday Thinking?

We are still approaching food and beverage through the same old habits: the same way of designing the day, the same way of shaping outlets (venues) , the same measures of success, and the same assumptions about what luxury, four-star, or lifestyle hospitality must look like.
