Sustainability for us, is more than a corporate goal—it’s a shared passion and responsibility we hold close to our hearts. This year, as we present our 2024 Sustainability Report, we reflect on the collective steps taken by our team, guests, and partners to protect and nurture our planet. This report isn’t just a list of achievements; it’s a celebration of the meaningful progress we’ve made together toward a more sustainable and thriving future.
Highlights of OXO Living’s Sustainability Journey
1. Carbon Footprint Reduction:
OXO achieved a groundbreaking 61% reduction in carbon emissions per guest in 2024 compared to 2023. With emissions per guest dropping from 150 kg to 57.93 kg and per guest per night from 60 kg to 23 kg, this milestone underscores the impact of sustainable energy management and guest engagement. The transition to renewable energy, alongside education on sustainability practices, played a pivotal role in achieving this feat.
2. Water Efficiency Excellence:
Our water consumption per room decreased by 8.8%, from 120.12 m³ in 2023 to 109.57 m³ in 2024. This was accomplished through the installation of water-efficient fixtures, real-time monitoring systems, and awareness programs for both guests and staff. OXO’s water usage remains significantly below the global average of 166.4 m³, highlighting our leadership in resource management.
