We Have High-Performance Facilities

Within our building, we focus on energy and water conservation, waste recycling, and using green products and materials. High performance facilities provide a foundation for a successful green meetings program. For Example…

Millions of gallons of water are saved each year through several water savings initiatives such as water flow controllers, low-flow shower heads, an automatic irrigation system with precipitation sensors, and water saving defrosting systems. Over 60 recycling points for collection and separation of recyclable materials and 6 food digesters allow us to recycle more than 4,000 tonnes of waste materials and convert more than 500 tonnes of food waste into grey water each year. 90% of our properties’ lighting uses energy efficient bulbs including the latest LED technology; The St. Regis Macao, Cotai Central, and The Parisian Macao are our first ` 100% LED lighting properties. Some of our outdoor light poles at Sands Macao are equipped with micro wind turbine systems which enable them to be off the electricity grid. Our intelligent building management system constantly monitors our utilities, allowing us to reduce our overall energy consumption and respective carbon footprint. As an Integrated Resort, we have everything under one roof. The meeting and convention space is only a 5-minute walk from the hotel and with bus transportation located conveniently onsite, it will help reduce your carbon footprint.

We Provide Standard Sustainable Practices

Sustainable practices are already seamlessly integrated into our daily operations, adding value to your events at no additional cost.

Our Standard Sands ECO360 Meeting settings include central placement of writing materials, water stations, reusable crockery and glassware, whiteboards, and lighting sensors in the meeting rooms; all helping you reduce the environmental impact of your event while providing you with the highest quality of service.

Here’s What Our Clients Say... “Since 2007, International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) has been committed to the ‘green’ cause. From an energy-efficient awards event to the world’s first ever green carpet, we continue to create awareness and voice environmental concerns through prominent celebrities from the Indial film fraternity who vehemently support our cause at the IIFAs. We strongly support The Venetian Macao’s contribution towards environmental preservation and will implement these plans at the upcoming VIDEOCON D2H IIFA Weekend.”
