Crowne Plaza Doha West Bay switches to bulk bathroom amenities

Doha: Crowne Plaza Doha West Bay yesterday announced the start of its transition from single-use plastic bathroom amenities to bulk-size.

All single-use shampoo, conditioner, hand wash and lotion bottles will be completely replaced with refillable bulk-size counterparts across the entire hotel consisting of 317 guest rooms and public washrooms. This is in line with InterContinental Hotels Group’s (IHG) pledge to reduce plastic waste by switching to bulk-size bathroom amenities and making this a brand standard for every single IHG hotel.

Around 56,000 bottles of shampoo, 41,000 bottles of conditioner, 48,000 bottles of bath gel, 41,000 bottles of body lotion and 61,000 packs of soap are consumed annually at Crowne Plaza Doha West Bay. By engaging into IHG’s green initiative of switching to bulk-size bathroom amenities, these figures will drop dramatically.
