Initiatives for SDGs

On December 28, 2023, Grand Nikko Tokyo Bay Maihama has been certified as a "4 Gyoikou-Zakura (a facility that improves the local environment as the number of customers increases)", the second category from the top out of five levels of Sakura Quality An ESG Practice (Sakura Quality Green), which certifies accommodation facilities that implement SDGs initiatives.

Grand Nikko Tokyo Bay Maihama will continue to contribute to the achievement of the SDGs toward the realization of a sustainable society.

As one of the SDGs initiatives, Grand Nikko Tokyo Bay Maihama will strive to reduce plastic products in line with “Law Concerning the Promotion of Resource Recycling of Plastic”, which effected in April 2022.
We are replacing the guestroom amenities and cutlery for delivery with alternative materials.
However, since it is not in accordance with the purpose of the law to dispose of conventional plastic products, we will gradually switch over to alternative materials.
For the time being, alternative materials will be used for items used in guest rooms on three of the nine guest room floors, while conventional plastic products will be used on the other floors.
We plan to complete the switchover to alternative materials as soon as the stock of conventional products runs out.
All-Day Dining “Le Jardin” has switched to straws made mainly from renewable organic resources (biomass) in an effort to reduce plastic waste.
In fiscal 2022, we have taken measures to reduce the weight of plastic used per customer by 15% from the fiscal 2021 level by switching from conventional products to products using alternative plastics for the five guest amenity items subject to the specified plastic use products.
As a result, we have achieved a 25% reduction.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our customers and partner companies for their cooperation.
We will continue our efforts to promote resource recycling.
Your continued understanding and cooperation will be greatly appreciated.
SDGs, which stands for Sustainable Development Goals, are international goals for a sustainable and better world by 2030, adopted unanimously by member countries at the UN Summit in September 2015.
