Hotel Taking Steps Towards SustainabilityAt the heart of Egerton House, there lies an unwavering commitment towards environmental stewardship. The family-owned establishment makes concerted efforts to protect the local environment and communities, alongside taking significant strides towards sustainability. This includes a strategic alliance with The TreadRight Foundation and The TTC family of brands to make travel a matter of conservation, leadership, and community support. The hotel aligns itself with TreadRight's ethos, encapsulated by the three pillars of people, planet, and wildlife, and their vision for a more sustainable travel industry.
Egerton House takes tangible steps to operationalize its commitment to sustainability. Single-use plastics have been significantly reduced within the hotel, and Winnow Solutions aids in managing food waste and monitoring energy use. Unused toiletries are recycled with the help of Clean Conscience, and guests can enjoy Belu water, contributing to further reduction in plastic waste. Organic waste is repurposed for community garden projects in partnership with The TreadRight Foundation and Wild Entrust Africa, showcasing the establishment's dedication to local communities and the environment.
The hotel takes pride in its apiaries, providing fresh honey for guests and supporting local pollinators. It also hosts one of London's largest Living Walls, serving as a habitat for the city's bees, butterflies, and birds. With a rigorous sustainability strategy, the goal is to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, guided by targets validated by the Science Based Target initiative.
