Our Actions

Embracing the Environment

At Banyan Group, we are on a journey to integrate sustainability considerations into every facet of our business operations, and endeavour to make it easier for our guests to travel responsibly. Part of that involves leading them to discover the beauty of our world so that they, too, are inspired to take care of it.

Take Climate Action

Climate change has far-reaching impacts on our destinations including on weather conditions, water security, and biodiversity. Because we want a future where everyone can thrive, we are playing our part in making hospitality a low-carbon industry.

Reduce Waste
With global waste projected to increase by 70% by 2050, adopting a circular economy and addressing food loss and waste is a matter of urgency. We strive to minimise the waste our operations generate while maximising composting, recycling and reuse. Being responsible stewards of our destinations, we also support community waste management efforts.

Conserve Water

Water is a precious resource and safeguarding it for local communities is our priority. We are therefore committed to using water efficiently, and capturing and recycling as much of it as we can.

Respect Biodiversity

How we choose our locations, design, build, and operate our business all have the potential to impact nature. We are determined to make our impact a positive one, especially on the land and sea surrounding our hotels and resorts.

Uplift Communities

Our host communities share their culture, craft, and spirit with our guests—so we give back through volunteering, charitable giving, and community programmes that build strong individuals.

Our focus on 3 Es—Education, Engagement, and Employment—helps us maximise our impact on local communities and support disadvantaged groups.

Support Wellbeing

We believe that when our associates are well cared for, they in turn can care for our guests. So we take measures to ensure that our work environment is nurturing, inclusive, and supportive.

Care for Associates

We care for associates focusing on the fundamentals: respectful and inclusive workplaces, fair treatment and opportunities to grow. 
When associates feel secure and respected, they are better able to care for guests and act as Destination Stewards— bringing attentiveness, responsibility and respect to the places and communities they serve.
