Actions

Nalco Water, Ecolab’s water and process management business, partnered with Loews Hotels & Co to deliver solutions designed to reduce water, energy, emissions and waste. These include 3D TRASAR™ Technology, which minimized scale and corrosion in the company’s cooling towers to enhance asset protection and efficiency while dramatically reducing water and energy usage.

Loews Hotels & Co has also realized sustainability and safety benefits by switching from single-use drums of product to Nalco Water’s PORTAFEED™ delivery service. The system helps reduce waste by providing chemistry in reusable containers and enhances worker safety by simplifying chemical handling through “hands-off” dispensing.

In addition, the company transitioned from using traditional liquid products to 3D TRASAR solid concentrates, which has reduced plastic waste, eliminated the need for employees to lift heavy pails and helped minimise exposure risks.

Ecolab and Nalco Water also deliver a wide range of solutions to Loews Hotels & Co including water safety programmes for its pools and spas, the SMARTPOWER™ warewashing programme, which helps reduce wash time, water usage and water temperature, and Oasis Pro™ Housekeeping solutions, which reduce plastic packaging and improve productivity through easier, faster cleaning processes.

Outcomes

The simple and resource-efficient solutions provided by Nalco Water and Ecolab helped Loews Hotels & Co save money, water and energy and reduce waste, enhancing its sustainability efforts while continuing to provide a stellar experience to its guests.
