Sustainability in hospitality: How Kuishi’s soap dispensers are leading the way

In this episode we speak to Nico Tréguer, co-founder of Roberts and Treguer and The Culpeper Family. Nico spoke about founding the group alongside his longtime friend Gareth, having had a vision for bringing more nature spaces to cities, the planned extension of The Buxton in Spitalfields, and how the site’s storytelling engages guests and the local community, how the Culpeper Family’s core sustainability ethos helped it secure its B-Corp status and why hospitality has a responsibility to educate and innovate when it comes to sustainability.

In association with

In an era marked by environmental consciousness and a collective commitment to reduce our carbon footprint, the hospitality industry stands at the forefront of change. Hotels worldwide are reevaluating their practices to become more sustainable and eco-friendly. One company making significant strides in this endeavour is Kuishi, with its innovative wall-mounted soap dispensers. In this article, we explore the growing importance of sustainability in the hotel industry, backed by statistics, and how Kuishi’s adjustable and durable soap dispensers are paving the way for a greener future.

The Green Revolution in Hospitality

As travelers become increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their choices, sustainability has become a pivotal factor in their decision-making process. The hotel industry, with its significant energy consumption and waste generation, has taken note. According to a recent study by Greenview, 74% of hotel guests are more likely to choose a hotel that demonstrates a commitment to environmental responsibility.

One area where this shift towards sustainability is particularly evident is in the amenities provided to guests. Traditional single-use plastic bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are being phased out in favour of more eco-friendly alternatives. This transition is where Kuishi comes into play.

Kuishi’s Sustainable and Adjustable Soap Dispensers

Sustainability in hospitality: How Kuishi's soap dispensers are leading the way

Kuishi has developed a line of wall-mounted soap dispensers that not only enhance the guest experience but also align with the highest standards of sustainability. These luxurious and aesthetically pleasing dispensers are not just another accessory; they represent a fundamental shift towards responsible and eco-conscious hospitality.

Reducing Single-Use Plastic Waste

According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a shocking 8 million tons of plastic end up in our oceans each year. Traditional amenity bottles are often discarded after a single use, contributing to this staggering amount of plastic pollution. Kuishi’s refillable glass dispensers offer an elegant alternative, allowing guests to use high-quality soaps without generating plastic waste.

Carbon Neutral 

Sustainability extends beyond the product’s use; it begins with its creation. Kuishi is committed to carbon neutrality, meaning that they are monitoring and taking action to reduce their environmental impact. According to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the carbon footprint of manufacturing processes is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Kuishi’s dedication to carbon neutrality goes a step further as they offset the carbon created from manufacturing, delivery to end, and the eventual end-of-life recycling, giving the hotel a truly carbon-neutral solution.

Adjustable and Durable Design

Kuishi’s soap dispensers are not only sustainable but also highly adaptable. They are designed to fit any brand of soap bottle, providing hotels with the flexibility to use their preferred products. Moreover, these dispensers are built to last for years from quality stainless steel, reducing the need for constant replacements and further minimising waste.

Custom Branding

Kuishi presents a seamless, enduring printing solution that empowers hotels to effortlessly imprint their distinctive designs directly onto their bottles. Unlike traditional labels, their printing technology ensures that your brand’s signature remains vibrant and long-lasting for years to come.

A Greener Tomorrow

Kuishi’s soap dispensers exemplify how innovation and sustainability can coexist in the hospitality industry. By reducing single-use plastic waste, embracing carbon-neutral production methods, and offering adjustable and durable design, Kuishi is helping hotels take a significant step towards a greener future.

Hotels that choose to partner with Kuishi not only contribute to environmental conservation but also enhance their own brand image. According to a study by Booking.com, 87% of global travellers consider sustainable practices to be important when choosing accommodations.

To finish up, sustainability is no longer a buzzword in the hotel industry; it’s a fundamental shift towards a more responsible and eco-conscious future. Kuishi’s wall-mounted soap dispensers, with their adjustable and durable design, are at the forefront of this movement, demonstrating how small changes in amenities can significantly reduce single-use plastic waste and carbon footprints. As hotels continue to embrace sustainable practices, Kuishi is leading the way by providing a luxurious, beautiful, and practical solution that benefits both the environment and the guest experience.
