Sustainability in Action: How POR Thapae Gate Prioritizes Recycling

porthapaegate
At POR Thapae Gate, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a way of life. From the very beginning, we’ve been committed to creating an eco-friendly environment that aligns with our philosophy of simplicity and responsibility. One of the key pillars of our approach is recycling. It’s a small action with a big impact, and we’re proud to share how we’ve integrated recycling into our daily operations.

Tackling Waste with Purpose


As a hotel, we see firsthand the volume of waste generated daily—from single-use plastics to packaging materials and leftover food. It’s easy to overlook where this waste goes, but for us, ignoring it was never an option. We’ve made it our mission to tackle waste at its source and ensure that what can be recycled, is recycled.

Recycling in Action


In 2023, we officially launched our recycling program at POR Thapae Gate. Our team worked tirelessly to create a system that ensures waste is properly sorted and sent to the correct facilities. Here’s how we categorize and manage our recyclables:

  • Plastic

  • Glass

  • Aluminum

  • Sign Bottles

  • Leo Bottles

  • Cardboard Boxes

  • Paper

  • Metal

  • Zinc

  • Chang Bottles


Recycling Achievements

From 2023 to 2024, our efforts have yielded impressive results:

  • 1,786 beer bottles recycled
  • 452 kg of cardboard boxes recycled
  • 332 kg of paper recycled
  • 48 kg of metal recycled

Giving Back to Our Team


The success of our recycling program wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of our team. They are responsible for ensuring these items are properly sorted and transported to recycling facilities. As a token of appreciation, all profits from recycling go back to the team. Their hard work and commitment to sustainability are the driving forces behind our progress.

Looking Ahead


These numbers reflect the past two years, and we’re excited to see how much more we can achieve in 2025. With continued effort and the support of our guests, we aim to further reduce waste and make an even bigger impact.

A Shared Responsibility


At POR Thapae Gate, we believe that every small action contributes to a larger impact. By prioritizing recycling, we’re doing our part to protect the planet while providing our guests with an exceptional stay. Together, we can create a future where travel and sustainability go hand in hand.

If you’re passionate about eco-friendly travel, we invite you to stay with us and experience a hotel where sustainability is more than just a practice—it’s a promise.
