COLOURS OF OBLU is committed to sustainable operations with considerable steps taken to minimise the impact on the island ecosystem and support the surrounding local communities sustainable practices are found across the resorts.
Only bio-degradable chemicals are used for cleaning in villas, laundry, kitchens, and other operational areas.
The potable water comes from an in-house saltwater desalination plant and drinking quality water is sourced through on-site water bottling plants, served in attractive reusable glass water bottles. This initiative significantly reduces plastic waste – we avoid the disposal of more than 100,000 plastic water bottles from each resort per year!
The efficient waste management system is built around a ‘Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle’ approach. All resorts use twin-chamber incinerators for effective combustion of waste with minimal environmental impact. And, the use of state-of-the-art compactors and bottle crushers reduces the waste to a minimum before organised disposal.
Equal importance is placed on disposing of wastewater responsibly, with an in-house water treatment plant. The treated wastewater is reused for irrigation and gardening, in an energy-efficient process.
