In today’s climate, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a global imperative. At Okada Manila, the five-star integrated resort is stepping up to meet this challenge head-on by embracing innovative solutions that reduce environmental impact.

As part of its commitment to a greener future, Okada Manila is replacing single-use plastic bottles with a more sustainable alternative: high-quality, filtered water bottled directly within the property.

“We are elevating our waste management protocols through the Okada Green Heart program. This bold move proves that we can prioritize the planet while still delivering a premium experience to our guests,” said Byron Yip, Okada Manila President and Chief Operating Officer.

Plastic waste remains one of the world’s most pressing environmental issues. Millions of tons of plastic are discarded into oceans and landfills daily, endangering ecosystems and human health alike.

“Okada Manila is playing its part in building a better, greener tomorrow. Through our own water filtration and bottling system, we are significantly reducing the demand for single-use plastics,” Yip added.

Okada Manila can produce 1,000 bottles of water per hour, all served in reusable glass bottles. This sustainable approach eliminates the use of approximately 2 million single-use plastic bottles annually.

This initiative was made possible through a partnership with Nordaq, a Swedish company known for its state-of-the-art water filtration technology. Nordaq’s patented system is the preferred choice of top hotels and restaurants worldwide, allowing Okada Manila to provide its guests with sustainable, premium water.

With this new system, Okada Manila can produce 1,000 bottles of water per hour, all served in reusable glass bottles. This sustainable approach not only enhances the quality of water provided to guests but also eliminates the use of approximately 2 million single-use plastic bottles annually.

Okada Manila plans to extend the use of Nordaq water across other areas of operation, fully integrating this environment- friendly initiative into all guest experiences.

“By embracing this change, we’re not just reducing waste—we’re setting a new standard for what responsible hospitality should look like,” said Rob Scott, Vice President of Hotel Operations. “It’s a win for our guests and a win for the planet.”
