Bahi Ajman Palace Hotel, managed by Hospitality Management Holding (HMH)—a subsidiary of Manafa LLC—has taken a significant step towards sustainability by partnering with AirOWater to install Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs). This innovative system extracts pure drinking water directly from the air, providing an eco-friendly alternative to single-use plastic bottles. With an annual output of 365,000 liters, the hotel now supplies water in reusable glass bottles to guests in rooms, restaurants, and leisure areas, significantly reducing its environmental impact.
This initiative aligns with the UAE’s net zero vision, reducing the hotel’s carbon footprint by 33.58 metric tonnes of CO₂ annually. It also decreases plastic production, transportation emissions, and landfill waste, while promoting a circular economy by reusing and recycling glass bottles.
The project was inaugurated by Sheikh Abdulaziz bin Humaid Al Nuaimi, chairman of Ajman Department of Tourism Development, and Mahmood Khaleel Ahmed Alsayed Alhashmi, director general of Ajman Department of Tourism Development. The event also saw the attendance of Sheikh Salem Bin Faisal Al Qassimi and Sheikh Sultan bin Faisal Al Qasimi, vice chairmen of Faisal Holding, emphasizing the project’s importance to the region’s sustainability goals.
Haytham Abdelaziz, COO of HMH, stated, “At HMH, we are committed to integrating sustainability into the hospitality sector. Our collaboration with AirOWater at Bahi Ajman Palace Hotel reflects our dedication to supporting the UAE’s vision for a greener future. By adopting advanced technology and eliminating single-use plastics, we are enhancing guest experiences while contributing to global environmental preservation. This project proves that luxury and sustainability can coexist, and we are proud to set an example for the industry.”
Bahi Ajman Palace Hotel’s efforts showcase HMH’s leadership in sustainable hospitality, setting a new standard for others to follow. The initiative not only enhances the guest experience but also reinforces the UAE’s commitment to environmental stewardship and a sustainable future.
