Despite the size and scale of the largest hotel in the UAE and official title of World's Tallest Hotel, Emirates owned JW Marriott Marquis Dubai is leading the way in environmental excellence, gaining the coveted ISO 14001 Certification for outstanding environmental practices.

 

The JW Marriott Marquis Dubai is the first large hotel in the UAE to receive the certification, a statement of its deep commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability.

 

The renowned ISO 14001 Certification details optimum requirements for environmental management systems within companies, and certification is gained by effectively implementing policies, procedures and systems that follow and meet ISO standards. Assessed by a third-party certification body, British Standards Institution (BSI), the UK's leading inspection, verification, testing and certification organization, ISO14001 is the hallmark of an environmentally responsible company dedicated to reducing carbon footprint.

 

In order to achieve the certification, multiple waste management and sustainability systems were implemented by the luxury Dubai hotel, and all JW Marriott Marquis Dubai associates participated in environmental training and departmental audits. The primary goals of JW Marriott Marquis Dubai's environmental policy include reducing consumption of natural resources and energy, reducing global waste, improving discharges and industrial waste management and increasing respect of environmental regulations.
