Circular Economy

Bluestone is committed to reducing the environmental impact of our operation.

We are doing this by reducing material consumption, increasing reuse and building circular economy initiatives with our community partners.

• Since 2022, Bluestone’s annual waste to landfill has been less than 1% of total waste volume
• Since 2017, waste per guest has been reduced by 16%
• First business in the world to recycle nappies, and the first to use the recovered material as an additive for asphalt during construction. ~500,000 nappies equalling 72 tonnes of sanitary waste diverted for recycling annually.
• Kitchen and plated food waste was reduced by 40% in 2024.
• Sofas and other items which are due for replacement but still have life left in them are distributed to local community organisations.
• We worked with our linen suppliers to reduce 70,000 plastic bags each year
• Building water fountains and stopping the sale of bottled water eliminated 50,000 plastic bottles each year.
