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