    Reduced Waste Approach

    For Food & Beverage Services:

    1. Ensure No Single-Use Items for food service stations (stirrers, sugar sachets, condiments, Mentos).
    2. Prepare 75%-100% of precise catering numbers to reduce over preparation of food. 
    3. Use of industrial blast chiller for any unserved over-prepped food. 
    4. Limit use of shrink wrap and use Bio-Polymer shrink wrap when needed.

    For Event Logistics:

    1. Reduced use of paper (minimal use of writing paper for the event).
    2. Reused name badges (delegates' name badges are returned and kept for future use).
