Water Stewardship
Fresh water is one of the world’s most crucial resources. We ensure we conserve as much of this as possible through our comprehensive approach, anchored in optimising our water efficiency, reuse and recycling.
Water Efficient Technologies
From installing low-flow fixtures to enhancing operational efficiency, we ensure our water footprint is kept to a minimum.
Drop by Drop Project
We support local organisations that work to increase water resiliency and reinvigorate ecosystems.
Water Efficient Technologies
Recognised as one of Singapore’s leading water-efficient buildings, Marina Bay Sands is designed with over 400 different types of water-efficient fixtures, replicated in the thousands across resort.
From striking architectural features that collect rainwater to water-sensitive landscaping measures, highly efficient dishwashers and kitchen equipment, no effort is spared in improving our procedures and minimising water consumption.
One of our most impressive water projects is our air-conditioning condensation recovery project. Since 2016, Marina Bay Sands collects and recycles water from 3,000 air-conditioning units across the three hotel towers. This has enabled us to save an average of 77,000 litres of water per day, as the recycled water is used for landscaping and irrigation of plants at the hotel.
Support Local Water Champions
A collaboration between Las Vegas Sands and the WASH Foundation, The Drop by Drop project reinvests capital from Sands’ water stewardship savings into innovative projects by local water champions. Funded projects aim to increase local water resiliency, reinvigorate ecosystems, incubate new water solutions and engage the community.
Since its inception in 2019, we have driven several innovations, including the development of a plastic recovery system with Seven Clean Seas, and the launch of a five-part virtual learning series with Conservation International (CI) Singapore. The project’s grant in 2023 also funded the “10 for Zero” Awards by CI Singapore, which recognises 10 young environmental leaders in their pursuit towards a future with zero-waste and net-zero emissions.
