In alignment with LEED principles, the ITC Royal Gardenia is focused on delivering "Responsible Luxury." According to its philosophy of "Forward to Green, Back to Nature," the ITC Royal Gardenia employs forward-looking environmentally sustainable practices such as energy efficient operations, zero solid waste management, and green banqueting, while merging the physical aspects of the hotel with nature.
To optimize energy consumption, ITC Royal Gardenia required the most efficient chiller system that would meet the demands of the local climate and the challenging energy needs of a hotel. The product selected was Carrier's world-leading non-ozone depleting Evergreen® 23XRV screw chiller that achieves forty percent more energy savings than the U.S. industry standard. Carrier's experts partnered with the in-house technical team from the inception of the Royal Gardenia project to provide a solution that would ultimately meet and exceed the customer's requirements and set new benchmarks in efficiency for the hospitality and the heating, ventilation and air conditioning industries.
"We had an ambitious aim and strict operating benchmarks. To our satisfaction, Carrier helped us achieve both. Technological superiority, expert execution and commitment are what come seamlessly from the inventors of modern air conditioning. Together we offer responsible luxury to our esteemed guests," said Mr. Alwyn Noronha, executive vice president – projects, ITC Ltd., Hotels Division.
