3. Sustainability & Industry Initiatives

Major hotel brands including IHG, Red Roof and Pyramid are collaborating to prevent millions of pounds of waste from landfills while ensuring compliance with environmental regulations.

Hotels often discard old units without recycling, risking legal and environmental consequences. RoomOne provides a free recycling solution that collects, processes and reuses PTAC units, turning waste into usable materials.
- Milestone achievement: Partnership with 1,000 hotels
