Our Social Goods
THE OYSTER SHELL UPCYCLING PILOT PROGRAMME
Led by Great Eagle Group, The Langham, Hong Kong and Eaton HK worked
with Green Island Cement Group on this ground-breaking cross-sector project. We
collected oyster shells from hotel restaurants and implemented effective
cleaning, storage and logistics processes before delivering the shells to the
cement manufacturing plant where they replaced limestone as a sustainable raw
material for cement production.
The pilot programme’s conclusion marks a significant milestone in the
advancement of waste reduction, circularity and resource efficiency; as well as
in the promotion of sustainable dining experiences. We hope that more hotels
and restaurants will join us to divert discarded oyster shells from landfills.
