Sun Siyam Iru Fushi is turning damaged umbrella fabric into fashionable shopping bags. This stride towards environmental stewardship is just one of its many eco-friendly initiatives. Since launching this initiative in September 2023, Sun Siyam Iru Fushi has managed to repurpose fabric from 35 umbrellas.
These meticulously crafted beach bags have been distributed among new team members. This effort embodies Sun Siyam Iru Fushi’s ethos of integrating eco-friendly initiatives into every facet of its operations. In addition to reflecting a shared sense of responsibility and care for the environment, this step also highlights the resort’s holistic approach to sustainability.
Each of these sustainable bags tells a story, which showcases the dedication of Sun Siyam Iru Fushi to minimize its environmental impact. The resort not only reduces waste but also fosters a deeper connection between sustainability and opulence.
We are thrilled to integrate sustinability into our daily practices and extend our commitment to environmental responsibility. The upcycled beach bags not only showcase our dedication to minimizing waste but also reflect our belief in the importance of small yet impactful initiatives in creating a positive change in our community, says Haanif Abdulla – Training, Health & Safety Manager at Sun Siyam Iru Fushi.
