From air to impact: Fairmont Bab Al Bahr & A1RWATER’s 700,000 litre breakthrough

At A1RWATER, we envision a future where water is not just a resource but a renewable, sustainable solution for all. Thanks to our partnership with Fairmont Bab Al Bahr, that future is no longer a distant dream—it’s a tangible reality. Together, we’ve achieved a remarkable milestone: generating over 700,000 liters of clean drinking water from the air, showcasing the transformative power of innovation and sustainability in action.

This collaboration is more than just a project for a single hotel—it’s a blueprint for a scalable, sustainable water solution that can redefine water access across the UAE and beyond. The Fairmont Bottling Facility served as a pioneering pilot, demonstrating the viability of air-to-water technology in a high-demand hospitality environment. Its success laid the foundation for our Dubai Bottling Facility, which is now operational and supplying premium, sustainably sourced bottled water to hotels, restaurants, and businesses across the region.

Why this matters

The impact of this initiative extends far beyond convenience. By producing water on-site at Fairmont Bab Al Bahr, we’ve:

• Reduced reliance on traditional water sources, easing pressure on the UAE’s natural resources.
• Eliminated the need for single-use plastic bottles, significantly cutting down on plastic waste.
• Lowered the carbon footprint associated with transporting bottled water, contributing to a greener planet.

Fairmont Bab Al Bahr’s commitment to this innovative approach has set a new standard for sustainable hospitality, inspiring other businesses to rethink how they source and manage water.

Shamsudheen Thekkepattayil, director of environmental, health & safety at Fairmont Bab Al Bahr, Abu Dhabi said: “Sustainability has been at the heart of our operations. Working with A1RWATER has allowed us to take bold steps in reducing our environmental footprint while ensuring our guests enjoy the highest quality drinking water. This partnership exemplifies responsible luxury hospitality and demonstrates our alignment with the UAE’s vision for a greener, more sustainable future.”

Scaling the vision

With the Dubai Bottling Facility now operational, A1RWATER is expanding its reach, bringing its premium bottled water to hospitality and dining establishments across the UAE. This milestone has not only transformed water sourcing in the Middle East but has also garnered industry-wide recognition. Hotel & Catering News Middle East recently featured this story, highlighting its significance for the region’s sustainability efforts. Read the full story here.
