In a world where traditional hotels often forget about being eco-friendly, NUMA stands out by offering guests a greener experience. Instead of filling up landfills with unnecessary trash, we're integrating sustainability in each stage of the guest journey. Say goodbye to those single-use plastics—here at NUMA, we're all about reusable options like our soaps and lotions, glass cups, ceramic mugs, and even drinks served in reusable glass bottles for our awesome Numa members! Oh, and did we mention our complimentary water? It comes in Tetrapaks that you can toss into the recycling bin when you're done. Plus, our coffee and tea packaging? Totally biodegradable. But it's not just about what we use– it's also about where it comes from. That's why we've teamed up with some amazing sustainable suppliers who share our passion for incredible quality while keeping the planet in mind.
Grind: Brewing Sustainability and Ethically
Grind coffee pods aren't your average cup of joe—they're a game-changer, and here's why. They're the first in the UK to be certified home-compostable, crafted from 100% plastic- and aluminium-free organic matter (PHA). So when you brew a cup using Grind pods, you're not just getting a delicious coffee fix—you're making a sustainable choice that helps reduce the millions of pods that end up in landfills every day. And guess what? Every single NUMA room comes equipped with a coffee maker, so you can start your day, whether it's exploring a new city or tackling a new project at work, with the best coffee to perk you up.
Hoogly Tea: Sustainable Comfort in Every Cup
At NUMA, we’ve partnered with Hoogly Tea to bring you a tea experience that blends indulgent flavor with a commitment to sustainability. Inspired by hygge, the Danish concept of comfort and coziness, Hoogly’s unique teas are crafted with ethically sourced ingredients, ensuring fair wages and working conditions for farmers. This focus on quality and responsibility ensures that every cup of tea supports communities while delivering an exceptional experience.
Hoogly is equally dedicated to environmental stewardship. Recognizing the impact of packaging waste, they’ve collaborated with Parkside Flex to develop 100% compostable tea packaging. This innovative step significantly reduces environmental impact and reflects their broader commitment to sustainable practices, setting a benchmark for eco-friendly tea production in the industry.
Enjoy a thoughtful, eco-conscious tea experience in every NUMA room, complete with Hoogly’s exceptional flavors and a kettle ready for your next cup.
