Chatrium Grand Bangkok Introduces Carbon Neutral Key Cards in Partnership with GCS Timestor
Chatrium Grand Bangkok, a symbol of timeless elegance in modern hospitality, is proud to take a significant step toward environmental sustainability through a partnership with GCS Timestor, a global leader in sustainable smart card technology. Together, we are introducing a new generation of carbon-neutral key cards, thoughtfully designed to align luxury with responsibility.
As the global challenges of climate change and deforestation continue to grow, Chatrium Grand Bangkok embraces its role in shaping a more sustainable future. Our commitment extends beyond comfort and style — it includes care for the environment and the communities we serve.
Crafted from FSC®-certified wood and bamboo, these innovative key cards reflect our dedication to responsible forest management and long-term conservation. Every card is:
- Fully plastic-free
- Durable, waterproof, and scratch-resistant
- Completely biodegradable
- Carbon neutral from production through to packaging
- Packaged without plastic, eliminating microplastic pollution
To date, over 20,000 of these eco key cards are already in circulation at Chatrium Grand Bangkok, contributing to a reduction of more than 1,220 kilograms of CO₂ emissions. This milestone highlights how small yet intentional innovations can create a lasting positive impact.
“At Chatrium Grand Bangkok, we believe true hospitality is about more than comfort and elegance — it’s about caring for our guests, our communities, and the environment we all share,” said Mr. René Balmer, Group General Manager of Chatrium Hotels and Residences. “This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to sustainability while preserving the refined experience our guests know and love.”
At Chatrium, every detail is thoughtfully considered — not only to deliver exceptional guest experiences but also to contribute meaningfully to a better world. This initiative is one of many ways we continue to align our brand with sustainable luxury, creating a future where elegance and environmental care go hand in hand.
