[Case Study] Hotel Universal Port & Vita (Osaka) | Combating Rising Waste Disposal Costs & Advancing SDGs with Recognized Liquefaction Technology

These official hotels of Universal Studios Japan are dedicated to promoting SDGs across their entire corporate group. They have successfully established clean, hygienic back-of-house operations that balance environmental responsibility with reducing the physical burden on their staff.

After installation, the most highly praised aspect was operational comfort: “Food waste turns into water and vanishes, making waste disposal overwhelmingly easier."

GOMISER eliminated the previously labor-intensive tasks of transporting and storing heavy food waste. Because raw garbage no longer stagnates in the back-of-house, the risks of foul odors and pest infestations have been eradicated at the source, dramatically improving the overall hygiene environment.

Beyond the substantial reduction in running costs (waste collection fees), the system directly alleviates the physical burden on cleaning and kitchen staff. The client has expressed tremendous satisfaction with these multifaceted results.

These outstanding environmental measures were highly evaluated by public institutions, resulting in both Hotel Universal Port and Hotel Universal Port Vita receiving a “Certificate of Excellence" for their significant contributions to waste reduction.

Their efforts do not stop at installing hardware. They display awareness posters inside the facility declaring “Food Loss is a Waste!", fostering a shared consciousness across the entire hotel based on the Food Recycling Law’s priorities (Suppression of Generation, Recycling, and Reduction). GOMISER’s role in “reduction (elimination through liquefaction)" acts as the ultimate line of defense for these initiatives.

This case represents an ideal installation model within the hospitality industry, perfectly balancing economic rationality (cost reduction) with corporate social responsibility (SDGs and environmental footprint reduction).

For large hotels welcoming countless guests under strict hygiene standards, discovering how to efficiently keep confined back-of-house spaces (garbage rooms) clean is a hidden lifeline of hotel management.

[Professional Know-How] Decentralized Installation in Confined Spaces and Leveraging Certification Systems

• ✓ Risk Diversification and Space Saving via Unit Division: When 300kg of processing capacity is required, installing “four GH-75 units" instead of one massive machine is a highly effective approach. Not only does this allow the equipment to be mapped into the gaps of tight spaces, but it also serves as a robust Business Continuity Plan (BCP); if one unit requires maintenance, the remaining machines continue operating without stopping the hotel’s waste processing.
• ✓ The Corporate Value of “Excellence Certification": GOMISER’s mechanism—processing and liquefying food waste in-house to drastically reduce industrial waste—aligns perfectly with the criteria of various municipal “Waste Reduction Excellence Certification Systems." Acquiring such certifications elevates the hotel’s brand value and secures support from corporate clients and inbound tourists who are highly conscious of SDGs.
