Sustainability at Karstens

At Karstens, sustainability is at the core of how we operate. We believe premium events can be delivered responsibly, with every detail designed to reduce our environmental impact.Reusable Service ware

We do not use disposable plates, cutlery, glasses, or plastic water bottles. Instead, we provide durable, reusable alternatives to reduce landfill while maintaining a high standard of service.

Eco-Friendly Products
Our venues use recycled products and environmentally safe cleaning solutions as part of our daily operations.

Sustainable Catering Practices
We work with catering partners to reduce food waste, prioritise fresh, locally sourced produce, and minimise packaging, while supporting diverse dietary needs.

Eliminating Single-Use Plastics
We have removed single-use plastics across all venues, including replacing individually wrapped mints with our creative Lolly Bars – a fun, nostalgic, and waste-free alternative.

Nespresso Pod Recycling
All Nespresso coffee pods are collected and recycled, ensuring they do not end up in landfill.

Energy & Waste Reduction
We implement recycling programs and optimise energy usage across all venues.

By embedding sustainability into every detail, Karstens demonstrates that exceptional service and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
