Seattle, Wash. — Feb. 13, 2024 — SportsArt, the leader in sustainable fitness and green solutions for over 40 years, has been selected by BWH Hotels as an endorsed supplier to outfit fitness centers in its hotels across the United States.
Most of the SportsArt catalog is available to BWH Hotels, from its innovative ECO-POWR™ line of energy-generating cardio equipment to its self-powered ECO-NATURAL™ cardio equipment. In fact, the ECO-POWR™ Elite line was designed specifically for the hospitality industry, combining user-friendly controls, reliable durability and energy-generating sustainability with a sleek, compact form. Additionally, BWH Hotels can select from SportsArt’s strength solutions, including the full range of Selectorized and Dual Function equipment. Every piece of equipment is designed and manufactured to SportsArt's uncompromising quality and reliability standards, offering properties of BWH Hotels long-term, socially responsible fitness solutions that deliver the experience and value guests demand.Â
Among SportsArt treadmills is the ECO-POWR™ Elite G660. The G660 is the industry’s first treadmill to have its carbon footprint independently certified. Based on the expected use in a commercial facility, the G660 has the potential to become carbon-negative within its expected life cycle—meaning it will produce enough clean energy to offset more carbon than its certified footprint, for an overall positive impact on our environment. This is one more powerful way that SportsArt equipment aligns with the sustainability values and goals of BWH Hotels.Â
“Both SportsArt and BWH Hotels are deeply committed to sustainable solutions that benefit the planet and provide an excellent customer experience,” said Ruben Mejia, executive vice president, SportsArt Americas. “The full line of SportsArt cardio equipment that will be featured in the fitness centers of BWH Hotels properties consumes 32% less electricity than other brands on the market, plus it is created using a sustainable manufacturing process—allowing guests to feel good physically while also feeling good about their contributions to the environment.”
In an April 2023 press release, BWH Hotels states, “Recognizing the importance for the hospitality industry to take the lead on addressing our most significant global challenges and on establishing sustainability programs that meet evolving guest expectations, BWH Hotels is doubling down on its commitment to environmental and social responsibility across its expansive global portfolio.” Â
SportsArt has been the leader in sustainable fitness and green solutions for more than 40 years and has a decades-long history of prioritizing sustainability with its processes, policies, people, products and partnerships. Such efforts include recycling and water conservation at its Taiwan production facility. In addition, its solar power initiative uses solar panels at SportsArt’s headquarters that produce enough electricity to power the 500,000 square-foot property for half the year. Further, since January 2011, the Taiwan factory has been ISO-14001 certified, following a set of management standards that reduce negative effects on the environment. And, its sustainability measures include partnerships, like this one with BWH Hotel Group, that align with SportsArt’s commitment to sustainability and accountability—pushing for a future powered by eco-friendly efforts and initiatives.Â
