Innovative Waste Management
Kurumba operates one of the Maldives’ most advanced recycling centres. Glass is ground and reused in construction, plastics and metals are shredded for recycling, and green waste is mulched for use in the gardens. Kitchen waste is composted within hours and repurposed across the resort and nearby islands.
Energy Efficiency Initiatives
The resort has invested in solar water heating, energy-efficient air conditioning and lighting, and a smart generator management system to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Water Conservation and Desalination
Fresh water is produced on-site using advanced desalination systems. The resort also treats water with UV technology to ensure it’s safe for drinking, bathing, and cooking.
Community Engagement and Education
Kurumba supports local initiatives like early childhood development programmes and partners with organisations to enhance education and wellbeing for children in nearby communities.
