HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 23 April 2021 – Dorsett Hospitality International has been regularly enhancing and reviewing its health and safety measures to ensure our guests and employees’ wellbeing. All 9 of our Hong Kong hotels will be stationing High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) UV-C air purifiers on guest floors to improve and disinfect air circulation. As of today Dorsett Wanchai, a Designated Hotel for Quarantine for inbound travellers (outside of China), has already placed a Smart IoT UV-C HEPA Air Purifier on every guest floor.

Dorsett Hospitality International has referenced and selected an air purifier from the list of “Information on air purifiers meeting specified specifications applicable to catering businesses” advised by The Working Group and Hong Kong government. The Momax Smart IoT UV-C Air Purifier (AP8S) has H13 HEPA and Active carbon filters which are 99.95% efficient at capturing and removing airborne particles that are no more than 0.3 microns in diameter, including harmful particulates such as PM 2.5 and other allergens, dust, mold and pollution from the air. It also provides Ultraviolet-C sanitisation which is 99.9% efficient in disinfecting the air and killing germs. The built-in PM2.5 high-sensitivity laser sensor allows us to accurately and carefully monitor the standard of air quality on each floor and ensure air is being circulated and disinfected regularly 24/7.

Since the onset of COVID-19, Dorsett has worked closely with its preferred expert partner Ecolab, a global leader in infection prevention solutions, to provide hospital-grade disinfectant designed to kill pathogens. Each hotel room has its own independent pipe, which connects to the main fan on the roof of all hotels, allowing fresh air to be drawn from the outside to each room, and through an air filter disinfected with Ecolab.

We want to offer our guests the confidence to travel with Dorsett, by understanding and anticipating their needs when it comes to health and safety and lifting their spirits as we continue to fight and recover from the epidemic. Dorsett Hospitality International will continue to closely monitor and improve our health and safety measures as well as our overall guest experience. Our designated quarantine hotels have recently launched monthly Zooms for our quarantine guests, including a private live workout with F45 Causeway Bay and a virtual wine tasting, to offer our community a chance to connect and interact throughout their stay.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 23 April 2021 – Nanyang Gifts has seen a change in their business operations during COVID19 in order to keep up with the challenges posed by the global pandemic. Through versatility and innovative approaches, the corporate gift supplier is introducing custom hampers and gift packs with home delivery as an alternative source of income.

On top of offering its extensive range of quality and affordable customised corporate gifts, the company has channeled their efforts to designing custom hampers and gift packs that can be delivered to homes. With this, organisations can purchase these wholesale care packs and deliver them to every of their employee’s homes, some even going up as many as 5000 pax.

As part of an industry that heavily relies on customer-facing activities, Nanyang Gifts has seen a decline in their sales. Their main business is dependent on events, such as dinner and dance, corporate trade shows and exhibitions, which have temporarily ceased during the onset of COVID19. Nanyang Gifts also faced another challenge wherein companies have slashed their budgets on corporate gifts for staffs and new hires.

The significant decrease in events, compounded by the reduced marketing budgets caused Nanyang Gift’s sales to take a prominent dip. The company recognises the need to implement a new approach to adapt to the changes. With the changes in business operation, they are able to see a significant growth in their sales and client base. As to date, their large clientele spans various industries, with some notable ones being Singapore Management University, British American Tobacco, Singapore Pools, IKEA, Motorola and many more.
