Melbourne, Australia November 10, 2011 – Renowned explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau will make a special appearance at the Concept Amenities Booth (#2657) at this year’s International Hotel, Motel & Restaurant Show (IHM&RS). The event will be held on Monday, November 14 between 10 am – 2 pm at the Javits Center in New York City.
The son of legendary oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, Jean-Michel founded Ocean Futures Society - a non-profit marine conservation and education organization - in 1999 to carry on his father’s pioneering work and serves as a global diplomat for the environment. He has also produced more than 80 films and recently helmed the award-winning television series Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ocean Adventures for PBS.
The famed environmentalist will be on hand at IHM&RS for the launch of Concept Amenities’ The Luxury Collections, a line of six retail-branded, environmentally-responsible guest amenities that include Jean-Michel Cousteau by Maricoid. During his appearance at the show, Mr. Cousteau will sign copies of his book, My Father, The Captain, and will attend the HOTELS’ Hotelier of the Year awards party later that night from 6-9 pm.
Jean-Michel Cousteau by Maricoid is a unique collection of guest amenities inspired by the beauty of the oceans and reflects Cousteau’s life-long commitment to the environment. The branded collection softly mirrors the colors of the ocean and has distinctive features that include:
- Liquids and soaps that are specially formulated with 100% organically certified Seaweed extract. And, all ingredients are paraban free and biodegradable.
- The packaging is recyclable and completely biodegrades in landfill leaving nothing behind that’s harmful to the environment.
- Vegetable based soaps contain raw materials sourced from established plantations
- Moisturising lotions feature Grapeseed oil and Organic Aloe Vera extract
- Fragrance notes include tropical coconut and apple, and a classic badedas fragrance for bath gel.
The comprehensive line of liquids, soaps and accessories will compliment any luxury hotel accommodation and suit all guest bathroom amenity needs including nourishing shampoo, hydrating conditioner, soothing body lotion and relaxing body wash in 40ml (1.4) fluid ounce sizes and soaps in 20, 40 & 65gm sizes.
