Waste Reduction

Reducing energy and fuel consumption

Together with employees and customers we are committed to improving our environmental performance and we work daily to reduce the energy and fuel consumption of our activity. 

With this purpose in mind, reducing technologies have been installed, equipment has been replaced and direct solar energy is used.  

Furthermore, the establishment has an automatic system (key card) that turns off the lighting and electrical appliances when guests leave the room, as well as low consumption light bulbs and electric vehicle charging stations - PCV.

One of our goals as a Group is to help reduce CO2 emissions by optimising transported freight volumes as well as continuously optimising supply routes.

Social Responsibility

We are present on a voluntary basis in the community where we operate, in order to exercise our social and environmental concern.  We create and develop projects that allow job opportunities and avoid food waste, through the donation of food products (short shelf life, towels and utensils with useful life at the end) and textiles, as well as favouring the acquisition of local and sustainable products, where the use of plastic is minimised to the maximum.

We ensure that relevant aspects of environmental protection, quality and occupational health and safety are systematically taken into consideration, as well as incorporating all organisational values and culture.                                                                                                                 

As a principle of continuous improvement, we establish intermediate objectives and targets, cyclically evaluating the results obtained and introducing, whenever deemed appropriate, the necessary preventive or corrective actions.
