Finesse Hotels is committed
to reducing its impact on the environment by continuously improving
the environmental performance of its operations and its estate.
This year, Finesse Hotels are
looking to become more proactive in the demonstration of our commitment
to sustainability and maintenance of the natural Environment.
Excess carbon emissions, wasted energy and ozone
depletion are all having a devastating effect on the Earth and as
a company we feel that it is our duty to fully commit to the introduction
and maintenance of positive environmental practices within our workplace
and will not only ensure that all of our employees are fully trained
in these practices, but will also attempt to relay the importance
of such practices to our customers, suppliers and business associates.
Where practicable, the Company will provide information
and assistance to customers on environmental issues arising from
its products and services.
Our current practices include:
• A linen reuse program in all guest rooms across all hotels.
• Usage of energy saving light bulbs reducing consumption
by 80%.
• Installation of dual flush toilets and toilet tank fill
diverters for reduction in water consumption.
• A group bulk buy initiative to reduce transportation requirements
for supply to the hotels.
• Eco training initiative to staff who are educated to turn
off electricity and heating when possible and to guests who turn
off TV's and lights in room.
• Recycling bins in all waste areas for glass, cardboard and
paper.
• Purchase 'Energy Star' appliances for all future purchases.
• Optimize insulation throughout all areas.
• Incentives offered to sustainable living / environmental
organisations who use the hotels.
• Increase the use of recyclable and renewable materials across
all sites.
• Voluntary guest carbon offset charge in place with accommodation
and conference business to contribute to tree regeneration.
• 'Fair Trade' products usage
• Group marketing literature produced on recycled paper.
• Rain water capture for flora regeneration
'Finesse Hotels are dedicated to consider the environment
in all practices, we agree to create an internal culture for environmental
awareness to all staff, suppliers and customers in contact with
the group at any stage. We agree to keep this as part of our company
development in order to review and restructure this policy for the
benefit of the environment at any stage. The environment is a priority
for our company.'
