Benefits of Eco-Friendly Surfacing in Hotel Environments
Enhances Indoor Hotel Air Quality
With our sustainable surface materials receiving certifications like GREENGUARD Gold, you can rest assured that we have met stringent air quality standards. Reducing harmful emissions helps create a healthier environment for guests and provides a clean, fresh atmosphere, which ensures an enhanced overall experience, promoting a relaxing, safe, and comfortable stay.
Long-Term Financial Efficiency and Environmental Impact
Opting for durable material sourced through sustainable resources reduces the need for frequent replacements and repairs of costly surfaces, reducing hotel expenses and the environmental impact. Not needing to replace the surface so frequently significantly reduces issues such as energy consumption and waste management. As a result, this reduces the environmental load and collectively lowers carbon footprints.
Aligns with Green Building Standards and Guests
We pride ourselves on developing materials that incorporate eco-friendly principles. Seeking certification for our surfacing solutions with accreditors like FloorScore® and other green building standards allows us to demonstrate our commitment to the environment. As environmentally aware hoteliers, you too can show your dedication to the environment and showcase your target and achievement to your guests, all while enhancing your brand.
