Sustainable Initiatives

Environmental Protection

As part of its EarthCheck Silver Status and wider sustainability strategy, Kempinski has worked with the UN Global Compact, being fully committed to the UN global corporate responsibility initiative and its signatory principles covering human rights, labour, the environment and anti-corruption initiatives and policies. Kempinski has partnered with Clean the World, an organisation that collects and recycles soap bars and bottled amenities discarded by the hospitality industry. Through the distribution of these and other donated hygiene products to people in need, the hotel chain helps prevent millions of hygiene-related illnesses and deaths, every year. Kempinski Hotels has partnered with Brita to support our hotels to implement an on-site water-bottling programme that replaces plastic bottles and filters tap water. Implementing a water dispensing alternative to plastic bottles generates immediate environmental benefits, including the reduction of plastic waste and up to seven times less carbon footprint. Kempinsk is highly committed to sourcing 100% cage-free eggs (shell, liquid and ingredient) by 2025 across all properties worldwide, wherever possible. This commitment will have a lasting positive impact on animal welfare and sustainable food sourcing practices.

Plastic free

Since 2019, hotels no longer use plastic straws and stirrers. From 2020, plastic cocktail pickers, combs, toothbrushes, and packaging for all bathroom items (hygiene set, emery board, cotton buds, cotton pads, etc.) have been replaced by sustainable alternatives, using paper wrapping or wooden alternatives, where possible. Liquid Salvatore Ferragamo bathroom amenities, which are used in the majority of all Kempinski hotels are offered in packaging made of 100% recycled plastic. Kempinski group has eliminated single-use plastic not only in rooms and bars, but also in back-of-house areas. All operating bedroom and bathroom supplies, which are delivered from preferred suppliers, are now packaged with paper-wrap, instead of plastic packaging.
