The Alpencamp Kärnten sets the standard for eco-friendly practices in hospitality, boasting an impressive array of certifications such as the Platinum LEED Certification, EU Ecolabel, and Klimabündisbetrieb. The structure, made from sustainable materials, capitalizes on natural light and air flow, reducing the need for artificial heating, lighting, and air conditioning. This commitment to environmental efficiency extends to features such as a green roof, rainwater collection systems, triple-glazed windows, and low-flush toilets.
The property also shows an unwavering commitment to waste management, environmental education, and energy efficiency. Waste is separated into at least three categories with organic waste composted, and wastewater treated for reuse. Every staff member receives training on the environmental policies, and the property uses LED lighting and automatic power systems to reduce energy usage. Additional amenities including bicycles for guests and electric car charging stations are provided, and the on-site restaurant prioritizes locally sourced ingredients and offers a vegetarian menu. By staying at Alpencamp Kärnten, guests are not only choosing a luxurious experience but also participating in a proactive effort to protect and sustain the environment.
