Sustainable Approach

“At Kempinski, we believe that we are conscious of our responsibility to create a sustainable yet luxurious guest experience that is respectful of the environment. Our mission is therefore to deliver uncompromising luxury while ensuring a minimal environmental and social impact.

As international luxury hotel operators, we are acutely aware of our responsibility towards the environment, put the ecological footprint at the core of our business model and we strive to alleviate pressure on natural resources by reducing energy and water consumption in our hotels. Having identified hotel operation areas with a high impact in terms of energy and water consumption, as well as waste management, we have implemented multiple technologies to optimise those areas. In this context, we have partnered with EarthCheck, one of the most reputable sustainability certification programmes in the hospitality industry.

We craft unparalleled gastronomic culinary experiences in harmony with the environment, sharing our passion for food combined with the best of local flavours. Our teams of renowned international Chefs make sure that Kempinski gastronomic excellence fulfils the company’s sustainability purpose by collaborating with sustainable sources and local suppliers. Our preference will always be to work with local producers to serve the freshest and most authentic produce.

We believe that our partners should share similar values, so we carefully choose to work only with those who have a strong sustainability vision and strong ethical values without compromising on the quality of their products and services.

In line with our goal to make our supply chain more sustainable, we have taken a stand to eliminate single-use plastic from all hotel amenities by 2021. With eight million tons of plastic waste ending up in the ocean every year, we want to make our contribution to reduce the non-sustainable use of plastic. Our efforts are focused on preventing the use of plastic in the first place, and where a sustainable alternative is not available, we reinforce recycling practices.

With people at the very heart of our business, enhancing health and wellbeing for all is vitally important to Kempinski. This is why we have made a firm commitment to helping tackle the urgent issue of infectious diseases for the benefit of local communities in the countries where we have a presence. Kempinski is one of the founders of the BE Health Association, which facilitates the prevention, detection and treatment of the diseases.

We have crafted Beautiful Performances since 1897, and strengthened by our commitment to sustainable practices, we look forward to continuing to enchant our guests for many years to come.”

Animal Welfare

“We are committed to safeguarding animal welfare in food procurement and have pledged to source 100 percent cage-free eggs – shell, liquid and ingredient – by 2025 across our entire portfolio. With properties located in what may be considered unusual or remote travel destinations, we recognise this may be achievable sooner in some countries than others, but our properties in Central European locations are leading the way on this commitment. We believe that our commitment to using cage-free eggs will have a lasting positive impact on animal welfare and sustainable food sourcing practices where we operate and we will continue to work with our properties and their suppliers to swiftly further this cause.”
