Our Barcelona holiday rental management company is very proud to announce that we have received the Biosphere Sustainable Certification 2024. This distinction recognizes our commitment to sustainability and encourages us to continue taking steps to achieve a clean and healthy environment. We know that by adopting sustainable practices in temporary rental housing, owners can reduce costs and attract tenants concerned about their environmental impact, so today we explain the areas in which we are making progress.
SDG COMPLIANCE
We began the year with the good news that the Responsible Tourism Institute has awarded us a Biosphere Certification recognizing our commitment to meeting the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As a company in the tourism sector, at Lodging Management we know that the only way to help the environment is to take concrete action, and the Biosphere Certification allows us to measure and verify our efforts in the areas of responsible production and consumption, innovation and infrastructure, health and wellness, affordable and non-polluting energy, gender parity and the reduction of inequalities, among others.
PLANTING TREES
Together with the Tree-Nation platform, we have started to plant our own forest and actively participate in a macro reforestation project that involves companies and citizens from all over the world. Responsible for 17% of carbon dioxide emissions, deforestation is directly related to climate change and species extinction; that’s why we decided at Lodging to reduce our environmental impact by planting trees. Your visits to our website can help us in this pursuit to capture more CO2 with our forest and have a really significant impact. Join this initiative in our Tree-Nation space and let’s fight together for the decarbonization of the planet.
SUSTAINABLE TRAVEL
Lodging Management’s employees travel by bicycle. Thanks to an agreement with Kleta, a subscription-based bicycle rental company, we’ve embraced sustainable travel without emissions or noise pollution. In addition, an alliance with Cabify allows us to offer exclusive discounts to our guests on transfers to the airport or train station. We have chosen this company because it is working consistently to replace its fleet with electric vehicles and significantly reduce its emissions.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our Barcelona holiday rental management company is convinced that the implementation of energy efficiency measures has to be one of the cornerstones in the management of properties. These measures help owners save money and contribute to a better use of natural resources. In our properties, guests will find LED lighting systems and motion sensors, energy-efficient appliances, thermal insulation that reduces the need for heating and cooling, low-consumption faucets and plastic-free amenities, among other technological advancements. In addition, we promote the implementation of smart home devices through the company Control A. These allow for better control of our electrical systems and the quick detection of water leaks and smoke.
We know, as a Barcelona holiday rental management company, that the sustainable approach is not only timely, but an opportunity to change the way we relate to the planet by creating healthier and more efficient practices. We look forward to continuing this journey in all the properties we manage.
