WASTE MANAGEMENT

Waste Management is another key element as for the reduction
of the environmental impacts related to a residential structure
which, according to the dimensions and the nature of its activity,
produces large quantities of organic and inorganic waste.
Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda has undertaken two key
measures targeted to reduce the environmental impact resulting
from wastes produced within its structure:

  • Differentiated waste collection
  • Use of recycled materials

As regards the differentiated waste collection, it is made in
compliance with the Environment and Quality Management
System (ISO 14001) standards and according to the collection
methods defined by Gargnano. The differentiated waste
collection entails a sorting into the following waste types:
paper and cardboard items, glass, plastic, metals, compostable
waste and undifferentiated materials. This sorting is carried
out at source within all the Resort areas except for the rooms
where waste is subsequently separated by the Housekeeping
department.

In addition, an important effort within the Resort has been
made to use, where possible, recycled and/or biocompatible
materials such as:

  • Use of recycled and ecological paper for all guest letter
    papers and paper materials (e.g. breakfast request slips,
    badge holder, room directory, menus, etc…) and in the
    next future for all the various office activities
  • Use of glass bottles to limit the use of plastic items

Moreover, Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda is going to optimize
all office processes in order to limit the unnecessary use of paper
as much as possible. Hotel Management software solutions (Property
Management System) have been fully leveraged to minimize the use of
paper-based archives and paper correspondence among departments and
guests (all the offers and/or confirmations are made by telephone
or via e-mail).
