Sustainable Travel

Hotel Green Initiative

The natural environment is the most precious asset in tourism. In 2019, LDC Hotels & Resorts took the lead in aligning with government policies and industry trends, taking the first step towards Go Green. We implemented environmentally friendly strategies such as reducing plastic usage and waste within our properties, and the following year, we began implementing carbon management measures. Through continuous communication with our staff and guests, our commitment to environmental sustainability has become ingrained in the DNA of LDC Hotels & Resorts.

Eliminating Single-Use Amenities

The change we're making isn't just about replacing a toothbrush or a comb; it's about transforming your attitude towards travel. Since 2020, LDC Hotels & Resorts has ceased providing single-use amenities proactively. Instead, we offer shower essentials in reusable containers, encouraging guests staying for two nights or more to opt out of changing bed linens and towels. We invite travelers to join us in reducing unnecessary resource consumption, leaving behind only the most beautiful scenery and memories during their journey.

Implementing Comprehensive Carbon Audits

Carbon management is the fundamental first step in global net-zero initiatives. Understanding one's own emissions footprint is crucial for planning effective carbon reduction strategies. In 2020, LDC Hotels & Resorts initiated carbon work, conducting carbon footprint assessments and greenhouse gas emission audits. This endeavor aims to further plan efficient energy-saving measures and carbon reduction strategies within the supply chain, conducting a comprehensive examination of our carbon footprint.

Replacing Plastic Bottles with Sparkling Water Dispensers

Since 2019, LDC Hotels & Resorts has been using Bluepura Italian sparkling water dispensers and glass bottles to replace plastic bottled water in guest rooms. This switch aims to provide a more refined drinking experience while addressing the issue of plastic waste generated by convenience. By reminding ourselves to drink water every day, we reaffirm that our lives can be more sustainable.

Reducing Food Waste

Would you believe that the amount of food waste generated by Taiwanese people in a year could build 50,000 Taipei 101 skyscrapers when converted into food waste bins? Through LDC's food waste initiative, a large-scale food waste machine has been installed at Fleur de Chine Hotel Sun Moon Lake to produce compost materials, which are then provided to the hotel's garden and nearby local farmers, creating a sustainable food cycle. Additionally, the buffet service at the hotel has transitioned to a last 30-minute ordering system, and any leftover ingredients from the Michelin-starred restaurant are utilized in the staff cafeteria. This encourages both guests and staff to cherish the abundant ingredients from nature together.
