We’re committed to reducing our environmental impact through tree planting, beach clean-ups, recycling, reusing, composting and using electric vehicles wherever possible. Since 2019, we’ve been working towards our ambitious goal of becoming carbon neutral. While we’re still on our journey to achieving this we continue to make positive changes and are committed to doing our bit for a more sustainable future. Every little bit really helps!
In 2023, we joined The Green Room | Te Rūma Kākāriki, an initiative from Tourism Industry Aotearoa initiative supporting New Zealand’s goal of net carbon zero by 2050. Being part of this programme has helped us better understand our environmental impact, particularly around waste and our supply chain, and identify practical ways to improve. Sustainability is an ongoing journey, and we’re committed to learning, making positive changes and doing our bit for a greener future.
