do you EvEr WoNdEr how your THIS MONTH’S QUESTION:
peers would handle a situation? Maybe you’re
curious what other leaders in the spa industry
have to say on a certain subject. In Sound Off,
we ask ISPA members from differing backgrounds,
countries and companies the same question and
see how their answers compare. “How has your
company integrated
sustainability into its
workplace culture?”

We have recycled bins for
everything in our corporate
office, reduce use of all
plastics, lights off when there
is minimal staff to conserve
energy, energy saver air units,
energy saver fridge, reuse
back side of paper for in-
house paperwork and have
filtered water instead of
plastic bottles in corporate
office. In a national park at the foot
of San Francisco’s Golden
Gate Bridge, our LEED Gold
certified lodge features
recycled materials, non-toxic
products, energy-efficient
facilities and more. The hotel
works to promote green
hospitality practices and has
partnered with sustainability
institutes and community-
minded foundations. The
Healing Arts Center & Spa
offers organic treatments,
products and linens and
integrative medicine services. We are taking green
measures... we’ve provided
glass water bottles (BKR) to
our team, placed specific
recycle containers in each
team’s office and shut down
overhead lights throughout
the course of the day. Every
little bit makes a difference! We use packaging peanuts
made from biodegradable
material instead of plastic to
fill dead space in shipping
boxes. We have recycling
containers in every room to
encourage every employee to
separate trash. n
