Sustainability

Sustainability, or a sustainable approach to business and operations by an organization requires a corporate commitment to both sustainable sourcing and processing of materials as well a commitment to investing and developing of energy saving technologies and construction methods. Ocio London are extremely proud of the fact that Klafs are Wellness industry leaders in all these spheres.

Klafs have been awarded the “Blue Angel” German industrial kite mark for environmental awareness in the sourcing and processing of materials for saunas - a first for any sauna manufacturer. Ocio London are delighted to partner Klafs in bringing this sustainable and environmental consciousness to the marketplace.

The “Blue Angel” kite mark recognizes the fact that Klafs only sources wood from registered and reputable suppliers with proven tracking and Certificate of Origin systems, with wood harvested only from managed and sustainable forests. Klafs sustainable processing of material is also acknowledged under the “Blue Angel” scheme whereby, in Klafs case, all waste from the manufacturing process is recycled via a Biomass generator to provide energy for the production and office facilities.

Energy Saving Technology

Investing in energy saving technology for your Klafs experience can be justified from either an ethical perspective or from a hard-headed business approach to running costs. At Ocio London we like to think that our enlightened customers consider this issue from both perspectives!

An additional benefit of investing in Klafs Energy Saving technology for your spa package or experience is that a commitment in this area will add credibility to the “Sustainability Audit” which is becoming a feature and requirement of any planning application.
