Lodge Taking Steps Towards SustainabilityChalet Eiger has been awarded the Qualmark Silver level for its efforts in supporting sustainable tourism. It implements comprehensive recycling systems for glass, cardboard, tins, aluminum, paper, and plastic, and composts kitchen and garden waste. The property uses only eco-friendly cleaning products and a steam cleaner for hard floors without chemicals. It features an on-site contained wastewater treatment plant, and employs energy-saving measures such as outside lighting on movement sensors or timers, heat pumps with thermostats, double glazing, harvested tank water from the roof, and 150mm insulation in the roof. Guests are given the option to reuse towels, and meals are prepared with locally sourced New Zealand produce, including home-grown vegetables.
