| VAYOIL TEXTIL IS RECOGNIZED BY THE MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT FOR ITS CARBON FOOTPRINT REDUCTION. The Valencian manufacturer of textiles for hotels and other collectivities, Vayoil Textil, has been registered in the Carbon Footprint Registry, compensation and carbon dioxide absorption projects by the Ministry of the Environment. The company, which aims to adapt to the 2030 Agenda, has been working for more than 10 years on all kinds of social responsibility initiatives in the economic and environmental field, which has allowed it to reduce its carbon footprint by 61% in the last seven years. Currently, Vayoil Textil is a pioneer in Spain and Europe in dressing a hotel with 100% sustainable textiles, i.e. it can dress a bed, a bathroom, a restaurant or a spa with sustainable garments. The Valencian company Vayoil Textil, manufacturer of textiles for hotels and other collectivities, has been registered in the Registry of Carbon Footprint, compensation and carbon dioxide absorption projects by the Ministry of Environment. Specifically, the company has obtained the seal of calculation and reduction of scopes 1+2. This seal refers to those greenhouse gas emissions that come from sources owned or controlled by the company, such as, for example, consumption of fossil fuels in fixed and/or mobile sources, unintentional leaks from air conditioning equipment, etc. and indirect emissions from electricity consumption and/or vapors generated by third parties. The company is currently the only European company capable of dressing a hotel in a sustainable manner at a competitive price and maintaining the product quality and efficiency standards required by the sector. The company, which has already reduced the use of plastics in its day-to-day operations, is also working to reduce energy and fuel consumption in its production and central services centers. It is also working on improvements in machinery efficiency that have allowed it to move from a carbon footprint of 37% in 2017 to 6% in 2020. The company also uses cardboard boxes without metal packaging and 100% recyclable material in the distribution of its products. A respect for the environment that starts in the supply chain itself as Vayoil Textil requires all its suppliers to have the OEKO- TEX certificate a certificate that guarantees that these companies comply with the charter of workers' rights and respect for the environment throughout the product process from raw materials to the final product and that this does not contain any harmful substances for human contact. The company's high-end production capacity and manufacturing methods contribute to reducing the carbon footprint by producing unique products for high-end hospitality linens. This translates at Vayoil into, among other things, the use of materials that come from recycled plastic (case of garments with polyester fibers) or natural materials from organic farming. The environmental impact of the textile industry, as in many other sectors, is a pressing reality that must be addressed. Currently, less than 1% of the material used to produce clothing is recycled, large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions are generated and we are responsible for a high consumption of cubic meters of water. A major sticking point is the plastic microfibers released from clothes in the washing machine that are polluting the oceans. It is estimated that total clothing sales may triple between now and 2050. Given that the proportion of plastic-based fibers is expected to remain at 63%, this would mean a tripling of microplastics reaching the oceans. Five years ago, Vayoil launched its Ocean line, which year after year has been nurturing a wider range of textile products for hotels. In the words of the Director of Vayoil Textil, Arturo Hernandez: "In Vayoil Textil we are concerned about our planet today and, above all, its future and that is why the company is committed to incorporate into the hotel market products that have this philosophy (reduce, reuse, recycle, redesign, recover and replace) and our innovation walks with this green commitment". |
