VAYOIL TEXTIL PARTICIPATES IN THE GOVERNORS' SUMMIT

The commercial director of Vayoil Textil, Ramón García, participated as an expert in the Housekeepers Summit given within the framework of HIP (Hospitality Innovation Planet) organized by ASEGO and AEDH (Spanish Association of Hotel Managers).

A meeting that brought together a large group of attendees and in which different topics of special interest to the hotel managers were discussed, including sustainability in hotels and the talent and training of the new generations.

This training included several topics, one of the main ones was sustainability as a main criterion when developing the activity in the hotel sector, a topic that Ramón Esteve addressed to explain the company's experience in this field. It is important to point out that currently, Vayoil Textil is a pioneer in Spain and Europe in dressing a hotel with 100% sustainable textile, that is to say, it can dress a bed, a bathroom, a restaurant or a spa with sustainable garments.

In the words of Ramón García: "Behind the pandemic we find a great green wave that has begun to accelerate. The implementation of eco-friendly measures to benefit the environment and attract the demand of sustainable travelers will extend to the entire tourism sector. Sustainability has penetrated deep into the sector and has been placed at the center, but we should not get carried away by marketinian speeches and bet on companies that have environmental respect in their DNA and that have been working in this direction for years, as is the case of Vayoil Textil".

The company explained how four years ago it launched a line of products called Ocean, which year after year has been increasing its offer of textile products for hotels until it is now the only company capable of dressing a hotel in a sustainable way at a competitive price and maintaining the quality and efficiency standards of the product that the sector needs. 

A respect for the environment that in the case of Vayoil Textil starts in the same supply chain since the company 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 process of the product from raw materials to the final product and that it does not contain any substance harmful to human contact.

These changes in processes are also accompanied by changes in the raw materials used. Vayoil has the GOTS certificate (organic cotton), which has been completed with the OCS certificate (organic cotton) and RCS (recycled materials) and accompany the Vayoil Textil product as a guarantee to its customers that the product they are acquiring is of the highest quality and has been subjected to an exhaustive control throughout its production process.

The company, also detailed how it has reduced the use of plastics in its day-to-day operations and is also working to reduce in its production centers and central services the consumption of energy, fuel, and improvements in the efficiency of machinery that have allowed it to go 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.
