The hospitality industry is increasingly turning to innovative solutions to reduce its environmental impact, and one such initiative gaining traction is the adoption of reusable products like Woodly® drinking cups.
Sanna Pokkinen, Spa and Activities Manager at Holiday Club Saimaa Hotel & Spa, underscores the transformative effect of integrating Woodly cups into their operations.
“The clearest benefit of Woodly cups has been the reduction of single-use products in our daily operations”, Pokkinen emphasizes, highlighting the significant contribution to waste minimization.
Feedback from the guests echoes Pokkinen’s sentiment, with customers expressing delight at the availability of a wood-based alternative to traditional plastic.
“The feedback has been positive. People are happy over the fact that a sustainable alternative exists to traditional plastic”, Pokkinen explains.
Moreover, the durability of Woodly cups has impressed Pokkinen and her team. “The cups have been durable; we’ve been using them for almost a year, and their use continues”, she notes. This longevity not only reduces costs associated with frequent replacements but also underscores the reliability and practicality of Woodly cups in a demanding hospitality setting.
Encouraging her industry peers to follow suit, Pokkinen states: “I definitely recommend trying out Woodly cups. This way, you can easily reduce the amount of unnecessary waste and its environmental impacts.” Such endorsements reflect a broader trend within the hospitality sector towards embracing sustainable practices.
