Mövenpick Resort & Spa Karon Beach Phuket has become the first Green Globe certified hotel in Phuket, Thailand.
The recognition comes as Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts announced a company-wide strategy to establish a common and global approach to environmental, employer, and social sustainability.
As part of the plans, Mövenpick aims for all of its properties to be stamped with Green Globe credentials within two years.
Hansruedi Frutiger, general manager of Mövenpick Resort & Spa Karon Beach, said: "We believe that economic growth and the well-being of society are inextricably tied to the health of the environment.
"Through collaboration with our team, suppliers, and business partners, we have been actively working to reduce the environmental impact of our business activities, and to continually improve and innovate on practices while at the same time meeting current needs."
Green Globe is a global accreditation scheme which recognises excellence in sustainability practices within travel, tourism, and related industries.
The certification is based on key indicators ranging from energy usage, water consumption, and waste output management to employee training and implementation of customer satisfaction measures.
