As at all Scandic hotels, sustainability is a central part of Scandic Göteborg Central. The hotel is ecolabeled according to the Nordic Swan Ecolabel's new, tough criteria where, among other things, ecolabeled products and chemicals and 100 percent renewable electricity, the absence of single-use disposables, reduced water consumption, a climate-friendly menu and reduced food waste formed the basis for certification.
The building has also been certified according to LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), an international sustainability assessment system, meeting the requirements for LEED Platinum, which is the highest level. The purpose of the certification is to provide an independent environmental assessment of the building for guests, society and other stakeholders. The certification system assesses several important sustainability aspects, such as biodiversity, water conservation, energy and resource efficiency as well as the ability of indoor spaces to provide good daylight, air and sound environments.
In addition to the internationally recognized environmental certifications for property and hotel operations, the rooms at Scandic Göteborg Central have been designed with circularity in mind and parts of the room interiors are environmentally certified or made from recycled materials. The interiors have a lifespan of up to 15 years and most materials can be reused or recycled during renovations, which is in line with Scandic's vision of a completely circular hotel room.
Scandic Göteborg Central will strengthen Scandic's presence in the hotel market in
