Lopesan MICE: a sustainable hotel model in Gran Canaria

Lopesan MICE has the highest gold certification in sustainability, awarded by the prestigious international organization Travelife

Sustainability is part of the DNA and of that differential value that characterizes Lopesan MICE, a company born in the Canary Islands and highlighted as a leader in the tourism industry in that destination and in Spain. For the Lopesan MICE group, the principle of sustainability consists of a journey that seeks the development of a business model that respects the environment, the generation of value and the care of people.

As a sign of this commitment, the company launched, in 2022, a new ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) Strategic Plan, aimed at making sustainability a competitive advantage. This is a roadmap that establishes medium and long-term goals, aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), defined by the United Nations.

The business group complies with four ISO Standards on Quality, Environmental Management, Safety & Health at Work and Energy Management

Lopesan MICE has obtained the highest gold certification for accommodation sustainability, awarded by the prestigious global organization, Travelife, which demonstrates the sustained work they have been doing towards the development and well-being of present and future generations.

The environmental strategic pillar is one of the most important for Lopesan MICE. In 2022, the business group achieved 100% of the electricity consumed by its hotels to achieve certification of energy of renewable origin (GdO), which resulted in savings of 12,309 tons of CO2, equivalent to 492,378 trees planted. This achievement was possible thanks to important investments made in the energy transition, such as the installation of three of its own wind farms, among other initiatives.

Responsible production and consumption are other topics on which the business group works, specifically those related to the circular economy, based on the reduction, reuse and recycling of waste generated by tourist activity. For this reason, Lopesan MICE promotes initiatives such as the “zero paper” project, a sustainable purchasing policy, the elimination of single-use plastics and waste separation systems at source.
