Sustainability
Once the lively hub of the fishing village, its light had begun to fade. We’ve revived the building in which De Durgerdam sits for a bright new future by taking bones from the past, creating an idyll for today, whilst safeguarding the building for over 250 years. Achieving this is a process and requires several actions in all different stages from development to operations. Some are related to the building, some related to our people and the experience we offer, but all equally important.
We like to consider ourselves forerunners in sustainability. So that means doing better wherever we can. Lowering emissions is key, from the big, focal areas like heat pumps, solar panels, the reusage of 150.000 liters of water, a composting machine, and gas-free heat to the little details like our herb garden, insect hotel and the repurposed upholstery on the chair you sink into, wondering why it’s just so comfortable. And although we won’t ever sit back and relax when it comes to sustainability we may change and grow within this innovative field – because fluidity and flexibility are the core tools we will need to do better. We don’t see it as a choice; this is the only way forward. We hope you’ll join us on our journey.
