Sustainable ecology at im-jaich: Our environmental commitment

Our commitment to the environment and our awareness of responsibility for the sustainable use of natural resources are reflected in our practices and initiatives.

Local partnerships

We purchase milk for our hotel, the boarding house and the Bistro Übersee in Bremerhaven directly from the regional dairy in returnable bottles. This supports local producers and minimizes the ecological footprint.

New Energy

Our electricity is green and comes from renewable sources. The origin of the electricity plays a crucial role, especially in electromobility, since the environmental impact of electric motors is only really better than that of combustion engines if renewable energy sources are used.

Sustainable printing

For each of our print orders, we offset CO2 emissions through certified climate protection projects from ClimatePartner.com. Our envelopes in Bremerhaven are made from recycled material, which means waste is reused.

Upcycling

At many of our locations, we use materials from demolition work carried out by our hydraulic engineering company “Ostseedienst”. Old mooring posts and construction timbers are converted into soundproof walls, barriers and even furniture.

water is life

Every bottle of Viva con Agua mineral water we use helps give more people access to clean drinking water.

gold bucket

We use Goldeimer, the social toilet paper made from 100% recycled paper, in our facilities in Bremerhaven. By purchasing it, we support the educational work and activism for toilets and sanitation projects of Viva con Agua, Welthungerhilfe and Goldeimer. #allefürklos, #klosfüralle!

Our environmental sustainability efforts are an integral part of our corporate culture and demonstrate our commitment to an environmentally friendly future.
