  • Utilizing occupancy sensors to control lighting systems in the heart of house spaces and storage and equipment rooms
  • Replaced high consumption flush toilets & urinals, showerheads & faucets with high efficiency/low consumption models in deluxe bedrooms.

Waste Minimization & Environmentally Responsible Purchasing:

  • Identified its appropriate waste streams and measures volumes of waste in each.
  • Eliminated the use of Styrofoam from all food and beverage operations in the hotel.
  • Giving preference to product suppliers who provide and take back reusable packaging and shipping pallets; and provide minimal and recyclable packaging materials.
  • Actively choosing supplier relationships which offer as few deliveries as possible.
  • All staff printers set on black and white duplex printing by default when printer functions allow it.
  • Turnberry favors reusable over disposable products – that is, which minimize the volume of waste collected.

  • Cleaning personnel use daylight while cleaning to the extent possible (in lieu of electric lighting).
  • Cleaning personnel is trained to reduce water usage by avoiding running water where possible.

Raising Awareness:

  • Turnberry has implemented a Green Council or Environmental Committee  to ensure staff awareness, involvement and buy-in.
