Driftwood Hospitality Management Employs Environmentally Friendly
Practices Through The IHG®Green Engage Program (Sept. 26, 2013)
IHG®-Branded Properties Take Active Roles in Measuring, Managing and Reporting Energy, Water and Waste Usage
    Driftwood Hospitality Management today announced an array of new environmentally friendly policies and procedures, which are being implemented at its IHG®-branded properties across the U.S. As part of the IHG Green Engage program, the management teams of these hotels, which include Crowne Plaza®, Hotel Indigo®, Holiday Inn® and Staybridge Suites® properties, are now rolling out tailored initiatives such as staff training, utilization of new green cleaning materials, high-efficiency vacuum cleaners and debuting a new recycling and compost program.

“Hotels are an important part of the local communities in which they operate and play a critical role in balancing the economic, social and environmental impacts. IHG Green Engage gives our hotels the means to minimize impact on the environment, conserve resources and ultimately save money,” said Paul Snyder, vice president, Corporate Responsibility, IHG. “The Program provides a significant operational advantage, as energy is often the second largest cost to our owners. Additionally, these hotels are better positioned to respond to rising energy prices and managing their carbon footprint.”
