Sustainable Development

Green Comity

These are the actions taken by all the departments of the Domaine Château-Bromont to promote the protection of the environment, flora and fauna.

Green Key Globa

We are a member of Green Key Global, a HAC (Hotel Association of Canada) progressive Green Key environmental assessment system that recognises hotels committed to improving their environmental performance.

We succeed by our actions and practices:

• Charging station for electric car (2) and Tesla car (3)
• Training at the Sani-Éco recycling centre to help raise employee awareness about the importance of the recycling system and its implementation
• Remote working for certain departments to reduce travels
• Training of certain members on residual waste in the kitchen and in maintenance
• “Sauvons les abeilles” (Save the bees) project, with hive installations directly at the Domaine, which offers fairer trade honey
  

Inovation Comity

Short, medium and long-term projects to counter the labour shortage (e.g. payment and check-out directly from the room’s television).
