ECO-SUSTAINABILITY

Our way on sustainability

Our way on sustainability

Starting from 2023, we have decided to undertake on a path of a better sustainability, following the international standard of Global Sustainable Tourism Council. This scheme drives us to evaluate the sustainability of our structure considering not only the environmental, but also the managing, social, economic and cultural point of view.

 

At Rosapineta Sud Holiday Village, we are committed to continuously improving our sustainability program, increasing the positive and reducing negative impacts produced by our business.

OUR COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT

 

Ecological and efficient purchases

  • A4 paper certificate FSC and Ecolabel
  • A3 paper certificate PEFC and Ecolabel
  • Sustainable eco-friendly pens at the reception office, also gifted to our guests, which have replaced the disposable plastic pens
  • The reduced disposable tableware in our restaurant are biodegradable
  • Eco-sustainable detergents and dispensers in our laundry

We also pay particular attention to reduce unsustainable packaging and non-reusable products:

  • We use water dispenser with returnable bottle
  • We sensitize our guests to drink water from the tap by hanging stickers near the sink
  • In the public toilet and working areas there are rechargeable soap dispenser
  • We provide employees with thermal flasks to reduce the use of disposable drinking glasses

 

Water Saving

 

The Po Delta in Veneto Region develops itself between Po and Adige rivers, two of the major rivers in Italy, which flow into the Adriatic Sea. Despite this wealth of water, the climate crisis has begun to cause several water problems; for this reason, we are committed to reduce consumptions:

  • Water-saving aerator in the shower
  • Flow reducer for taps
  • Drip irrigation in green areas

LOCAL SUPPLY CHAIN, SUSTAINABLE AND INCLUSIVE

 

In our Holiday Village, independent partners manage restaurants and the supermarket. Rosapineta Sud has cooperated with them to ensure the offer of traditional dishes using local products in our gastronomic proposal. In D7 Supermarket, we try to enhance local and the Region Veneto products, identifying them with “Narrative Label” wording “LOCAL PRODUCT” – “TWO STEPS AWAY FROM HERE”.

Some examples:

  • “Pane biscotto” and “bossolà”, typical crusty bread made by Panificio f.lli Tiozzo in Cavanella d’Adige (VE)
  • “Bomboloni alla crema” special donuts cream-filled, made by pastry shop Pic Bar snc in Sant’Anna di Chioggia, a long tradition recipe handed down the generations.
  • Local cold cuts, such us “Soppressa” (a typical salami), cooked and cured hams of Bovolenta Salumificio in Ariano Polesino (RO), it is also recognized by the Po Delta Park Authority as a producer of short-chain local specialities.
  • The different typologies of rice such as Carnaroli, Arborio, Vialone Nano and pre-made “Risotto” of Risicoltori Polesani Società Consortile in Taglio di Po (RO), products with I.G.P. mark and known all over Italy.
  • Veneto region Wines such as Serpino, Raboso, Marzemino produced  in the Euganean Hills cellars; and Prosecco (white sparkling wine, I.G.P product) produced in Treviso.

The restaurants “La Chiesetta” and “Pepe Rosa” offer a culinary offer based on local fish dishes, such as the Scardovari Mussels, the “Bibarasse of Delta” (characteristic clams) and local vegetables, first of all the Radicchio of Chioggia. Moreover, since 2023 our offer has been renewed with the inclusion of vegetarian and vegan proposals, sustainable and ethical.
