Sustainable and Circular Accommodation Program

A STAMP OF PRIDE THAT SETS YOU APART.

The Den Refillery’s Sustainable & Circular Accommodation Program creates a simple way for guests to identify accommodations who are committed to sustainable practices. S.C.A.P. is more than a label, it’s a commitment to sustainable practices that distinguishes your accommodation from others. 

For each S.C.A.P. member, we expect the highest level of transparency and desire to grow within the sustainability world. We offer products necessary for getting your accommodation up and ready: amenities, toiletries, cleaning products, and more! Find more of our refill options here. By participating, you join a community focused on responsible practices, making refilling and recycling easier for both guests and hosts, while keeping countless single-use plastics out of the ocean. 

Our tier-based program provides a clear roadmap to becoming a circular and sustainable accommodation. Each tier level is defined by your accommodation’s commitment to the program and to sustainable circular systems. It is our intention that this program be recognizable for tourists who seek to travel mindfully, locally and globally.

BRONZE - The Bronze tier is the first step in The Den’s Sustainable and Circular Accommodation Program. Bronze members offer full transparency with guests that all guest-facing amenities are toxic-free and a part of the closed-loop refill program. These members have recognized that the future of travel must be sustainable and are excited to take the steps necessary to protect their local community’s environment.

SILVER - Silver members offer full transparency with guests that all guest-facing amenities and most housekeeping products are toxic-free and a part of the closed-loop refill program. They’re taking the next steps to transition the housekeeping side of their accommodation and accessories. These members are inspiring their community and their guests to continue making the better choice in everyday practices for the environment.

GOLD - Gold is the ultimate commitment to sustainable accommodations. S.C.A.P. Gold members offer full transparency, ensuring that every amenity and housekeeping product is toxic-free and a part of the closed-loop refill program.Their back-of-house operations are integrated with procedures to achieve the goal of zero waste and minimize their carbon footprints. These members lead the change in environmental stewardship.

At The Den, we recognize the finite nature of resources and strive to manage them sustainably for future generations. Our refill program helps eliminate single-use items by reusing and repurposing larger containers within the community and utilizing natural ingredients in our products to protect local ecosystems.

S.C.A.P. provides the templates and guides necessary to support an easy transition from your current systems to a sustainable, circular, and closed loop system. As experts in zero waste, we have the tools to guide you on your exciting journey!
