We want our guests and residents to be able to make environmentally friendly choices. Also, we want all the choices made for them by us to be equally as good. That is why all our towels and bedlinen are Eco-labelled, and all our personal amenities in soap, toilet paper and paper towels are Eco-label Certified.
DID YOU KNOW
… that to qualify for Eco-labelling, products must comply with a tough set of environmental criteria. But it can be difficult to tell which ones to trust. The EU Ecolabel logo makes it simple to know that a product or a service is both environmentally friendly and good quality. The criteria take the whole product life cycle into account – from the extraction of the raw materials to production, packaging and transport, right through to the use and then the recycling bin.
OUR ECO LABELS
This is how we work with Eco-label Certifications and use products with Eco-label.

Sustainable beauty sleep
The duvets and pillows at UNITY are labelled STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®. You can therefore be certain that every component of the product i.e., every thread, button and other accessories, has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless for human health. Safe and restful, sleepy nights is also part of the UNITY living.
Fairtrade organic linens
Rest assured that the bed linens at UNITY are 100% cotton labelled both with Fairtrade certified cotton and GOTS Global Organic Textile Standard.
By choosing Fairtrade cotton goods, UNITY is empowering small-scale farmers and pushing the industry to become sustainable. It truly makes a difference!
GOTS is recognized as the world's leading processing standard for textiles made from organic fibers – only textile products containing a minimum of 70% organic fibers can become GOTS certified. At UNITY we meet the high standards – not only by number, but by dedicated choice!
EU Eco-labelled towels
The bathroom towels at all our UNITY locations are Eco-labelled – naturally. The EU Ecolabel is a label of environmental excellence and is awarded to products and services meeting high environmental standards throughout their life cycle: from raw material extraction to production, distribution and disposal.
Our kitchen towels are made from 100% recycled cotton, which means that the amount of energy, water and chemical products is much less in these products than if virgin cotton had been used.
