Some of our eco friendly features and practices include:
For Marrable’s:
• Our own borehole beneath the building: we use it to flush loos and cool both our fridges and your bedrooms.
• Natural light and passive ventilation: this is provided by Marrable’s central atrium and automated skylight.
• All the timber used in the building’s construction was bought from sustainable sources, and the paints used in our interiors are environmentally-friendly.
• We have recently invested over £125000 on upgrading internal glazing in all the rooms, to assist with heat loss/conservation.
All our properties:
• Occupancy detection systems in the bedrooms: so that when you aren’t there, minimal energy is burned. And when a bedroom window is opened the air conditioning has been designed to cut out
• Low plastic policy – we offer filtered still and sparkling water in glass bottles, non-plastic take away cups and recyclable lids.
• Our bath and shower products have been chosen for its environmentally friendly packaging and the formulations, which contain no parabens, phthalates, petrol-derived ingredients, mineral oil, urea, DEA, TEA or propylene glycol – changing soon to large refillable bottles
• Supporting local: Wherever possible, we use or work with local or British brands. Our kitchens also focus heavily on British or better still, local produce.
