Hosting sustainability

Today, 100% of the group’s hotels have adopted cage-free eggs in the preparation of à la carte dishes—an important milestone that reinforces our commitment to more responsible practices and an operation free from eggs produced by hens kept in cages. In line with global trends toward practices that respect animal welfare, ICH is committed to continuing to make the necessary changes and, in the near future, discontinuing the use of eggs from hens confined in cages (processed and in-shell), whether from its own brands or third parties, reporting its progress publicly each year.

Recognizing the challenges facing the sector and the need for change to achieve greater female representation, ICH Administração de Hotéis has made a new commitment. The group became the first company in the hospitality sector to join the WEPs, an initiative of UN Women and the Glolbal Compact that promotes the Women’s Empowerment Principles in Brazil and around the world.

Recycling is a shared commitment. We made this commitment by ensuring that all capsules used at our properties are sent to Nespresso collection points for recycling. There are more than 200 collection points across the country. Reverse logistics is an alternative that supports both mobility and the environment.

Zletric is a smart solution for charging electric vehicles. We have partnered to install charging outlets, promoting urban mobility while providing clean energy.

Replacing the plastic bottles in guest-room minibars with more sustainable alternatives represents an important step toward reducing the environmental impact of hotel operations.  Throughout 2025, more than 223,000 plastic bottles were kept from being discarded into the environment, as a result of the cumulative reduction across the group’s hotels—reinforcing its ongoing commitment to sustainability and the consistent implementation of its initiatives. By eliminating more than 4.4 tonnes of plastic and reducing more than 11 tonnes of CO₂, the project has a direct impact on cutting emissions and promoting the circular economy. This is a relevant practice within the ESG guidelines applied to the hospitality industry, aligned with a more conscious business model connected to today’s environmental challenges.
