    Eco-friendly interior design has been a growing industry trend in the past few years for green hotels. As the general population grows more and more aware of pressing environmental issues, the demand for green businesses has risen.

    Interior design is all about creating spaces that are aesthetically pleasing and functional at the same time. Meeting these two requirements and being environmentally friendly is not as hard as it might seem. 

    Interior renovations often require that we use up a lot of raw materials and energy in the form of furniture, fixtures and appliances. But if we are careful to shop for eco-friendly products when preparing for an interior design project, we can easily reduce the impact that a room's design has on the environment - not to mention the added bonus to your Green Initiatives credibility.

    EcoGreenHotel recognizes DeBlauw Purchasing, a full service interior design and procurement company, for offering great sustainable value to projects from vision to reality for green hotels. They are well seasoned in a wide array of hotel brands and will manage projects from start to finish - and save you time and aggravation by taking care of all the details.

    Sustainable products begin at the design stage. DeBlauw Purchasing can help you achieve a design that is sustainable, functional, efficient and non-invasive. They incorporate all types of "green" products ranging from:

    • Recycled materials to reclaimed or certified woods
    • Post-consumer recycled content
    • Bio-based or recycle foam core
    • Reduce packaging waste
    • Domestic supplied wood source
    • Fabrics made from organic wools, cottons and materials as hemp, agave, flax, abaca and coconut
    Selective Sustainable Partners

    Not only does DeBlauw Purchasing have established relationships with hundreds of vendors, they're also selective with their partners. They have partnered with manufacturers who are taking action and providing "green programs" at their facilities as well as implementing green initiatives with the products they produce!

    For example, their seating manufacturer heats their entire facility with wood scraps generated from the production of frame parts when constructing upholstered furniture. They use lumber that comes from regenerated forest, and use every bit of material, including the dust that is produced, either for their product or for the efficiency of their facility.   

    Growing Demand for Eco-friendly Products

    With the ever-growing need as sustainable hotels become a norm, DeBlauw Purchasing’s manufacturers are offering a greater variety of product styles so that hotels can be unique, functional and be a “green” or eco-friendly hotel.

    Sustainability and environmental responsibility are top priorities at DeBlauw Purchasing.  Contact DeBlauw Purchasing at info@DeBlauwPurchasing.com or 603.319.1569 to see how they can help you with your next green hotel project. Be sure to mention EcoGreenHotel!
