Mr. Tran Thai Do – the investor of Silk Sense resort – shared that, with a sustainable development orientation, Silk Sense Hoi An River Resort has pursued environmental protection from the very beginning in a comprehensive and determined manner, demonstrated by the use of environmentally friendly materials such as AAC autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) bricks for the construction of the entire project.

Furthermore, the resort utilizes a central inverter air conditioning system and hot water production. From the mineral salt swimming pool and Kangen water bottles to the organic vegetable garden supporting guests’ health, even the smallest personal items in each room use only environmentally friendly materials… ensuring no impact on the environment and, more broadly, the ozone layer.

“Currently, we have drastically reduced plastic waste, so the resort no longer releases plastic waste into the environment and no longer uses single-use plastic items. This action not only protects the environment but also opens up great opportunities for sustainable tourism development.”

“We believe that demonstrating social responsibility and creating a sustainable business model will not only attract responsible tourists but also contribute to building a green brand for Vietnam’s tourism industry,” Mr. Do said.

According to Mr. Do, sustainable development is not just about ecological activities, green spaces, and waste reduction, but rather about achieving a balance that meets the needs of the present without compromising the needs of future generations.

In addition, the company consistently supports the local community by providing assistance to the government, people, and businesses through the Silk Sense Sustainable Development Fund.

The title “Plastic-Free Hotel” is one of Silk Sense’s efforts to ensure sustainable development, gradually improving and marking its journey towards creating a balance between economic development, environmental protection, and cultural values.
