Sustainability

Our concept of sustainability and ultimate modernity is reflected in the different projects:
In Julia’s restaurant & café bar and in the Orangerie near-surface geothermal energy is our energy source. In combination with a heat pump the geothermal energy is used to heat the building in the winter and to cool it in summer. In Hotel Calamus the cooling is effected with groundwater.

In our second big building, which is home to Hotel Calamus, the electric go-kart track CalaRace, the grill restaurant Chattanooga Steakhouse, the indoor playground Sensapolis and the wellness oasis CalaSpa, we work with a cogeneration unit. This uses the principle of CHP (combined heat and power) and is a modular system for generating electric energy and heat that is used again directly at the point of origin.

The CalaCarWash is equipped with its own wastewater treatment plant, which biologically treats the cleaning water used in the car washes in an environmentally friendly manner. This innovative technology of the recycling plant allows the cleaned water to be reused and the use of fresh water to be reduced from 800 litres per car to only 48 litres, which corresponds to water recovery of 94%.

The carts on the go-kart track CalaRace and the segways used as company vehicles on the premises are driven with renewable energies instead of fossil fuels.
