At Miniloft we recognize our responsibility as global citizens. In order to conserve precious natural resources and the health of our planet, we make environmental stewardship one of our priorities, continually striving to reduce our environmental impact.

The electricity used in the Miniloft building comes from NaturWatt, one of Germany most established suppliers of 100% renewable electricity, such as wind or solar power. They are certified and checked regularly by independent institutions.

Our heating and hot water is produced using a highly efficient gas burning furnace. To minimize its global impact, we purchase carbon off-sets for every cubic meter of natural gas we burn from Atmosfair. They fund only UN-certified Gold Standard climate protection projects, and are widely recognized as Germany's best carbon off-setter. When traveling we also off-set our flight emissions using their website.

All our cleaning products are organically certified and biodegradable.

All coffee, tea, and other drinks we supply are also organically grown and fair-trade products.

The building was designed to reduce environmental impact. It is constructed of high-quality, long-lasting materials. It meets the stringent German standards for insulation. To reduce energy consumption in summer, we installed a sun-shade system, instead of air conditioning, to keep the building cool. We have a grass roof to reduce water run-off, extend roof life, and help clean the air.
