Bj\u00f8rback AS and the Rorbuanlegget Svolv\u00e6r Havn are actively concerned with minimizing our environmental footprint, and not contributing to the destruction of nature both locally, nationally and internationally. Lofoten is the scene of one of the world’s most important and sustainable sea areas for fishing. Centuries of Lofoten fishing have made Lofoten what it is today, and we will do our utmost to help preserve this<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We have installed energy-saving showers in all rooms to reduce water consumption. This saves both water and energy, and contributes to a more sustainable operation.<\/p>\r\n

To minimize water and chemical consumption, we only clean the rooms on departure. If you want to have towels and bed linen changed more often or need cleaning of your room during your stay, please contact our\u00a0service-office.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

Did you know that over 50% of energy use in Norway comes from renewable sources (2022).<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We want our guests to participate in our ongoing work and commitment to increased sustainability. You can for example contribute by:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n\t
  • Take shorter showers.<\/li>\r\n\t
  • Hang towels to dry instead of sending them to wash.<\/li>\r\n\t
  • Turn off the lights when you leave the room.<\/li>\r\n\t
  • Deposit your empty plastic bottles and aluminum cans (example: mineral water etc) in vending machines in grocery stores. These are sent for recycling.<\/li>\r\n\t
  • Use public transport when traveling in Lofoten.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n

    Did you know that aluminum can be recycled 100%?<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
