Pursuing sustainability

The owner Mr.Hara Kenichiro told us about their effort to pursuing sustainability.

“Now we use the wooden chip boiler to heat hot springs, but originally, we have used heavy oil. However, by looking at the mountains of Hakone from our villa, I have found that we have such a precious resources of this mountain, the woods, and the idea to make a good use of those resources have come up to me. This became the starting point for the introduction of the wooden chip boiler. Using the trees of Hakone also helps to keep the local mountains in a healthy state.

In order to realize this, I had the help of the network of the Global Environment Division of the Small Business Entrepreneurs Association that I belong to. It was a really hard way to realize. I could not do this by myself.”

Mr. Hara is also trying to make the most of the tourist attractions of Hakone. From a big point of view, he is thinking about “utilizing” the nature of Hakone with comrade.

“Hakone originally has lots of valuable resources. Woods, of course, many attractive cultures and natures unique to Japan that you would like to see more.”
