Hotel & Resort Innovation Expo is working with Green Key, an international eco-label for tourism facilities, with over 3,000 awarded establishments in 57 countries, to fight for sustainability. Since 1994, Green Key has been a leading standard of excellence in environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism industry. The Green Key programme is run in England by the environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, and internationally by the Foundation for Environmental Education. 

Green Key is eligible for hotels, small accommodations, campsites, holiday parks, conference centres, restaurants, and visitor attractions.

For guests, a Green Key shows that the establishment is committed to reducing the environmental impact of their stay.
