General Information
Decoration can also be sustainable. This ZERO Waste course is for everyone who wants to live more sustainably and show this in their home.

You are also welcome to bring old containers and decorative materials that you would like to reuse. Materials will be provided.
The Retter Bio-Natur-Resort has been a partner of ZERO Waste Austria since 2019. ZERO Waste is a philosophy that strives for sustainability and aims to lead a life that produces as little waste as possible in order to conserve resources. As a biohotel, it is an important point in the Retter family's corporate philosophy to handle food, raw materials, and resources sparingly. At the Retter Bio-Natur-Resort, there is the ZERO Waste decoration course, a "make natural fertilizer from food scraps" workshop, and much more.
“We focus on Zero Waste”
The Hotel Retter in Pöllauberg is located in the middle of the Pöllauer Tal nature park and holds not only the environmental label but also numerous other awards, such as the Trigos Award or the Green Globe. “I learn something new with each certification,” says Ulli Retter, the co-manager of the hotel. The Retter team partially uses rainwater and focuses on ZERO Waste, striving to produce no garbage: “We grow mushrooms on organic coffee grounds. We do not use herbicides like glyphosate or artificial fertilizers. The beeswax wraps keep organic bread fresh, and our ZERO Waste courses for holiday guests help to think about this topic at home as well.”
Retter BioGut with bakery:
New at the environmental label hotel Retter is BioGut, which has been open to visitors since the end of August 2018, including as part of tours: The energy-optimized building houses a distillery, herb factory, and ice cream parlor. Juices and spirits from organic fruits from the surrounding orchards of the Retters are produced here. A large part of the delicacies is served to guests at the hotel.
Do good and talk about it! Should one really talk about all the good they do? A clear yes comes from Ulli Retter: “We focus on education. We want to pass on knowledge to our guests that we have acquired over the years.” This includes many details and ideas brought about by numerous certifications and of course, the active attitude of the hotel. Choose from the ZERO Waste courses at Retter BioGut.
