With initiatives including eliminating single-use plastic, sustainable design with interwoven rice fields, Laguna Lăng Cô golf course is one of pioneers in the movement for a greener, more sustainable Vietnamese golf industry.
Mr. Adam Calver, Golf and Destination Marketing Manager at Laguna Lăng Cô said Vietnam is one of the most beautiful countries in the world and they are fortunate to have one of the best locations for project development.
Laguna Golf Lăng Cô has completely eliminated the use of single-use plastic in most activities such as waste bags, locker room accessories, plastic cups and straws and replaced them with items made from materials such as bamboo, paper, steel or natural grass. At the same time, Laguna Lăng Cô has completed the installation of its own bottled water factory, helping the resort completely eliminate plastic water bottles and use reusable glass bottles.
