Sustainability
Sustainability and environmental responsibility are at the core of our values.
We adhere to both environmental and procurement policies.
Social Responsibility
Vök Baths is committed to supporting the local community in East Iceland. For example, the restaurant uses local ingredients, our craft beer is produced by Múli Brugghús, the larch wood used in the buildings and pools is sourced from Fljótsdalur, and most of our cleaning products are purchased locally.
Additionally, we use services from local businesses and strive to hire locally for our team. Vök Baths also supports local sports and recreational clubs
