ibex fairstay

ibex fairstay is an independent Swiss certification label for sustainability in tourism and accommodation. Hotels and other lodging businesses are evaluated across five dimensions of sustainable development and awarded a tiered certification level — Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Platinum — reflecting the depth of their commitment and performance.

The program is designed for accommodation enterprises in Switzerland that want to formally measure, demonstrate, and improve their sustainability practices. The certification process involves an assessment of how well a property performs across environmental, social, and economic criteria, giving operators a structured framework to identify strengths and areas for improvement.

For travelers and partners, the label serves as a credible, third-party signal that a certified property meets verified sustainability standards. For operators, achieving certification provides recognized market differentiation and a clear pathway for ongoing improvement in sustainable hospitality.
