Punta Cana, Dominican Republic – TRYP by Wyndham Punta Cana is set to take center stage at FITUR 2026, emerging as one of the most forward‑thinking hospitality developments worldwide thanks to its groundbreaking approach to sustainable, low‑carbon construction.
Developed by Bio Investment Group in partnership with World Trade Holding Corp., the project represents a historic milestone for the global hotel industry. It is officially recognized as the first hotel in the world constructed using a low‑carbon steel structural system combined with post‑tensioned slabs, a method that significantly redefines how sustainability is implemented in large‑scale hospitality projects.
Building Sustainability from the Ground Up
Guided by the philosophy “the future of sustainable hospitality starts with the structure,” TRYP by Wyndham Punta Cana integrates advanced construction technologies designed to dramatically reduce environmental impact from the earliest stages of development.
According to Nigel La Chapelle, CEO of Bio Investment Group, the project’s innovative structural design delivers measurable environmental benefits, including:
- Up to 70% reduction in carbon footprint compared to traditional steel structures
- Up to 56% fewer emissions versus conventional concrete construction
- Steel components produced with up to 100% recycled scrap material
- Construction operations powered entirely by 100% renewable energy
As a result, the hotel’s construction phase alone prevented more than 1,252 tons of CO₂ emissions, an environmental savings equivalent to the annual carbon absorption of approximately 140,200 coconut palm trees. These figures position the project as a reference case for sustainable hotel construction at a global level.
Global Recognition for Innovation and Responsible Construction
The hotel’s sustainability credentials have not gone unnoticed. TRYP by Wyndham Punta Cana has already been selected as a finalist in several international awards recognizing excellence in sustainability, innovation, and responsible building practices.
Its presentation at FITUR 2026 will highlight how investment, architecture, and hospitality operations can align with global decarbonization goals, proving that environmental responsibility can coexist with modern design, operational efficiency, and a high‑quality guest experience.
Punta Cana Reinforces Its Role as a Hub for Tourism Innovation
The presence of TRYP by Wyndham Punta Cana at FITUR 2026 further strengthens Punta Cana and the Dominican Republic’s position as leaders in sustainable tourism development, moving beyond traditional sun‑and‑beach narratives toward innovation, long‑term vision, and responsible investment.
As international travelers and investors increasingly prioritize environmental performance, projects like this place Punta Cana at the forefront of next‑generation tourism solutions, where sustainability becomes tangible infrastructure rather than marketing rhetoric.
With TRYP by Wyndham Punta Cana, the region once again demonstrates that it is not only a global tourism success story, but also a testing ground for the future of hospitality.
