Save water

• Installing efficient equipment can save you money.
• Watch out - a dripping tap wastes up to 7 litres of water in an hour.

Save energy

• Use energy saving lamps and fluorescent lamps with electronic ballast.
• When radiators are on, windows should be closed!

Be chemical conscious

• Avoid using strong cleaning agents.
• Use CFC-free sprays.
• Always empty your colouring tubes – this way less dangerous substances get into the disposal cycle.

Reduce waste

• Use eco-friendly paper bags for OTC products.
• For ‘give-aways’, natural, organic bags could be chosen.
• Only mix the amount of colour you need.
• Reuse and recycle.

Interior design

• By using particular colours, natural materials and decoration it is possible to get the green touch without spending a huge amount of money.
• Plants arouse the feeling of being united with nature. They purify the air and can provide a nice fragrance.
• Wooden furniture and flooring can add a natural warm feel to the salon.
• Inexpensive colour changes can create a green ambience.

Laundry tips

• Use the smallest amount of detergent possible.
• A pre-wash is not necessary when using a modern washing machine. 
• Don‘t use fabric softener – they reduce the absorption ability of towels.
• Always fully load your washing machine.
• Don’t use a dryer – they waste a lot of energy - try to dry your laundry after business hours.
• A hot wash is not necessary – modern detergents clean your laundry at a temperature between 40°C and 60°C.
• Colour compact detergents are mostly eco-friendly.
