Strategies for Spa Business Sustainability from Top Experts

What tips do you have for implementing more eco-friendly practices in spas and wellness centers?

Charné le Roux, sustainability expert and GSN Planet Board Member: There are a few practices that can bring green within reach of us all: Use less energy for heating and cooling by insulating geysers, water pipes, ceilings and floors. Cover pools and install insulating blinds when you refurbish. Also, opt for quick drying eco linen made from sustainably sourced fabrics.

Use less water by recycling gray water from basins and showers directly to your WC cisterns or gardens. You can also harvest rainwater from your roof. Bring back communal bathing facilities!
