Soap, Shampoo, and Lotion Dispensers

Green Ideas for Environmentally Friendly Hotels

Hotels are known for offering amenities like soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion for guests. And those amenities are provided in individual packages. The line up just described entails three plastic bottles and one or two plastic or cardboard wrappers. Once the item is opened, it needs to be thrown away. That’s a lot of adding to landfills. Daily.

Offer these items in bulk dispensers. You save money buying amenities in bulk (wholesale soap packaging takes less space in the landfill than individual) rather than tiny packages. You save money giving employees more productive work than dealing with amenities daily. You save money not adding refuse to your dumpster, refuse that you pay to haul away. You create money maker by selling your amenities in the gift shop.

Shower shampoo dispensers get better every day in quality and looks. They. give you the option of dispensing conditioner and bath soaps too. Soap dispensers on the counter don’t have to be one gallon handsoap dispensers, though in your public restrooms that might be good. There are lots of attractive options for soap dispensers today. Luxury soaps are available for you in bulk and individual packaging, adding to you quality. You can use the same kind of dispensers for hand and body lotion too.

While you’re thinking of amenities, this is a great opportunity to pay attention to guest allergies. Provide soap, shampoo, and lotion with herbal, natural ingredients, with no fragrances added. Your wholesale soap suppliers can provide containers that will take up less storage and space on the cleaning cart. You are contributing to a better world on several levels when you start thinking like this.
