We’ve been hearing more and more in the news about the circular economy in recent times, and how it can help to make our industries far more sustainable both now and into the future. Almost every nation in the world, including the UK, has made a commitment to Net Zero, and there is a multitude of knowledgeable experts who believe that the circular economy will have an important part to play in this. For many sectors, it can be a major game-changer, but what exactly is it?
It can be defined in many ways, but there are three main principles that form its spine. First, it entails the utilisation of durable, non-toxic products. Second, it stresses the need to prolong the life of such products for as long as possible. Third, it involves, where possible, a strategy of returning waste products to nature. Not all industry sectors will apply all three of these principles all of the time, but those within the circular economy generally cover the underlying processes.
Like many others, hospitality businesses have been under increasing pressure to become ever more sustainable over the past decade or more, and the circular economy represents a golden opportunity to develop environmentally friendly initiatives while remaining as efficient and profitable as possible. Rather than viewing the need to be greener as an obstacle, company owners should be seeing this as a chance to magnify possibilities.
Here at Blue Planet Washing Solutions, we have been providing a range of services to the hospitality sector for many years, and we continue to set the highest standards. We recently invested in a state-of-the-art washing facility, enabling our customers to send us their reusables for all types of events in all parts of the country. Finally, hospitality specialists can embrace the circular economy and reduce their carbon footprints in a dramatic and meaningful way.
Ready and waiting to say yes to the circular economy
There are many more benefits to engaging our services, including our convenient Gatwick location which enables us to connect quickly and efficiently with the national motorway network. And of course, the upcoming ban on the sale and supply of single-use plastics has placed increased pressure on hospitality providers across the UK. Thankfully, the answer can be found with a single phone call.
