EnvironmentalJuly 22, 2007Bulk Soap and ShampooOne hotel issue that's been important to me for years is the use of bulk bathroom amenities. By using quality shampoo, bath gel, conditioner and even lotions in bulk dispensers you not only take care of your guests -- your primary responsibility -- but also you take care of your budget and the environment. What a great win-win all the way around! July 7, 2006100% Environmentally Friendly SheetsI just mentioned under Daily Operations that I had discovered the joys of bamboo sheets.

Bamboo sheets. 100% bamboo fiber sheets, not a bamboo/cotton blend. October 7, 2005Environmentally Safe Cleaning TipMaybe you "green" folks know this one but it was new to me so I'm sharing.
