WAVE(ing) Goodbye to Wasted Water
If you filled 32 Olympic-size swimming pools, it would take 900 million gallons of water. That’s the same amount of water that was conserved in 1999 by Lodging Partners of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Water Alliances for Voluntary Efficiency (WAVE) program. Since the program was launched in 1993, almost 50 hotels and inns have joined WAVE to initiate water conservation efforts.
Laundering for the Environment
Attention Laundry Managers: Do you realize that the laundry detergent you use may be harming the environment and putting your workers at unnecessary risk?
Each year, laundry facilities use and release to the environment billions of pounds of wash room chemicals. Many of these chemicals–the ingredients in commonly used laundry products–pose a serious hazard to the planet and living things. At stake is the health of rivers, lakes, and streams and the animal life that inhabit them--but also the health and well being of the individuals who spend their days inside the wash room.

Textile Services Industry Gets National Spotlight
WILIMGTON, Mass. — Textile service executive Ronald Croatti recently appeared on the CBS-TV show “Undercover Boss.” Croatti is CEO of UniFirst Corp., in Wilmington, Mass. For most Americans watching “Undercover Boss” it was their first view inside a commercial laundry, which typically process between 10 million and 25 million pounds of uniforms, table linens, bed sheets, towels and more every year “The reusable textile services business is the original green industry,” said Ricci. “Commercial laundries reuse linen instead of filing landfills with disposable alternatives and continually discover new, innovative means to reduce energy consumption and recycle water. Our huge economies of scale allow laundries to use about two-thirds less water, energy and detergent than alternatives, such as washing at home, while hygienically cleaning textile products, improving disease control and reducing contamination.”
