The Green Choice: Why Eco-Friendly Hand Dryers Matter
In today's world, sustainability is a top priority for businesses of all sizes. Consumers are increasingly eco-conscious, and companies are looking for ways to reduce their environmental impact. One area that often gets overlooked is the humble restroom. But did you know that switching from paper towels to eco-friendly hand dryers can make a significant difference? Luckily, Saniflow has you covered with our very own Savings Calculator! Where you’re able to actually see the difference and track the annual climate change benefits that each of our top hand dryers offers! Whether it’s CO2 emissions, gallons of water saved, or the number of trees rescued we’re able to show you a detailed report of it all.
The Hidden Costs Behind Paper Towels:
Paper towels might seem like a convenient way to dry hands, but their environmental cost is high. Here's a breakdown of the hidden impact:
Deforestation and Water Consumption: The production of paper towels requires a massive number of trees. Every year, millions of trees are cut down to meet the demand for disposable paper products. Manufacturing paper towels requires a significant amount of water. This can put a strain on local water resources, especially in drought-prone areas.
Landfill Waste: Used paper towels end up in landfills, where they take up valuable space and decompose slowly, releasing methane, a potent greenhouse gas. Roughly thirty-seven percent of our countries waste is disposed of in landfills already, and we must all do our part in working to decrease that number!
Warehouse and Factory Manufacturing: The manufacturing process releases air pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, contributing to acid rain and respiratory problems. Burning wood pulp for energy can also release greenhouse gases.
