    Sustainability is more than a choice – it’s a necessity 🌎 With increasing environmental regulations across Europe, businesses must stay informed about key eco-certifications and labels to ensure compliance with evolving standards. With this in mind, here are some important certifications and labels to look out for when sourcing your hygiene products: 🌐 Blue Angel: The eco-label that indicates that products adhere to stringent economically friendly standards. 🌐EU Ecolabel: A world-renowned scheme that promotes goods that demonstrate environmental excellence – a guide for making eco-conscious product choices. 🌐 FSC® & PEFC: Labels that certify wood is used from sustainable forestry, ensuring responsible sourcing – key when selecting ethical, recyclable hygiene paper. 🌐 Cradle to Cradle: Promotes design with materials that can be safely reused or naturally degraded. This means that all materials are safe for human health and the environment through all phases. 🌐 ISO 9000: A set of quality management standards ensuring products meet statutory and regulatory requirements. 🌐Dermatest®: An independent dermatology test, guaranteeing maximum safety for products used on our skin. 🌐 Lean & Green: A label indicating optimised CO2 emissions in the logistics and warehouse sectors. By focusing on site or process certifications and official product seals, Satino by WEPA helps customers make choices that contribute to protecting the environment. All businesses have a shared duty to look out for our planet. To learn more about our eco-certifications, go to: https://lnkd.in/eUG_YdAf #EULabels #Sustainability #SustainableProducts

    Did you know that around 80% of infections are spread by touch? 🦠 This is why prioritising your business’ hygiene strategy is crucial. One of the most effective ways to enhance hygiene and safety in your workplace is by integrating touch-free technology. Here’s why it’s a game-changer for your business: ✅Reduces the spread of infections: Touch-free devices like taps and dispensers minimise physical contact, significantly reducing the risk of cross-contamination. ✅ Sustainable water usage: Taps that automatically turn off help reduce water waste, ensuring your business contributes to environmental sustainability while saving on utility costs. ✅Improved user experience: Automated systems offer a modern, convenient, and efficient user experience, which can enhance overall satisfaction for employees and customers alike. By investing in touch-free solutions, you're not just promoting better hygiene—you're also making a sustainable and forward-thinking choice that benefits your business, employees, and customers 🌍  #Hygiene #Sustainability #ESG #Workplace
