3 easy ways to reduce waste and costs

Working in hospitality doesn’t have to mean high energy costs and large amounts of waste. Here are three simple ways you can reduce yours.

It’s a trap many catering and hospitality businesses fall into. Spending out on cleaning products that just don’t do the job or equipment that eats up energy but performs poorly.

Making a few smart choices to keep energy usage and waste down can mean the difference between a profitable month and lost revenue. Here are some simple changes you can make to help cut yours.

Investing in the right kit
Cheap and cheerful machinery might seem like an attractive option when you’re budgeting for equipment. In the long run, cheaper, less-efficient products guzzle energy and cost you much more, not to mention the poor level of cleanliness you’re likely to get from them. Investing in high quality, energy-efficient kit, like the right dishwasher, can make all the difference.

Choosing the right chemicals
You don’t have to douse your equipment in harsh chemicals to get an ultra-clean finish. In fact, the trend for more natural, environmentally-conscious cleaning is on the rise. By switching to something like Pro-well’s environmentally friendly cleaning detergents, you can get the sparking results that customers expect, without wasting money on multiple washes or abrasive chemicals.

Be biological
As a hospitality or catering company, being aware of the waste you produce is extremely important. Not only do you want to limit it as much as possible, but it also pays to be mindful of the impact you’re having on the environment, too.

Make sure your pipes stay clean, clear and grease-free by using bio-cleaners and bio-degreasers. They’ll help you keep your business up and running, without the hassle of large plumber bills, maintenance costs or the worry of dumping large amounts of chemicals into your drains.

By making conscientious choices and simple changes, you’ll be able to reduce your long-term business costs and your impact on the environment easily. That’s something we can all benefit from!
