Green Tip of the Month

Turn It In

We gathered so much great information while researching our February Green Scene on product recycling ("A Higher Purpose") that it was difficult to whittle it all down. So here's one more: Start a recycle/refill program.

Scott Kerschbaumer, co-owner of ESSpa Kozmetika Organic Skin Care in Pittsburgh, did it at his facility. ESSpa clients who bring empty product containers to the spa receive a 20% discount on the refill, which employees accomplish after spraying the bottle with colloidal silver solution to disinfect it.

Kerschbaumer says that the move helps save money because he can keep more bulk product in stock than retail. It also encourages guests to become more loyal. "It provides a way for our clients to participate in our environmentally responsible mission while allowing us to reduce our overall waste," he says.

Another side benefit? The program helps frequent travelers, who make use of ESSpa’s extensive collection of previously used containers that meet TSA carryon requirements.
