The Bright Laundry has not only been trying to do its part by installing 36 kilowatts of solar panels (increasing its solar capacity by 300 per cent); they are looking at all other areas of the business including setting up a water recycling system and making the business being completly plastic free.
They have been thinking of innovative ways to prevent their stained and ripped bedding going into landfill by giving it to several charities to ‘recycle’ the material. These include the making of handkerchiefs to be put into backpacks for school children which are filled by the Bright Uniting Church and given to Pacific Island school children, a charity in Melbourne making bags which are filled with essentials for refugees and the local compound and RSPCA in Melbourne to be used for bedding for animals.
SUO congratulates the Bright Laundry on all their efforts and for setting an inspring example for our community.
