1 Energy saving LED lamps
Lighting is a large contributor to electricity costs in hospitality. Replace incandescent or halogen lamps with LED lamps for huge savings. You can save up to 85% on electricity costs and LED lamps can last up to 45 times longer than standard lamps.
2 Microfibre E-cloth
Eco cloths reduce the need to use cleaning chemicals - just add water and clean - but they are not suitable for use in food preparation areas. Using smaller amounts of cleaning products saves money and cuts down on pollution. And also helps to prevent allergic
reactions to these products.
3 Ecosure Light a space paint
Light and space uses up to 20% less light energy, meaning lighting can be set to lower levels or switched on for shorter periods.
4 Recheable batteries
Batteries can be recharged up to 1000 times, saving £1,000s over their life span and lasts up to 40% longer than ordinary nickel-cadmium batteries. As well as saving significant amounts of money on buying new batteries, using rechargeable ones cuts down on waste disposal.
5 Switch it off!

The energy meter helps you to understand which appliances use most power so that you can adapt your usage or exchange them for more efficient equivalent.
7 Dryer Balls

Giving guests/staff control over the level of heating in their rooms mean that they are less likely to open the window if it is too hot, especially as many people like to sleep in a cooler room. You can save up to 8% on heating costs by turning the thermostat down by 1%.
11 Standby saver
Research suggests that leaving electrical equipment on standby can reduce the lifespan by an average of 15% and creates a needless fire risk. One standby saver installed in a home can save more then £43p,a., so business can save much more.
