Envirodry Towels
Perth, WA
www.envirodrytowels.com.au - 1300 738 385 - envirodrytowels@gmail.com
Envirodry eco-friendly towels - the smart solution for users of traditional cotton towels
Envirodry towels are good for your business, and they also contribute significantly to reducing wasted water and power consumption in the process of constantly washing and drying cotton towels. Replacing and dealing with cotton towels is inefficient for your business. If you are washing your own towels with domestic washers it is unlikely they are fresh and hygienic enough to be used again on your clients, customers or patients. In medical practices, the shift toward single use products and instruments has been growing - and changing to single use style towels makes perfect sense to provide 100% fresh and hygienic towels.
Hair salons, beauty salons, gyms, massage services, cafés, restaurants and health practitioners can all benefit from a change to our eco-friendly Envirodry towels. Our towels are already improving the client experience for many of our customers. If you have not tried them yourself, simply contact us for a free sample and change the way you handle your towel resources.

For added convenience for both café owners and customers, there’s HuskeeSwap. By registering as a member, customers can participate in a world-first cup replacement system. Each time they buy a coffee, they will trade in a used cup and receive their order in another, freshly cleaned HuskeeCup. This way, there’s no waiting around, no extra fiddling with lids and no stress about washing a reusable coffee cup in the office. Cafés can register to be HuskeeSwap locations, and cultivate a steady crowd of loyal HuskeeCup fans who cycle through cups for years without ever disposing of any plastics into landfill.

Working with a network of Ecotourism certified tour operators and local family businesses enables us to create once in a lifetime adventures for both Australian and international travellers.
At the core of everything we do is our values and our commitment to meaningfully give back to nature.
Clients earn rewards with every dollar they spend through our Eco-rewards programme which is currently supporting the World Land Trust, one of the most trusted and respected conservation organisations in the world. Each time a client reaches 1000 eco-rewards, we fund the purchase of a 1⁄4 acre of endangered wildlife habitat on their behalf.
