With so many different factors impacting the environment on a daily basis, it\u2019s becoming more apparent that we need to take more action to look after our planet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Here at Bow Lane Dental we have made some sustainable changes, and we will keep on looking for more ways to help keep our dental practice as Eco-friendly as possible.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"Eco-friendly<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

One of our latest changes in the practice has been to ditch plastic cups. We\u2019ve now opted for a plant-based cup that are lightweight, strong and have a low carbon footprint. The sustainable cups are fully recyclable and can also be composted in just 120 days! You can read more about them here<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We also offer recyclable coffee cups in our reception waiting area, and use recycled coffee pods too!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Taking care of business <\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Recycled<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We\u2019ve swapped our toilet roll for an Eco-friendly, recycled version. The toilet paper is made WITHOUT trees and 50% of profits go to help build toilets for people who need them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The company do not use any inks or scents. According to their website, more people in the world have mobile phones than toilets. Think about that next time you\u2019re texting on the loo! You can find out more about the brand by clickinghere<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
