On World Recycling Day, businesses across the UK are being encouraged to look beyond recycling rates and focus on how materials are reused more intelligently. At Northwood, this mindset is embedded across our washroom dispensing solutions, particularly within our Natural Hand Towels and Roll Towel.

Choosing recycled products is more than a sustainable choice – it’s a smart one. By keeping valuable fibres in use, reducing waste, and supporting local recycling systems, recycled tissue helps protect the environment without compromising on quality.

When people think about sustainability in buildings, washrooms aren’t always the first place that comes to mind. But they should be, it’s an easy win, especially with our support!

High-footfall environments demand more from washroom infrastructure. When usage is constant and peaks are intense, maintaining hygiene, availability and cost control becomes a strategic priority for facilities teams.
