Green Living

While the concept of Green Living seems new (even Earth Day was only started in 1970); it is really as ancient as civilization. It involves making choices that reduce impact on the environment. Impact that you create, and also the impact of the entire human species. There are four main categories for these choices. One, protect natural resources. From conservation to pollution prevention. Two, limit waste. In addition to recycling, consider how to limit consumption. Three, social responsibility. This involves shopping for local products; and fair trade around the world. Four, healthy living. Your commitment to personal health is directly reflected in the world around you including your home. Enjoy these articles that help create the world we want to live in.

When we still lie in bed we think about whether we can close our eyes for another five minutes, or whether we really have to get up now. We go through all the things on our to-do list and before we have even brushed our teeth, we are already in the office or thinking about dinner appointments. You will see that our mind spends a lot of time rambling on like a radio without an off-button. Let’s explore further...

Duurzaam ondernemen
Santens® gelooft dat duurzaam ondernemen een continu proces is, geen einddoel. Dag na dag spant het bedrijf zich in om het evenwicht tussen financieel economische resultaten, sociale belangen en het milieu - oftewel de drie P’s: people, planet en profit - te behouden en te verbeteren. Duurzaam ondernemen betekent voor Santens® dat elke “P” wordt geoptimaliseerd, zonder de balans tussen de drie domeinen te verliezen.

De nieuwe dimensie waterontharders: een tal van voordelen
De hardheid van water wordt voornamelijk veroorzaakt doordat het calcium en magnesium bevat. Deze stoffen veroorzaken echter kalkproblemen. Om dit op te lossen maken veel mensen gebruik van een waterontharder.
