Saving the planet wasn’t high on the agenda of Australians back in the 1990s – the decade when Earth Day went global and marine plastic pollution was first identified as an issue of concern.
While it may not have been a hot topic for most, sustainability was an absolute priority for us back when we established Swisstrade in 1997. Working in an industry that creates millions of tonnes of non-recyclable waste each year, we knew we wanted to be a part of the solution from day one.
And more than 25 years later, our passion for creating a better world for future generations has never been stronger.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do and has fuelled the development of so many innovative environment-friendly products, which we proudly champion – from our 100% natural, plastic-free Seedling Sole Slippers, to the revolutionary, recyclable bathroom dispenser system SHAPE, and two new eco-friendly, plastic-free bathroom accessories ranges – Pure White and Planet Positive.
With growing demand from guests for an enhanced eco-friendly experience, and single-use plastics bans on the horizon, there’s never been a better time to review your own environmental impact. It would be our great privilege to support your green initiatives and in finding ways to make your property more eco-friendly.
Together, we can protect our planet in the present to make a difference for the future.
Sustainably yours,
Peter Weingartner and the Swisstrade team
