Eco-Friendly Reusable Napkins - St Croix Linen Hospitality Linen Services

June 15,2024

There has been a push recently to remove plastic straws from restaurants and cafes and to use more eco-friendly and sustainable options for beverages. This has resulted in a lot less plastic waste around the world! For continued opportunites to remove waste would be to replace disposable napkins with reusable napkins! They are much more earth friendly by using up to 17 times less water and create up to 5 times less smog than disposable paper napkin production. If just 50% of the US population uses 3 paper napkins a day, that totals 450,000,000 napkins for 1 day – or more than 164 billion per year! We can all do our part to reduce paper waste and instead of using 3 paper napkins, use just 1 cloth reusable napkin.
