Plastic Free July: the easiest swap in your salon

It's Plastic Free July.

For us, that's not just this month. (It's sort of the whole point.)

Your salon can join in without changing how you work.

The plastic hiding in your laundry cycle

For a typical hair salon, that is an estimated 45 plastic detergent/softener bottles alone every year, just from washing towels. Before a single one has touched a client.

Laundry bags. Delivery wrap and packaging. All of it adding up behind the scenes, every wash, every week.

Swap reusable towels for Scrummi, and that whole cycle goes with it.

No more washing. No more drying. No plastic building up in the background.

Same treatment room. Same standards. Same client experience, every single time.

And everything else that isn't a towel

Towels are one part of a salon's routine. They're not the only part, so we don't stop there.

Every Scrummi order arrives in biodegradable packaging that's fully compostable, not just recyclable in theory.

Why we don't lead with this

We're a certified B Corp, so it's not just talk. It's how we operate.

But sustainability, for us, isn't the headline. It's the thing sitting underneath everything else we do.

(It's what we do, not who we are.)

What matters more day to day: less time spent on laundry, more time spent with clients, and one less thing to manage behind the scenes.

This month, and the ones after it

Plastic Free July is a good prompt. A reason to look at the small habits that quietly cost more than they should, in time, money and everything else.

For us, that's not a once-a-year thing. It's the whole reason Scrummi exists.

Thank you for making the switch to a more sustainable solution and helping us on our mission to liberate the planet from laundry.

*Based on an estimated 2,254 wash loads per year for a typical 3 stylist hair salon seeing 8 clients per stylist per day across 313 working days, with each client using a cape and 2 towels. Calculated using standard 5 litre detergent and fabric softener bottles covering approximately 100 washes each. Figures are estimates only.
