In an industry known for creativity, it’s time salons take the same innovative approach to sustainability. Every day, thousands of salons across the UK throw away heaps of aluminium foil, empty colour tubes, and other metal waste—materials that are 100% recyclable. With salon recycling on the rise, it's time to shine a light on the easiest and most impactful switch your salon can make: hairdressing foil recycling and salon metal recycling with Green Salon Collective.
The Hidden Waste in Hairdressing
When you think about salon waste, you might picture hair clippings or plastic packaging. But one of the most overlooked forms of waste is aluminium—specifically used hair foils and colour tubes. These are often binned after a single use, despite being infinitely recyclable. According to industry research, UK salons send hundreds of tonnes of aluminium to landfill each year. That’s where Green Salon Collective comes in.
Why Green Salon Collective?
Green Salon Collective is the UK’s leading authority on salon recycling, and they’ve made it incredibly easy for salons to recycle materials that would otherwise end up in the bin. Their hairdressing foil recycling programme collects used foils, empty colour tubes, aerosol cans, and other salon metals—diverting them from landfill and turning them into new, usable products.
Stand Out as a Sustainable Salon
More and more clients are choosing salons that care about the planet. Partnering with Green Salon Collective not only reduces your environmental footprint, but also adds value to your brand. From in-salon displays to digital assets, you'll be able to shout loud and proud about your green credentials.
Incorporating salon metal recycling into your daily routine also educates your team and clients about the importance of sustainability in the beauty industry. It’s a small change that makes a big difference.
