Greenstuff

Lorraine Jenks

Greenstuff has been created to identify green and eco-friendly products for you; products which are particularly suitable for the hospitality industry.

We don’t sell anything; we are simply a free directory of suppliers and our function is to help buyers find the right suppliers and for subscribing suppliers to reach thousands of potential buyers.

The Greenstuff link is a division of the well-established www.hotelstuff.co.za website and was launched during Hostex this year.

South Africans have a proud history of conservation, concentrating on our natural heritage, but we have very poor commitment to the “greenness” of equipment, furniture, chemicals and the sustainability of products and services that are used to run the lodgings.

Eco tourism is about protecting our natural inherited ecosystems; our indigenous peoples, fauna and flora, but it is also about the impact on the environment of every single thing we use - from the creation of that product, though its manufacture, its use and finally its disposal.

Greenstuff identifies individual products from the hundreds of suppliers listed on our 6-year-old Hotelstuff website, so that when an establishment wants to “go green” we’ve done half the work for you – and, if its not there, we’ll find it for you.
