Sustainability can no longer be ignored in our society. As a company, it is therefore essential to move with this green trend and to choose sustainable green maintenance. At Multi Masters Group, we embrace this trend by establishing strong, sustainable partnerships with our clients. But what does sustainability really mean? It can be interpreted in different ways, and that includes garden maintenance. How do you ensure that your business parking or garden contributes to a better environment for everyone? Our experts at Green Masters are happy to share their advice on how to make it as environmentally friendly as possible.
Green, greener, greenest
There are a lot of ways to maintain the greenery in your yard or parking lot in an environmentally friendly way. Think about an electric lawn mower or alternative weed control without pollutants. But it is also important to let nature do its job. Even without raking or mowing, greenery can feel free to take care of itself. And a nature-friendly environment also attracts birds and insects, which in turn provide a healthy biotope.
Sustainable green maintenance requires wise use of water
Summer is upon us and many people are getting out their lawn sprinklers and watering cans again. But did you know that you are wasting up to 1,000 gallons of drinking water annually to maintain your garden? You can do otherwise! With a rain barrel, you collect rainwater and store it efficiently until you need it. Preferably water flowers and plants in the morning so that it can soak in well and the soil becomes less susceptible to fungi.
Being environmentally friendly with your garden also means minimizing the presence of greenhouse gases in your environment. Thanks to the use of electric gardening machines with a rechargeable battery, you ensure a clean and odorless atmosphere. In addition, your environment enjoys more peace of mind, as an electric lawnmower or hedge trimmer makes less noise than a gasoline model and is more efficient in use.
Proper waste disposal and sorting
Another aspect of sustainability is proper waste disposal and sorting. Thanks to biodegradable garbage bags, which are available everywhere these days, you deal with waste disposal in a sustainable way. You reduce the presence and negative effects of plastics and contribute to recycling. In addition, production is cheaper than traditional packaging because it uses natural materials such as plant fibers.
In addition, composting is also an easy way to make your environment more sustainable. By doing it the right way, you reduce waste by processing your own vegetable, fruit and garden waste. This also saves energy. Plus, at the end of the process, you get your own eco-friendly manure for plants and flowers.
A fresh and new look
Are you in the process of (re)landscaping your business garden or parking lot? Then opt for a sustainable design. The appropriate combination of trees and plants and sustainable garden paving will turn your professional outdoor environment into an environmentally friendly overall picture. Butterfly bushes, ornamental grasses and sunflowers not only give your garden a beautiful look, but are also extremely low-maintenance. Anyone looking for low-maintenance trees should choose evergreen trees that do not lose their color and leaves. Think of holm oak, holly or laurel. Besides yew, laurel is one of the most popular choices for a sustainable garden fence.
Moreover, garden layout also plays a big role within garden maintenance. You need to create an ecosystem for yourself, plants and animals to achieve a sustainable look and feel that is efficient to maintain. It’s all about smart material choices, especially reusable and local materials. Choose plants that can withstand both drought and heavy rain, and go for at least one large tree or shrub. After all, trees provide shade, produce oxygen and give shelter to birds. All things you need for a healthy environment.
