The German leading brand in sanitary fittings, GROHE, has shared some tips on water saving on
the continent of Africa, as part of the 2017 World
Earth Day through its commitment to innovative design with a strong focus
on sustainability, reports NaijaAgroNet.
This year’s theme for Earth Day is “Environmental and
Climate Literacy,” GROHE said that for sustainability sake, is a corporate
value with a tradition and a future.
GROHE, NaijaAgroNet
gathered, has developed a wide portfolio of advanced product technologies and
launched also a series of awareness campaigns and programs to change mindsets
and habits.
Since 2009, NaijaAgroNet
also gathered that GROHE has launched the Green Mosque Initiative in many
countries, whereby the company partners with local entities to install
water-efficient products in the ablution rooms of mosques to help the
respective regions achieve sustainable reduction in water consumption.
The Vice President of GROHE Egypt, North and West Africa, Mohammed
Ataya, said Muslim worshippers' ritual ablutions consume between 10 and 15
liters of water per day, stressing that every possibility to save water
therefore has a great impact on consumption, asserting, “mosques play an
important role in people’s day-to-day lives.”
The initiative, NaijaAgroNet
reports, has reduced water consumption for the cleansing rituals by roughly 30
per cent which is good for the environment and helps cut costs.
“Water saving taps and showers and water saving flush
systems are two of the main ways that everyday citizens can contribute to
protecting the environment, and sustainability is one of the core values and a top
priority in the creation of every GROHE product for bathrooms and from the
design to development stages.” Ataya said.
In addition, Ataya said, quality materials, first-class
design and advanced engineering all play an important role in saving water,
citing for example, GROHE EcoJoy hand showers with the feature as an integrated
flow limiter, an Eco button or spray dimmer which lets user choose when to
reduce the water flow.
GROHE, says it agrees strongly with the Earth Day ethos that
everyone needs to be empowered with the knowledge and the products to inspire
action and protect the environment. Noting that the individual choice to reduce
water consumption is only one of the many strategies needed to address the issue
of water scarcity but it gives each person a role to play in protecting the
planet.
