Go Green Efforts: ECO FRIENDLY UMBRELLA DRYER

On rainy days, it is a common sight at the Clubhouse that the flooring around the entrance becomes wet and slippery. This is caused from dripping wet umbrellas brought in by people and poses a risk of slip and fall. To prevent such accidents, the Club does provide disposable plastic umbrella covers for people to use. The utilization of these umbrella covers contribute significantly to the trash generated. Hence, these umbrella covers are not environmentally friendly and also add to the Club’s consumable costs.

Thus came the idea of introducing an automatic umbrella dryer to do away with the need for such plastic covers was proposed. With this device, zero plastic waste will be generated. The access rain water deposited in the dryer may also be collected and channelled for other uses such as the toilet flushing system or watering of plants. We look forward to introducing more environmentally friendly initiatives in the future.
