The Green Spa Toolkit is designed as a “first-steps” guide to greening a spa’s operations. It is written for busy spa professionals who are looking for guidance to launch greening programs. The Toolkit is intended to serve as a living document that will evolve with the rapidly changing field of industry greening.

The Green Spa Toolkit is being written in stages by GSN, and is available to members, who are invited to provide feedback and questions to help us shape the Toolkit into the optimum resource for spa greening.
