Outdoor Eco- Friendly
The planet is ready to become more eco-friendly every day, perhaps it is just a new trend, but for many people it is a humanitarian mission.
Becoming an ecology person is the result of small daily gestures, which concern ideologies, food, clothing and home living instead.
How do you become more eco-friendly?
Certainly do not choose plastic water bottles from the shelves in the supermarket, eliminate fabric softener for the washing machine and buy an electric car.
The world of fashion has also changed, there are many brands and magazines that offer a supply chain of sustainable fabrics that do not use third world labor.
You can furnish your home, respecting nature, taking advantage of eco-furniture in harmony with the green lifestyle.
What materials should you choose to decorate the outdoor?
Purchase a design that uses biodegradable or recyclable materials, such as wood, bamboo, cardboard and wicker.
Farewell to glazes, powders and solvents. As for green design, you could opt for a synthetic grass, so as to reduce the water consumption of irrigation. Floating flooring is often installed in the outdoor area, both teak and eucalyptus are the most chosen.
Surely teak is very beautiful, at the same time it deteriorates over time, so another excellent alternative is the composite, made of PVC and wood powders, a totally recyclable solution.
When it comes to wood, remember to ask for green certification, which assigns a certain degree of eco-sustainability to the wood purchased.
Among the best known certifications are the FSC mark, issued by the Forest Stewardship Council, the global organization that has established internationally valid norms and standards, and the PEFC, a program for the recognition of national forest certification schemes.
To brighten the garden or terrace, surely choose solar lamps, or rather photovoltaic lamps, they work with small solar panels, which capture the light of day.
Depending on the light model, the solar panel is positioned inside the lamp or outside and is connected by a cable.
The main thing is to position the panel in an illuminated part during the day.
If you are in love with an aquatic environment, which integrates with the landscape and nature choose a bio-swimming pool, you will be able to enjoy a natural bath in fresh water, a landscaping effect in balance with fauna and flora.
Bio-swimming pools use natural filters, microorganisms, aquatic plants and automatic aspirations, they are never emptied, this guarantees significant water savings.
Are there verandas eco-friendly?
Certainly yes, bioclimatic greenhouses are a must for energy saving, they have a passive solar system, with a real greenhouse effect, which heats the surrounding environment through sunlight.
They must be installed in a south position to have an energy saving of 10% during the winter season.
They are perfect for creating living areas that can be used all year round, they can be closed with windows in the perimeter and furnished according to your needs.
For furniture, as in fashion, pay attention to fabrics, prefer organic fabrics and products made with eco-sustainable materials.
Do you want to have a barbecue with friends?
If you have an outdoor space, you definitely want to invite your friends home and organize a nice barbecue, but that the traditional barbecue produces a lot of smoke that is harmful to people, the environment and annoys the neighbors.
For this reason, ecological barbecues are born that work without combustion, you will have a faster and healthier cooking. Eco-friendly barbecues are also perfect for indoor use, so they have fantastic after use.
Now, you just have to design your outdoor in complete green lifestyle
