When Green Marketing Masks Poor Performance

Walk into some “eco-labelled” washrooms and you’ll see plenty of green posters.

But behind the signs, outdated fixtures still waste water and energy. Public washrooms can consume up to 90% of a facility’s water and not every “low-flow” product is as efficient as it claims.

For facility managers, spotting and avoiding greenwashing within their own washrooms and within the products they procure is critical. Rising operational costs, ESG compliance, and the push for measurable ROI mean there’s no room for “eco” claims without evidence.

The future of public washrooms is connected, data-driven, and transparent.

In our most recent blog, we cover a greenwashing red flag that addresses marketing getting more attention than actual performance.

climate emergency, it also offers immense opportunities for products like Propelair to intervene

"Read more about the 10 red flags every FM should know in our latest article.

As facility managers, you’re on the frontline of procurement — and that means demanding certifications, data, and third-party validation before accepting “green” claims at face value.

Red flag #1: No data-backed water savings

A true water-saving fixture should state the litres per flush (e.g., 6L vs. 1.35L) or flow rate per minute.

Ideally, usage data should be monitored and reported through smart or IoT-enabled systems. A clear red flag are products that claims to be a water-saving toilet or a low-flow tap but does not specify how much water they actually use. Facility managers should push suppliers to quantify their claims. If a system can’t provide verified water-saving figures or ongoing monitoring, treat it as a red flag!

In our latest newsletter, we break down 10 red flags facility managers should watch for when procuring washroom solutions, from vague “eco” claims and false recycling systems to green marketing that overshadows real performance.
• Practical FM tips included for each red flag.
• Clear guidance to help you separate genuine impact from greenwashing.
• Insights on how to ensure your washrooms deliver measurable ROI and support ESG goals.
