Eco-Friendly Practices: Salon Echo strives to help people look, feel and be healthier in ways that are both exceptional and harmonious with our environment. LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability) was part of Salon Echo’s design from the business plan forward. The unique interior design was created through the combined efforts of interior designer, Lyn Falk of Solterra Studios, and materials consultant, Matthew Samsel of Stone Prairie Studios, to use sustainable and recycled material. Salon Echo has gone to a great deal of effort to create a new direction for what a spa can represent. The things that you put on your hair and skin are very important influences on the quality of your life. Salon Echo feels that it is also important that the environment in which one enjoys services and products be healthy. From the mesquite hardwood floor in the Studio and Spa to the recycled vinyl flooring in the Salon the environmentally aware design ethic has been applied beautifully. Low V.O.C. adhesives were used throughout. AMF Safecoat low V.O.C., formaldehyde-free paint has been used on all walls. Fabrics made from recycled material cover the furniture. Working surfaces have been constructed from grass. Exhaust air passes through a heat exchanger so that less energy is needed to heat or cool incoming fresh air. Mesquite is one of the hardest floorings available. It is harder than more familiar hardwoods like maple. Yet it is a shrub, not a tree and by virtue of its almost weed like nature, it can be clear-cut and the stumps will generate new growth that can be harvested again and again. Salon Echo mesquite flooring was grown, harvested, milled and kiln-dried in South Texas. Salon Echo has used PolyFlor flooring to present a look reminiscent of 1950’s linoleum but the resemblance ends there. It is instead the top of a sandwich of materials designed to be comfortable for clients and stylists to walk on. It is made with recycled poly vinyl chloride (P.V.C). The polyvinyl is bonded to the rubber for a slight “give” using low V.O.C. adhesive. The rubber underlayment was supplied by EcoRubber and is made from 100% post-consumer tire rubber. Salon Echo’s furniture is covered in fabric made from recycled P.E.T. pop bottles. The furniture manufacturers have used these fabrics as they would have used any other fabric. Working surfaces are constructed from kirei which is a sheet material made from sorghum fiber.
