With ongoing economic pressures continuing to make life difficult for salons, there’s never been a more important time to cut costs. As salons struggle with rising energy bills, increasing Business Rates, VAT, the National Minimum Wage and Employers NIC, achieving cost reductions while investing to expand services, enhance client experiences and reach your sustainability goals is a challenge.
That said, there are economic and environmental advantages to upgrading equipment. Takara Belmont’s National Sales Manager, Katie Fielder, shares how their products and innovations are helping salons achieve their environmental aims and cost cutting goals.
RS Series – reducing water consumption by 20% at the backwash
Takara Belmont’s RS Series features a Versatile Dual-Flow Shower Head and precision thermostatic control that reduces energy costs and water consumption by 20%. “This innovation cuts costs while five model designs enhance every backwash experience. Features include a wide, deep and adjustable tilting basin with our signature gel-filled neck cushion and premium upholsteries that provide unrivalled comfort and long-lasting performance.”
Roller Ball F – saving energy, increasing efficiency and enhancing colour results
As a world first in colour processing technology, Takara Belmont’s Roller Ball F colour processor conserves energy and reduces processing time by up to 75% without causing damage to the hair. Its far-infrared accelerator uses a high-efficiency rotating carbon heating element with fast, flexible temperature control. This ensures even heat distribution without compromising the hair’s structure resulting in more vibrant, durable colour and shinier, healthier hair.

Takara Belmont – a first choice for sustainability
With longevity and sustainability inherent in every product, Takara Belmont has developed state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, while using sustainably sourced components and developing recycled fabrics to reduce costs and environmental impacts.
One example of sustainability and cost efficiency in action is the Adria II styling chair. “Cushions on chairs like the Adria II are replaceable,” says Katie. “This means salons can continue using the chair for many years while refreshing the cushions to return it to pristine condition. This extends the life of
their equipment by many years and avoids replacement costs.”
As Takara Belmont continues to introduce innovative products that deliver reliability and enhanced performance, affordability and expanding growth opportunities for salons are also high on the agenda. Katie comments: “Our equipment withstands the rigours of constant use without degrading or breaking down. This supports your sustainability and cost cutting mission by minimising the need for repair and replacement, plus it prevents lost income due to downtime.
“Investing in our equipment not only enhances luxury and comfort, it also allows new menu options to be introduced, such as Japanese Head Spas, scalp care and beauty."
0% Finance Lease –The Ultimate in Economic Sustainability
Investing in world-class equipment is made possible with Takara Belmont’s 0% zero deposit Finance Lease Scheme.
This innovative scheme is 100% tax deductible for the duration of the agreement, and it enables salons to invest affordably with fixed monthly payments over 2 years without any initial capital outlay or deposits. After the term, salons can own the equipment outright with one final monthly payment, or upgrade and start a fresh agreement.
In conclusion, Katie comments: “Salons recognise the reputational and cost benefits of adopting an eco-philosophy; it differentiates their salon, gives clients the experiences they want, and it saves money. There’s never been a better or more important time to upgrade experiences and protect the economic viability of your salon.”
