Who we are
You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there’s more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good. We put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what’s inside that counts - whether that’s an ingredient in a product or the minerals in a smartphone.
The department
The laundry department provides a 5* service to the Lush UK Spas, The Training Rooms, Hairlab and other areas of the business when required. It’s a service that is responsible for the laundry, from collection to drop off and everything in between, to ultimately save the business money by not outsourcing the service. The service is reflective of the Spa store standards and needs to continue to run and grow efficiently alongside them.
The Laundry's aim is to become a countrywide department for all Spa locations. Existing spas will be added to the laundry portfolio over the coming year, subsequently, we are expecting the demand to steadily increase and therefore the room to become busier over the coming months.
