What is Green Cleaning
Green cleaning uses environmentally responsible products and methods that reduce the impact on human health and the environment while still delivering effective cleaning results. It encompasses everything from the products used to the equipment and procedures employed.
Benefits for Your Facility
Green cleaning improves indoor air quality, reduces chemical exposure for employees and cleaning staff, and demonstrates your commitment to environmental responsibility. Services like electrostatic disinfection can also use eco-friendly solutions. Many tenants and employees increasingly prefer facilities that prioritize sustainability.
Green Products and Methods
Green cleaning products are formulated to minimize environmental impact while maintaining cleaning effectiveness. This includes biodegradable formulas, reduced VOC emissions, and concentrated products that minimize packaging waste.
Certifications to Look For
Look for products certified by Green Seal, EPA Safer Choice, or LEED-compliant programs. Ask your janitorial provider about their green cleaning options and how they can be incorporated into your facility's cleaning program.
