GREENER CLEANER PLAN

Everyone knows businesses free of dust, dirt and grime are visually appealing, which is essential to success. Beyond the visual benefits, cleaning is also key to maintaining a safe, healthy indoor environment. Are your cleaning products and practices environmentally friendly? Now is a great time to take inventory and evaluate your cleaning routine.

Here are some choices to keep in mind when thinking about your company’s cleaning strategy.

Floor Mats

With the right outdoor mats, you can stop a lot of debris from coming in. For example, a scraper mat used with a classic mat traps up to 85% of dust and dirt that would otherwise be tracked through your doorway. Less dirt means less cleaning and chemicals.

Mops

Reach for wet mops that are antimicrobial to reduce bacteria buildup, not to mention odor. And using dry mops helps pick up and trap dust and dirt. The right combination of mops can contribute to a safer and healthier environment.

Greener Products

Look for cleaning supplies with safer chemical ingredients. The EPA designates this group of cleaners with a Safer Choice label. These products help protect the environment and are safer for employees and customers – all without sacrificing quality of performance.

Cleaning Around Food

Make sure you’re using cleaners that have been certified safe for use in food establishments. Products that have the NSF logo have been tested by an independent certification company and meet strict standards for public health protection. NSF focuses on public health, safety and environmental quality.
