There are several ways to clean a building. Whether we use commercial grade cleaning products, disinfecting solutions to prevent the spread of viruses, or environmentally safe, Green Cleaning, to protect the environment and eliminate allergic reactions, our goal is to provide a clean and inviting environment in every building.

Many of our clients are switching to Green Cleaning products because of the benefits to the health and wellbeing of the people they serve. Here are some of the reasons why Green Cleaning has become so popular.

Toxic Warnings.

When viewing the labels you see on many cleaning products, you can imagine that most chemicals aren’t really that safe. Many chemicals (e.g., chlorine and ammonia), when mixed together, can be downright dangerous. Because some people are especially vulnerable to the toxins in cleaning products, it’s a good idea to insist on green cleaning to ensure the safety of your tenants and visitors.

Protecting Against Some Health Concerns

It’s not unusual for people to experience coughing, sneezing, skin rashes and even headaches when they are exposed to certain chemicals. Think about the reactions you may have had after entering a store surrounded by scented candles, or perfumes that may have been sprayed. The coughing, sneezing or headache that you may have experienced as a result, are similar to the reactions people have when they are exposed to chemicals that may linger in the air long after use. These chemicals can be particularly hard on people suffering from asthma and allergy symptoms. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 in 3 people have asthma – that’s more than 25 million Americans. Harsh chemicals found in some cleaning products can trigger asthma reactions. And certainly, some of these chemicals can even be carcinogens. The truth is that fumes from some cleaning products can induce asthma in people who are otherwise healthy.Instead, most “green” cleaning products are made from plants or natural resources that can alleviate problems for many people.

Helping the Environment

Many of us are sensitive to environmental needs and may even go out of our way to support businesses and causes that work to protect the environment. Employing green cleaning in your commercial building makes smart business sense. Green cleaning products are mostly manufactured using sustainable, safe, non-toxic and biodegradable ingredients that won’t negatively impact the environment.

The Best Decision

Green cleaning is the best alternative to cleaning with harsh chemicals. It’s time for most businesses to switch to green cleaning, keeping in mind the benefit of the health concerns of clients and tenants, and for the environmental effects on the environment.
