Making Eco-Conscious Choices

One of the basic principles of green cleaning is that cleaning is to protect the health of the people that live, work, visit or study in the buildings we maintain, not just to make the buildings shiny.

Green cleaning gives us the opportunity to create a truly clean environment while taking into consideration all of the impact our methods and products might have on human health and the planet, both short and long term.

Since we don't always know what those consequences are, it is a good idea to make conservative, eco-conscious choices.

Green Cleaning is becoming the standard and more and more people are looking for green cleaning products. Though many still have concerns about how well the green products will clean, there are those products which we have relied on for years that are now becoming green seal certified.

Hillyard has introduced that now their popular cleaner "Top Clean" is now green seal certified. This means that a reliable product that does the job is now among the green family.

Green Cleaning More Than Hype

Recently I found this post about green cleaning and whether it is just hype or is it real. My opinion has always been that this is a real method of not just cleaning better but will in fact help reduce health issues and improve the environment.

I guess people have their own ideas, some are for it and others not so much as you can see in this post. There seems to me that there is simply too much information supporting green cleaning that not.

So is green cleaning just hype? I think not.

It is important for success to develop, plan and execute. When you apply this principle to your green cleaning and follow the eight guidelines set forth you can have a successfull green cleaning program.

Choosing environmentally responsible products is a powerful way to make your spending make a difference. Caring for a commercial or insitutional facility is a huge task. Developing and implementing a green cleaning program that effectively protects occupants' health, while minimizing cleaning's impact on the environment is equally significant.
