    There have been times where we experienced mold cleaning in bathrooms. Previously we would use Tide Detergent to removal the mold, with 'Clorox' bleach. Both worked pretty well and was able to removal the mold from the confined spaces in the bathrooms. Has we been embarking on using our own products to ensure the best results for cleaning. We will continue to use the knowledge we obtain to get our assignments properly cleaned.

    As an Eco Consultant, I work with many companies who see the writing on the wall and are focusing on transitioning their company to a healthier Eco-friendlier business.  Our world is in a global crisis and many of the government agencies are slow to react, seeing this we all know what direction that industry must take and what changes they need to make.  As business owners and managers, we often want to stick to what is known and comfortable to us but as industry leaders we realize changes need to be made.  One small but far-reaching change businesses can make is to transition to green janitorial companies. 

    This offers a 3-fold boost to any company who makes the change.  To begin with, the eco perspective in this is becomes part of the company wide transition.  This is really seen more by the employees and is a big part in showing them the company’s commitment to being globally intentioned with eco transition even if a small local company.  The second boost is health oriented.  Using eco products can create much a heathier environment for the entire office.  Simply having information sheets posted with statements like “We Use Safe Eco Products for All Our Cleaning and Janitorial Needs Creating A Healthier Office and Earth!” allows employees to know they are working in a company that cares.  Finally, it offers a foot hold of transition to demonstrating to the public this is a company that cares and is making changes.

    Making this transition is easy since there are more and more cleaning companies moving to Green or Eco Cleaning.  There are also a few evaluations you should follow in finding these companies.  First make sure the company you hire is a purely Green Cleaning Company!  We are seeing a lot of companies advertising as such and then using traditional chemical products.  This has been coined Green Washing and has become a problem in the industry.  The second part in finding the best cleaning company to make sure they are green certified.  There are several organizations offering green cleaning certifications the best is the International Janitorial Cleaning Services Association (IJCSA).  You can find these companies in your local area at https://www.ijcsa.org/Green-Cleaning-Services.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me at BryanAngstman@gmail.com.

    Growing up in more rural areas, it was just accustomed to go to the local store and grab whatever cleaner is on the shelf. Have you ever looked at the ingredient list? More and more harmful chemicals are placed on shelves in local markets and as consumers we just purchase it. But what if we started to look into the makeup of how dangerous these chemicals we use in every day life are. 

    While being accustomed to using these chemicals we start to notice an increase in allergies or difficulty breathing or a increase in heart rate. These adverse effects can be from the cleaners you use in your home. Often times aerosols emit chemicals into the air affects our respiratory system and our vision, thus polluting the air in our homes. Do you know the smell from your new mattress? It's formaldehyde and pollutes our air just by opening the plastic! It is also a carcinogen and respiratory irritant. 

    Green cleaners are typically are made of more natural ingredients. Lemon juice, vinegar, or even baking soda are great examples of non toxic cleaners that we can use in our everyday lives. The acidity in the lemon juice makes for a great cleaner and disinfectant. Vinegar is used to remove grease or wax and baking soda is a natural odor eliminator and can be used as a non abrasive cleaner. 

    Regular household cleaners may use some of the same natural properties but also have extra additives that directly effect our health over time. A more common household cleaner is bleach. Bleach itself is corrosive and in higher concentrates provides more risk. But bleach also pollutes the air around us and can cause respiratory illnesses such as asthma. Bleach contains sodium hypochlorite which is a common to cause issues when mixing with other chemicals specifically ammonia. When these products are mixed they can sometimes form chlorine gas which is also a bioweapon. 

    As can be deducted, more natural cleaning products pose less risk to our everyday health and the environment around us. When we continue to use cleaners that can harm us we stand the potential to destroy our health and the community around us. Its time to start thinking green when you clean. To help find this in your community you can always look to the IJCSA cleaning service directory for all your green cleaning services at the website below.

    So initially green cleaning products are expensive and just harsh to breath. But we found that simple green is a great chemical to use. Simple Green multi purpose is a safer choice product, and reduces the use of harmful chemicals. It has a nice fragrance and doesn't overpower the rooms.

    The benefit of having a green cleaning program is all of them! Green cleaning affects everyone and everything. More than anything, having a program that is easy to use and share with your customers is the best of all because more customers can get involved with improving their own cleaning methods. 

    When using greener cleaning products you reduce contact with harmful chemicals by surface contact, inhalation, or ingestion. Also having reusable resources such as micro fiber cloths to cut down on single paper usage saves our trees. Greener cleaning methods simply are the best hands down. The longer we wait to take our position, the more damage we continue to do to the planet.
