    Bloodborne pathogens and other contagious substances are very prevalent in today's world. It is because of this that following through on proper bloodborne pathogen safety is so important in stopping the spread of these unseen dangers.  Everyday we see in the news of the spread of things such as mercer and C-dif in hospitals and health care centers.  If procedures are followed through correctly then this would not be an issue.  but alas it is a real reality in many health care settings.  Not following protocol in the food service industry has also bought a new level of transmission into the world of bloodborne contagious pathogens.  

    How then does one stop the spread of such things?  By following the bloodborne pathogen protocol when cleaning up various spills such as urine, feces and blood.  It is important to remember to use the right material for the job and to always use a solution that is specifically made to sanitize and disinfect.  Although there are several products on the market a proper bleach solution can also do the job.

    Lastly, ensuring you have the right equipment for the job is as important as using the right solution.  Some of the equipment that may be necessary to utilize is as simple as proper gloves and goggles. While another job may necessitate needing to wear a full gown, mask, gloves, face shield, or goggles.  Having the right cleaning and sanitizing solution and the right equipment for the job is necessary in the fight to keep everyone safe and healthy.

    Everyday cleaning products have been shown to have a more harmful effect than green products. 

    Green cleaning and products are consumer friendly and account to sustainable business practices. Air quality will rise while having a lower level of volatile organic compounds.

    Cleaning with chemicals has a negative effect on one’s well-being, the environment, and finances.

    According to the IJCSA section titled “Potential adverse health effects from exposure to common household products”, many cleaners can cause irritation to different parts of the body. Glass cleaners can cause irritation to skin, eyes, nose and throat because it includes isopropyl alcohol. This chemical is a great disinfectant yet the long-term risks that come along with its performance is not suitable to one’s health. Side-effects can cause people to be out of work for extended periods of time. Also, customers can have a negative outlook on a business whose indoor atmosphere contributed to such harmful chemical reactions.  

    The “Potential adverse health effects from exposure to common household products” section in the article also informs readers that everyday cleaning chemicals can correlate with unpleasant sensations. According to the section, multipurpose cleaners often contain 2-butoxyethanol, which can cause confusion, lightheadedness, headaches and dizziness. This chemical can easily put someone out of the right state of mind, causing liability to occur. 

    An increase in liability is not cheap, which is why these cleaning products cause a harmful effect on finances. Liability in a commercial setting can costs a company way more money than it would be saving with natural green products. Occupants of the space may have negative reactions to these cleaning materials, causing them to take sick days, or even slow down their work rate. For example, an employee can have an allergic reaction to the cleaning product that was used to clean the building the prior night. Since the employee has been sneezing all day, this can slow down their productivity and also serve as a distraction to surrounding employees. If that employee would have gone home or called in sick, then productivity levels would have been way down for that day because they are not fully staffed; either way the company will be taking a financial hit. If the company used green products, they would not have to be worried about those toxins in the atmosphere; therefore, causing everyone to remain focused and save money from using natural products.

    There are a lot of factors that directly and indirectly correlate with the harmful effects of everyday cleaning chemicals. A lot of consumers do not even do their research behind these everyday cleaners but use them on a consistent basis. Natural green products will have a positive effect on an indoor place compared to those that contain chemicals because of the way the human body reacts. Companies and consumers will preserve on money, health, liability, and increase performance.

    Servicing many customers throughout our years in business, we find that it is a common misconception that Bleach is the end all be a all to mold killing and cleaning. What we find at Trippeter Property Services is that is not the case at all. In some cases bleach can actually make mold worse because of the water content, especially trying to use it for cleaning drywall. Make sure that if you are using bleach it it on hard non-porous surface.

    It’s a known fact that it provides peace of mind to an individual or business that those they do business with substantiate their ability to do the job by providing evidence of a certification.  Knowing that you entrust a company that’s certified solidifies that they not only can do the job but that they understand the work on a deeper level.  While most think that cleaning is something that anyone can do, that’s actually a false assumption.

    Cleaning is more than just wiping down furniture or a tub.  A reputable green cleaning company understands the chemicals and the science of their products.  Furthermore, they understand soils and how those chemicals interact with those chemicals.  Understanding the right chemical for the right job is imperative to whether a surface is actually clean or not. 

    A green cleaning company, in many ways, needs to understand this more than a typical cleaning company.  While it’s important to have a cleaning method, it’s equally important to know what works on what surfaces.  With a green company, you also have to know what’s toxic, what’s safe, what’s acceptable by certain standards, and the health benefits associated with using green products.  Green Bright Cleaning Service doesn’t just clean, we do it for a more profound purpose than just having a clean home or work environment.  We do it to provide a better way of life, help those with health issues, help reduce that chances of health-related products due to toxins, and help the environment by reducing toxins in the air and in wastewater.

    On average, a typical household contains a minimum of 62 toxic chemicals1.  Those chemicals may pose a serious health threat to everyone in the home, including children2, just by the spread of toxic dust from the chemicals3.  Even individuals who are aware of effects and shop for “green” products in the store need to take pause before throwing a cleaning product claiming to be eco-friendly into the basket.  Many manufacturers claim they have “green” products but still contain serious toxins4.  A company that claims to have environmentally safe products that are not is called “greenwashing”.  And most consumers don’t know what to look for.

    Being a certified green cleaning company gives assurance to customers that they can put trust into a company to ensure they are doing everything they can to provide a safe environment without toxic chemicals.  Furthermore, they don’t have to worry about doing the research or understanding chemicals.  They’ll just have peace of mind knowing that the air they breath is clean, fresh, and healthy.
