Your business at its best.
- More productive employees
Estimate show 30% of U.S. workers suffer health problems caused by Sick Building Syndrome. Volatile organic compounds from carpeting and furniture, inadequate air circulation, poor lighting, mold buildup and disruptive temperature variances contribute to nausea, respiratory problems, skin rashes, lethargy, headaches and numerous other health concerns. Independent studies show that switching to green cleaning leads to reduced employee sick days and absences.
- Lower operating costs and financial incentives
Switching to green cleaning is an easy way to get your building and business on the path to saving money, being healthier and getting green-certified. There are several programs in place to reward your business and/or make certain it is as green as possible.
- Positive environmental impact
In addition to the immediate and direct human benefits of switching to green cleaning, the long-term relief for our environment is vast. In the United States, commercial buildings consume 17% of the water, 33% of the energy, 40% of the raw materials and 71% of the electricity. They produce, directly or indirectly, 40% of the landfill waste, 33% of the carbon dioxide, 49% of the sulfur dioxide and 10% of the particulate emissions.
