Why Clean Green?
Using Green products and green cleaning methods provide better indoor air quality, and greatly reduce the use of raw materials and toxic products that are disposed into our waterways and landfills. Green cleaning also greatly decreases air and water pollution.
Green cleaning products and methods also reduce potential allergens. Conventional cleaning products have been linked to childhood wheezing, a symptom of asthma in children. Asthma affects over 6 million children in the U.S., a rate of 97 per 1000 (American Lung Association, 2007). Asthma triggers include most traditional cleaning products, tobacco smoke, animal dander, paint fumes and other odors, dust mites, molds, and pollens. Green cleaning greatly reduces many of these respiratory triggers in households and the workplace.
Executive Green Clean does not use chemical irritants such as bleach, aerosols, air fresheners, or ammonia that can irritate the bronchial passageways of children, adults and pets. Green cleaning products are safe to use on all surfaces with ingredients that are safe to use in every environment, providing effective cleaning results many times exceeding results from traditional toxic chemical solutions.
Commercial green cleaning increases workplace safety, health, productivity, and return on investment of facilities. The cleaning solutions used by Executive Green Clean are Green Seal certified and are equally effective as cleaning agents as tradition cleaning solutions. Green cleaning practices do not expose workers to fluorocarbons that decrease indoor air quality or harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Green cleaning can help reduce the costs to building management including costs associated with sick leave, health care, and productivity loss. Executive Green Clean uses energy-efficient equipment and focuses on preventative maintenance to reduce expenses.
An advantage to commercial green cleaning is the leading enhancer to your company's reputation - being socially conscious is a desirable business ethic, now more than ever. Green cleaning with Executive Green Clean can earn up to 40% of LEED credits needed to be LEED certified. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a series of building ratings developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) to provide a standard for what constitutes a "green building" or "high performance" building. There is an effort underway to develop LEED credits for homes.
