Whether you're just starting a Green Initiative or need a veteran partner, ESC is ready to serve your facility.

When it comes to facility maintenance "Going Green" begins with purchasing environmentally sensitive cleaning supplies, agents and equipment. Cleaning isn't just about the solutions and agents used. The materials you use must be disposed of or recycled and the tools may need to be different from traditional ones.

For example, precise dispenser systems ensure that cleaners aren't used too liberally. Housekeeping and janitorial services can often save as much as 50% of the volume of cleaning solutions, compounds and agents.

Green cleaning isn't just about being "natural." After all arsenic and uranium are natural but nobody wants to be anywhere near them. A certified green cleaner lessens its environmental impact as all stages of its life cycle including the packaging and methods of disposal.

Why Green Cleaning Matters

Traditional cleaning agents have been proven to impact human health negatively including associations with cancer, respiratory illness, reproductive disorders and skin irritation to name a few. They also include toxins that impact the general environment including drinking water upon disposal. In short, there are handling , storage and recycling issues that need to be managed. Green cleaning products solve many of these problems.
