Green Cleaning
|
We hear the term a lot, but what exactly is green cleaning?
Green cleaning is the use of cleaning products, machines, or methods that are more environementally friendly. To be considered green, cleaning products must substantially reduce waste or environmental foot print compared with traditional methods. Green cleaning products include:
- Microfibre - reusable cloths that replace wasteful paper towels that require culling of trees and waste disposal;
- Green Cleaning Agents - natural agents like steam or citrus detergent that replace hazardous chemicals like bleach or caustics.
- Low Water Usage - cleaning machines like steam vapour cleaners and floor scrubbers that replace high pressure washers.
Below is a list of Duplex products that can help you achieve greener cleaning at home or work. Further below is an interesting link to a case study on REDHS, a Duplex customer, who successfully use Duplex steamers and microfibre products to aid green cleaning efforts.

To become green in our cleaning efforts we need to use more environmentally friendly cleaning products. This includes the use of cleaning agents that are not hazardous or poisonous, cleaning products that are reusable, products that are recyclable, machines that do not waste water, and machines that do not require excessive chemicals. If everybody takes these small steps we can ensure both our environment and furture generations of children will enjoy a better life.
Green Cleaning - Case Study
Rochester & Elmore District Health Services (REDHS)
"We were not aware of the amount of water and chemical we were using and the damage we were inflicting on the environment... We then reviewed alternative ways of cleaning and found that by using steam machines we would not require chemicals...
Steam cleaners were then trailed for one month, the results were impressive, cleaning standards were well exceeded, along with the numerous applications the machine could be used for. We have since purchased five Duplex steam cleaning machines and have heavily reduced our water use and chemical use by 80%."
