As we continue to become more environmentally conscious as a society, many businesses are seeking ways to lower their negative impact on the natural world. Green janitorial services have become increasingly popular, but there are a lot of misconceptions about their effectiveness and overall benefits.
Here at Cleaning Maxx, we want to help clear the air about the green janitorial services we offer our customers. Below, you’ll find a few of the more prevalent myths we’ve encountered and the facts you actually need to know.
Myth: The products used in green janitorial services are not as effective as conventional products.
Fact: Many green products are just as effective as conventional ones, with the added benefit that you can use them more frequently without risking your health. This makes them ideal for high-traffic areas that need regular cleaning, since you can have more frequent cleanings without the risk of harmful chemical exposure.
Myth: Green janitorial services cost more.
Fact: While there may be a slightly higher upfront cost, using green janitorial services can actually save you money by cutting down on the wear and tear of your building. Green products are generally less harsh than conventional ones, which means they won’t wear down surfaces as quickly, even with frequent applications, saving you money in the long run on repairs and replacements.
Myth: The products used in green janitorial services are not regulated.
Fact: There are strict regulations in place for products that want to achieve certain green certifications. For example, our products meet the requirements set forth by both the EPA and the CDC for safe, natural products.
