GREEN CLEANING
The original definition of green cleaning services is that the products used are made from plants and easily biodegradable after joining waste streams. There are now many types of cleaning products which are labelled as green, all of which are better for the environment in some way.
Green cleaning is, in essence, cleaning using products and procedures that are safe for the environment and do not emit any pollutants when used. Green cleaning is important not only for the environment and our planet, but for the health of the general public.
Arguably, if a product is green, it should meet all of the following criteria:
• Safe for water, ecosystems and fish
• Made from plants and not petroleum
• Biodegradable
• Better for the air quality (less smog)
• No carcinogens
• Produces less waste for landfills
• Better for energy conservation
• Sustainable ingredients
