What is Green Cleaning?

Eco-friendly office cleaning refers to the use of cleaning methods and procedures designed to preserve human health and the environment. It typically involves the use of green chemicals, equipment and processes.

What Products are Used for Eco-friendly Cleaning?

Many mainstream cleaning products contain toxic chemicals that are bioaccumulative, leaving traces that build up in the bodies of those who come in contact with freshly-cleaned offices each day. Green cleaning relies on low-toxicity chemicals, natural cleaners, products with organic ingredients, as well as biodegradable materials.

At Rapid Clean, we use products such as the Triple 8 Dosing System, which is the best on the market for the reduction of single-use plastics, coming in a highly concentrated formula. 

What are the Benefits of Green Office Cleaning?

Saves Money

Many businesses think that going green means taking a more expensive option, but in reality, green cleaning is far more cost-effective than people realise. Today, sustainable cleaning products cost roughly the same as normal ones, with some organic products even costing less. Plus, green practices decrease water and energy expenses and increase recycling, all of which add up to create effective cost savings for businesses. 

Improves Indoor Air Quality

Research has found that asthma-related symptoms and conditions are often linked to chemical cleaning products. By using more eco-friendly products, the air quality in your office will be improved, and therefore improve well-being and health of staff.

Reduces the Spread of Germs

Office workers regularly come into contact with surfaces, handles, keyboards, phone receivers and more, so surfaces are regularly exposed to germs. Using safe, eco-friendly, chemical-free products on high-contact surfaces can reduce the spread of germs around the office.

At Rapid Clean, we recognise the importance of looking after the environment, introducing various improvements over the years as part of our ongoing commitment. We are ISO 14001 certified, which is the International Standard for Environmental Management System and we strive to make our systems and practices as sustainable as possible.

We are currently trialling eco-friendly vacuum cleaners as well as ethically-sourced, sustainably-sound, products, with environmentally-responsible packaging. Take a look at our commitment to the environment.
