EARTH Friendly "Green" Cleaning

WHAT IS GREEN CLEANING?

Green Cleaning is not your standard commercial janitorial service. Many janitorial companies both large and small focus only on cleaning. Remember: Clean doesn't always mean healthy! Eastside Commerical Building Maintenance, Inc. promotes and fully supports a program using both Sustainable Earth products and cleaning processes which benefit people and the planet.

WHY SWITCH TO GREEN CLEANING?

More and More businesses are seeking to create a workplace that is free from harmful toxins, residues and odors. Each month, millions of tons of carcinogens, toxins, phosphates, flammable and ozone depleting chemicals are washed down drains. The use of Earth Friendly cleaning products and supplies is one way businesses and people can effectively reduce the negative impact that these chemicals have on each of us and our environment.

WHAT ARE FURTHER BENEFITS TO A GREEN CLEANING PROGRAM?

There are compelling reasons to having "green" offices or buildings. Studies show that Earth Friendly policies and procedures provide the following benefits:

Typically 80% of a company's costs are related to people. Implementing an Earth Friendly program will provide a more healthy work environment and foster wellbeing among your employees. This positively impacts workplace attendance, performance and productivity.

HOW CAN EASTSIDE COMMERCIAL BUILDING MAINTENANCE (ECBM) HELP?

For the best results, a comprehensive plan should include chemicals, paper, equipment, entry mats, mops, lamp and trash recycle and more. Just switching to eco-friendly chemicals alone is a good start, but can include much more.

EASTSIDE COMMERCIAL BUILDING MAINTENANCE has the products and experience to help you implement and Earth Friendly program. All of our Sustainable Earth products are consistent with certification programs such as LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) and meet or exceed the stringent sustainability certifications of GREEN SEAL and the U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY.

Our full line of products include cleaning chemicals that all "meet or exceed" Green Seal standards and at the same time deliver exceptional commercial cleaning. We also provide all consumable paper products, trash bags and can liners that you may need (all made with recycled post-consumer waste). ECBM also uses microfiber wipers and mopping equipment in our cleaning.

By implementing Earth Friendly processes and products, Owners, Organizations and Employers can demonstrate in a very tangible way their commitment to the health and well being of their people and our environment. This can create value in many ways including:
