Our Absolute Commitment to the Environment
As conversations about environmental concerns spread across the business landscape, many companies are assessing how their operations can be adjusted.
While it might seem inconsequential, the cleaning products used by your commercial cleaning services for your office or workspaces are a great place to start.
Traditional cleaning products often contain harsh chemicals that harm ecosystems, pollute water sources, and contribute to air quality issues.
This blog explores the importance of sustainable practices and how businesses can minimise their environmental footprint. By switching to eco-friendly products, you can contribute to a cleaner, greener future.
How are traditional cleaning products harmful to the environment?
Conventional cleaning products are widely used for commercial cleaning services. Here are some of the issues with these products:
Chemical pollution
Many cleaning agents contain toxic and harmful chemicals such as chlorine, phosphate and ammonia, which can contaminate water supplies and disrupt aquatic ecosystems. When these chemicals are washed down the drain, they often end up in rivers, lakes and seas, causing long-term damage to marine life.
Air quality
Many cleaning products contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These compounds contribute to indoor and outdoor air pollution, which can lead to respiratory issues such as headaches and other health problems for both humans and animals.
Health risks
Harsh cleaning agents don’t just cause harm to the environment, they can also be dangerous for us and the professionals using them. Exposure to toxic chemicals commonly causes skin irritation, allergies, and respiratory problems, especially when protective clothing such as gloves and disposable aprons are not worn.
While specialist cleaning processes such as kitchen deep cleaning and industrial cleaning often involve powerful cleaning agents, there are green alternatives that can be used to minimise environmental impact.
What are the benefits of switching to green cleaning products?
Aside from the positive impact on the environment, green products also offer various business benefits:
Lower carbon footprint
Many green cleaning products are manufactured using sustainable practices and renewable resources, reducing their environmental impact.
Reduced plastic waste
Green cleaning brands often focus on eco-friendly packaging, using recycled materials and offering refillable containers to help reduce plastic waste.
Potential cost savings
While some green products may have a higher upfront cost, they can also be more cost-effective in the long run due to the concentrated formulas and multipurpose uses.
Effective cleaning
Green cleaning products are formulated to be just as effective as conventional cleaners, providing high-quality cleaning results without harmful side effects.
Support ethical brands
Many eco-friendly cleaning product companies also prioritise fair trade practices, cruelty-free testing and socially responsible sourcing.
Improved business perception
People are becoming increasingly aware of how their decisions affect the environment, meaning they prefer to take their business and custom to companies willing to go the extra mile for sustainable practices.
Sourcing eco-friendly cleaning services can demonstrate your commitment to sustainability, boost your company image, and attract clients to your enterprise.
Absolute Cleaning’s eco-friendly approach
At Absolute Cleaning [link], we’re committed to making continuous positive changes to ensure our cleaning processes cause less negative impact on the environment. We incorporate eco-friendly cleaning products from Jangro’s Ntrl range.
Here’s how our sustainable approach benefits both the environment and our clients:
Non-toxic formulas
The most significant benefit of the Ntrl range is that it is formulated using raw, natural ingredients from plant-based extracts and is free from chemicals that are harmful to human health and the environment. The products are also vegan-friendly and have not been tested on animals.
Effective deep cleaning
While green cleaning products are manufactured using natural, plant-based ingredients, this does not make them any less effective than harsh traditional cleaning agents. The Ntrl range is designed to minimise impact on the environment while providing a deeper cleaning action:
- Reaching areas traditional methods can’t
- No damage or dulling of surfaces
- Neutralising odours at the source
- A highly effective, non-toxic solution
- Perfect for a variety of environments
- Innovative, vegan formulations
Some cleaning solutions from the Ntrl range also contain probiotics, which continue to work after the initial cleaning to ensure long-lasting effects.
Sustainable packaging
Unlike traditional cleaning solutions that often come packaged in single-use plastic, the bottles and containers used in Jangro’s Ntrl range are produced from 100% Post-Consumer Recycled Plastic (PCR). This sustainable packaging solution significantly reduces plastic waste and carbon dioxide emissions by 85% compared to virgin plastic.
Made in the UK
The Ntrl range is manufactured in the UK, ensuring that we support local industry and reduce transportation pollution during shipping. The range is also manufactured to ISO9001 standards, has an ISO14001 environmental certificate, and is accredited to Carbon PAS2060 for carbon neutrality.
