Having an eco-friendly office is important in a world that is increasingly aware of just how damaging we humans can be. But we must also ensure that offices are clean and sanitary. It is perfectly possible to have an environmentally sensitive office that is fully compliant with health and safety regulations. We are proud to provide our clients with eco-friendly office cleaning that is extremely thorough, whilst ensuring that the environment is not negatively impacted. Our team uses a selection of commercial eco-friendly cleaning products that will provide excellent results. Here are some points to bear in mind:
Make an Announcement!
Staff, clients, and suppliers all share your concern for the environment and will be interested to learn that you have eco-friendly policies. Ensure that everyone in your business is on the same page by announcing your intentions to ‘go green’ in the office. This will signal to everyone who is connected to your business that you are open to making positive changes.
Waste Not Want Not
Installing recycling bins and encouraging employees to get into the habit of separating out paper, cardboard, cans, and glass is a simple and easy way to take a big step towards sustainability. Being able to recycle the above materials can represent a 95% reduction in production costs and materials. Even niche items like printer cartridges and Tetrapak cartons can be recycled. The materials used to make them can be reused, keeping them out of landfills and rubbish dumps.
Dispose of the Disposables
Encourage your workforce to use reusable mugs rather than sipping from disposable cups when in the office. If they’re heading out for their caffeine hit, some coffee shops offer a discount for using your own reusable cup too.
Boost the Air Quality
One thing to consider is maintaining air quality within your offices. Clean air is vital for good health and sanitary conditions. Make sure that air circulates freely. We recommend working with a professional cleaner to achieve the best results.
Our team of eco-friendly office cleaners will provide your employees with the most suitable working environment. We will ensure that every possible surface and feature is properly cleaned and dusted. This prevents fans and air conditioning units from circulating dust around the room.
We pay attention to often neglected areas including skirting boards, the tops of door jambs, and even air vents and fan blades.
Steam It!
Switching to steam cleaning is an excellent way to avoid using harsh and harmful chemicals while enjoying eco-friendly office cleaning. Although steam is just water, when it’s heated to a high temperature it is lethal to germs and viruses. It is also easily able to soften and remove even ground-in dirt and grime. The steam is gentle on most surfaces, neither staining nor damaging them.
Commercial eco-friendly cleaning products
Replace harsh cleaning chemicals that can strip varnish and stain wood with commercial eco-friendly cleaning products. They are just as effective, as long as they are used appropriately, with contact times and methods of use strictly adhered to.
