<p>One of the most important elements in a hospital is keeping it in the most top-notch clean and sanitary condition possible. Holding to the highest standards of cleanliness is essential for the patients&#8217; health, safety and wellbeing. It also aids greatly to the hospital staff&#8217;s ability to do their job well, without any undue concerns for their own health. Selecting superior hospital cleaning supplies is the first step to keep the hospital operating in the best possible manner, and to provide the most healthful environment for both patients and staff alike. You can take that step by choosing Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies.</p>
<p>There are a number of reasons why your hospital cleaning supplies should include Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; cleaning products. First and foremost, your hospital needs a good germ-killing agent, and Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; will provide this essential characteristic. All parts of the rooms and floors in your hospital must be free of germs and allergens to reduce the risks of spreading contagious illnesses amongst patients, and to reduce the risk of such illnesses being contracted by the hospital staff, so it is wise to select hospital cleaning supplies that will do this the best.</p>
<p>Basic cleanliness is also important in your hospital. Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies are great for this, too. From general cleaning to shoe marks on hallway floors to removing soap residue on the sinks and tile in the bathrooms, Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; products will do a fine, thorough job on all of these tasks. In addition to their effectiveness, Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies are time-saving cleaning items, leaving no product residue which would require extra wiping and rinsing. When you use Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; products, hospital cleaning does not have to be a time-consuming, tedious chore. They will do a great job, while being completely safe for all surfaces and fabrics. Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies&#8217; non-abrasive nature will never leave a scratch; and it leaves no offensive odors.</p>
<p>You will also appreciate Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; products&#8217; &#xE2;&#x80;&#x9C;green cleaning&#xE2;&#x80;&#x9D; nature. These hospital cleaning supplies were designed to be completely safe for the environment, as well as completely safe for those who clean with it. Just as you care about the health of your patients, Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; products are specially designed to care for the environment. Since Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies are free of any hazardous chemicals, they have the approval of both OSHA and the EPA. Additionally, certified readily biodegradable, Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; products are easily disposable.</p>
<p>Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies are also a good health-conscious choice for you. Even while performing the most detailed cleaning tasks, you will not be bothered by harmful fumes, or irritants to your skin and eyes. Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; hospital cleaning supplies are made of non-toxic, non-caustic materials, unlike many other cleaning supplies that are made from dangerous chemicals which have the potential to cause problems to your own health or that of patients or visitors.</p>
<p>Selecting the very best hospital cleaning supplies depends upon holding the highest standards of both cleanliness and safety. When you opt to use Eco-Green &#xC2;&#xAE; for your hospital cleaning needs, those high standards will be well in place!</p>
<p>We encourage you to review and compare our line of products, and urge you to call us and ask to speak with a Product Specialist if you have any questions or need guidance. Providing you with the best product for your application is our goal!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It may sound like semantics, but there is a difference between Cleaning Green and Green Cleaning.  The first indicates that the janitorial services is using Green products.  The second indicates that they are using a Green practice as well as Green Products.  In the belief that Green cleaning is more than sliding in a line of Green products, there is the obvious need to understand that products do not mean the workforce is following Green procedures.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Green products are an important aspect of the the process, but Green cleaning is defined as a system of cleaning that promotes healthy surroundings for building occupants, and is also less detrimental to the environment.  It is a concern for the impact of the cleaning process on the facility.  Remember, defining the Green Janitor means (1) The Immediate Impact of what is done, and (2) the Residual Impact of what is done.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.green-practices.com">The Green Practices Initiative</a> raises questions that some people do not want raised.  The education of the workforce is a cost and a time commitment that they wish to avoid.  It is easier to resupply the chemicals used and call that &#8220;Cleaning Green&#8221; than to train the workforce in &#8220;Green Cleaning&#8221; tactics.  There is a difference though it may be of small concern to some.  Do you want a mechanic who know how to replace parts until the car is fixed, or do you want a technician who diagnoses the problem before tearing things apart?   A little training can make a big difference.  We are committing more an more duties for the Green mandates coming down.  Why aren&#8217;t we training them to do the job as professionals (Technicians) instead of task-oriented broom pushers.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>A HEPA vacuum is a good choice for the dust recycled in the air by most vacuums, but it is an extra expense and they suffer from a loss in suction when they are not maintained.  Adding a sweeping compound to minimize dust is not just a good idea.  It too adds to the overall building health.  Are the workers aware of health hazards of biohazard waste, mold that appears in the building, or use of pesticides?  Are feather dusters better than microfiber clothes?  Is the humidity a factor in the health of a building?  There are many unresolved issues that the workforce needs to understand if they are going to fulfill the new mandates that are coming down in the next year?</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="www.greencleannews.com"><b>Green Practices</b></a> means that we need to do more than trade in the old spray bottle for a new one containing a mystery liquid that is supposed to be Green.  It means that the person doing the work understand why something is Green or why it isn&#8217;t.  Notice that the latest MRSA scare drove the schools and offices affected into a real panic in sanitizing.  They broke ranks from Green products to bring in the &#8220;Good Stuff&#8221; that was not Green at all.  Yet, had they been advised about the best disinfectant products and procedures, they would have been able to better sanitize their facilities and keep to the Green Program they have promised to follow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Maid Brigade&#8217;s Green Clean Certified&#xE2;&#x84;&#xA2; system uses cleaning solutions certified by Green Seal, Inc. Its equipment and processes follow many Green Seal standards for cleaning services. In addition, each franchisee must receive certification from Maid Brigade after being trained to use the green cleaning system.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Maid Brigade uses cleaning solutions that are Green Seal Certified.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Green Seal is a non-profit organization devoted to environmental standard setting, product certification and public education. Green Seal offers certification to all products covered by its Standards. Manufacturers may submit their products for evaluation by Green Seal. Those which comply with Green Seal&#8217;s requirements may be authorized to use the Green Seal Certification Mark on products and in product advertising. Manufacturers authorized to use the Green Seal Certification Mark on their product are subject to an ongoing program of testing, inspection and enforcement. <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://portland.maidbrigade.com/"><b>The green cleaning solutions</b></a> used by Maid Brigade are manufactured by companies, including Betco&#xC2;&#xAE;, and carry the official Green Seal. In the advance of an established government or third party green cleaning standard for the residential cleaning industry, Maid Brigade has patterned its system on Green Seal&#8217;s standard for the commercial cleaning industry wherever applicable. For additional information on Green Seal.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>The vacuums used by Maid Brigade are certified through the Green Label Program.<br /><a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://portland.maidbrigade.com/"><b>Maid Brigade</b></a> uses the ProTeam&#xC2;&#xAE; Four Level Filtration backpack, canister vacuum cleaner. This vacuum is certified through the Carpet &amp; Rug Institute&#8217;s Green Label Program for meeting stringent standards for soil removal, dust containment and carpet appearance retention. It also removes 99.9 percent of particles measuring one micron and larger, including dust mites, mold, pet dander and pollen, eliminating many allergens and irritants that may trigger asthma symptoms. Also, ProTeam has partnered with the American Lung Association to increase awareness of the importance of clean indoor air.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Maid Brigade uses allergy-free and anti-bacterial cloths and mops.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Maid Brigade&#8217;s exclusive Green Clean Certified system uses microfiber cloths that are made from a scientific weave of polyester and polyamide to provide a lint-free, multi-surface cleaning. These allergy-free and anti-bacterial cloths act as millions of scrub brushes to remove germs, grease,lime and other dirt without damaging the surface being cleaned. Because they last longer than cotton cloths or paper products, microfiber cloths are more eco-friendly than their traditional counterparts.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>The microfiber technology is also used in Maid Brigade&#8217;s floor mops. Using the same technology as the cleaning cloths, the microfiber pads ensure a clean surface, removing germs, dirt and grime. The dry mop is used to remove dust and dry dirt, while the wet mop removes scuffs or marks from floors.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Franchisees and employees also undergo a Maid Brigade green certification process.<br />&#xD;</p>
<p>Before Maid Brigade franchisees can implement the Green Clean Certified system, they must complete extensive training on how to use the solutions, microfiber products and the cleaning process. They must complete three separate training modules on Green Cleaning and then pass tests on this material. Once that is completed, they train their cleaning teams with classroom sessions and practical sessions in customers&#8217; homes. The teams must also pass tests and their in-home training cleanings are evaluated by franchise management to ensure proper implementation. Once all parts of the training have been passed, the franchisees receive their Maid Brigade certification and can begin using the Green Clean Certified system.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>
<p>If cleaning is your business, you know that you need quality cleaning service supplies in order to do the best job possible. You also know that doing a good job on a consistent basis is the main way of ensuring the productivity of your business. Satisfied customers are repeat customers; and satisfied customers are also likely to spread the word and generate even more business for you. When you add all of these factors together, you see why selecting top-notch cleaning service supplies is essential for your business.</p>
<p>Although there are a number of different types of cleaning service supplies that will be a great help for your business, one which you should consider first and foremost is Eco-Green &#xAE;. Eco-Green &#xAE; is the best cleaning asset your cleaning service can have, as it provides many benefits with no drawbacks.</p>
<p>You may wonder what could possibly be so great about green cleaning service supplies. There are a number of reasons why Eco-Green &#xAE; products are all that they claim to be and more. First, Eco-Green &#xAE; cleaning service supplies are the most thorough cleaning agents that money can buy. These products will do an amazing job on every cleaning task that you may have. They will get rid of all kinds of dirt, soil, grease; even chewing gum is no match for the cleaning power of Eco-Green &#xAE; chewing gum cleaning service supplies! But while this in itself is certainly a good reason to purchase Eco-Green &#xAE; products, their cleaning abilities do not stop there. Eco-Green &#xAE; products will cut your cleaning time considerably; because in addition to being thorough, these cleaning service supplies clean without leaving any soapy residue or messes for you to clean up afterwards.</p>
<p>Second, Eco-Green &#xAE; products have numerous safety factors which make it clear that these are first-rate cleaning service supplies. One may assume that products designed to work so well on heavy-duty cleaning chores must be made of dangerous substances and toxins; however, Eco-Green &#xAE; products are derived entirely from all-natural substances.</p>
<p>The first element of Eco-Green &#xAE; products&#8217; safety is that they will not damage any surface in any way while still cleaning thoroughly. Eco-Green &#xAE; cleaning service supplies are non-toxic, non-caustic, and non-abrasive; making them equally suitable for nearly every task imaginable, from bathroom tile to stoves. Some of our formulas are even safe for fabric.</p>
<p>The next safety factor is that of Eco-Green &#xAE; cleaning service supplies&#8217; formula being free of any hazardous chemicals, making them completely safe for users. In your cleaning service, you can perform cleaning tasks all day, yet have no ill effects from using Eco-Green &#xAE;&#x2019;s safe formula. Its specially designed solution will not be bothersome to your skin or your eyes. There are no harmful fumes in Eco-Green &#xAE;. And, if there are spills, they will not damage your clothing.</p>
<p>Most importantly, as environmentally-friendly, &#x201C;green cleaning&#x201D; cleaning service supplies, Eco-Green &#xAE; products present no threat to the natural environment. Meeting the standards of both the EPA and OSHA, Eco-Green &#xAE; products are safe for the land, air, and waterways, and will not damage the ozone. Being certified readily biodegradable, Eco-Green &#xAE; products can be easily disposed of without concern of risk to the environment.</p>
<p>Eco-Green &#xAE; is the first product you should put on your list of cleaning service supplies!</p>
<p>We encourage you to review and compare our line of products, and urge you to call us and ask to speak with a Product Specialist if you have any questions or need guidance. Providing you with the best product for your application is our goal!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Green cleaning is effective cleaning which protects health without harming the environment. Green cleaning is about maintaining and improving cleanliness and supporting infection control while protecting workers and the environment from the risks posed by cleaning materials and processes.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Green cleaning products are available, effective, and affordable. Green cleaning materials also are no more expensive than the more mainstream variety household chemicals. Green cleaning doesn&#8217;t just mean reducing impact on the environment, it focus&#x2019;s on improving air quality because contaminants are typically at least two to five times worse indoors than outdoors.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Green cleaning protects your family from unseen dangers in your home such as harmful fumes. Whether you clean your office yourself or use a contracted cleaning service, switching to green cleaning products can help your business decrease its environmental impact and create a healthier workspace. Green cleaning is a total approach that not only uses safer cleaning solutions but also equipment and procedures that do not endanger you, your family or your pets.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Poor quality indoor air can produce health effects ranging from headaches and dry eyes to nausea, dizziness, and fatigue. Whatever choices you make about your cleaning supplies, there is a huge variety of environmentally friendly choices for those interested in green cleaning. Health care facilities throughout the country have successfully implemented green cleaning programs while maintaining the efficacy of their infection control efforts. Has your facility successfully implemented a green cleaning program?</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Green cleaning can reduce employee sick days and help with employee morale and retention. Using green cleaning products in homes, childcare centers, houses of worship and schools are a simple, effective step to reducing unnecessary toxic exposures to growing children. Everyone can make the switch to green cleaning. Within the past five years, green cleaning supplies also have become more effective, less expensive, and more readily available. Through product innovation and an understanding of our customers&#8217; green cleaning efforts, we have developed the most complete line of green floor cleaning equipment in the industry.</p>

<p>It cannot be emphasized enough that green cleaning is good for the environment, our health, our pets health, and may increase our lifespan. Our bodies simply cannot keep inhaling toxic chemicals on a regular basis without it affecting our hearts, lungs and skin. These products may even cause cancer. There are some of us of has been putting on the thick rubber gloves and covering our mouths just so we could clean our ovens with chemical filled cans of foam? Was it really worth the risk to our health? And sadly, it wasn&#8217;t even really needed, as baking soda and lemon juice will do the job perfectly and leave a fresh scent too.</p>
<p>All of us has a responsibility to do their share in creating a clean earth for themselves and future generations. And with simple green cleaning steps to a sparkling home, everyone can. On the Internet there are many ways to get eco friendly products and even some recipes for those who prefer to make their own. Coconut water is a great cleaner, as is lemon juice or vinegar. </p>
<p>When you think of it to clean your house, all you really need is some baking soda and vinegar. For instance, a small amount vinegar rubbed onto glass with a piece of crumpled newsprint will give you a clean shine on window panes. No glass-specific cleanser needed.</p>
<p>When purchasing for cleaners which boast they are cleaning green products, don&#8217;t always believe that to be true unless there is an eco friendly seal on the container. One such product with rave reviews is the eco friendly cleaning cloth. This cloth is thick, toxin free, and picks up dirt, grime and even grease quite easily with just a swipe. You will not have to scrub, nor break a sweat with this microfiber powerhouse. More great news is the cloths last a long time so they are affordable too. We may just increase our lifespans, finally end cancer and a host of other chronic diseases forever.</p>
