The contract cleaning sector has played an important role in keeping facilities clean and healthy for decades. However, as one of the largest industries in the world, it also has a huge responsibility to ensure operations and practices are as sustainable and environmentally responsible as possible.

There are many ways your contract cleaning businesses can implement sustainability in your processes, such as minimising water usage, reducing waste, or cutting down on single-use plastics. But one of the most efficient ways to reduce the environmental impact of your cleaning processes is to invest in eco-friendly cleaning products.

So here are 4 eco-cleaning products that will revolutionise your cleaning contracts.

Triple 8 Dose Concentrated Chemical and Reusable Trigger Bottles

Compared to pre-diluted products which are usually 70% water, the Triple 8 Dose provides a high-concentrate solution that is significantly stronger. These concentrated chemicals are designed to be diluted by your staff when required, by filling reusable trigger bottles. This not only reduces the amount of unnecessary waste generated but also decreases emissions from distribution.

The high chemical concentration of Triple 8 Dose means that just one 1-litre bottle can refill a reusable spray bottle more than 100 times. This eliminates the need for single-use plastic bottles and promotes sustainable practices in your workplace. By choosing Triple 8 Dose, you can effectively reduce your environmental impact while also enjoying the benefits of a highly effective cleaning solution.

Ecofibre™ Reusable Cloths and Scouring Pads

Scourers and cloths are the most commonly used pieces of cleaning equipment according to a survey conducted by the British Cleaning Council. However, the frequent use of disposable scourers and cloths contributes to the increasing problem of single-use waste.

In the UK, it is estimated that over 7.7 billion disposable wipes, cloths, and sponges are used every year, with most of them ending up in landfills. This has a significant impact on the environment, leading to the depletion of natural resources.

The Ecofibre™ range of microfibre cloths and scouring pads can be reused multiple times, reducing the requirement for single-use, disposable products. In addition to this, these products are manufactured using recycled materials such as plant fibres and recycled plastics, further reducing their environmental impact.

Compared to regular plastic buckets, the ECO Kentucky buckets save, 4840 Grams of Plastic, 4583 KWH of Energy, 2831 KG of CO2, and 2057 L of Crude Oil in their production – revolutionising the sustainability of your cleaning processes.

Fenton ECO Z-fold Hand Towels

Paper hand towels have been a standard in public restrooms for many years, but their environmental impact has become a growing concern. While paper hand towels are convenient, they contribute to deforestation and generate significant waste, particularly in high-traffic areas. In addition, the production of paper hand towels requires significant amounts of energy, water, and other resources, further adding to their environmental footprint.

The Fenton ECO Z-fold Hand Towels are a sustainable solution to traditional paper towels. Made from 100% recycled paper, 100% biodegradable, and 100% plastic free; these paper towels help to slow deforestation rates and reduce waste while still providing a convenient hand-drying solution to facilities.
