Green Clean
Our Green Clean Program
The cleaning industry is enormous, consuming billions of pounds of cleaning chemicals and janitorial paper supplies annually. This has a tremendous impact on our air, water, soil, and other resources. Hundreds of millions of pounds of equipment is dumped into landfills every year. That's why, through our Green Cleaning program, TJS is committed to help preserve our natural resources for future generations. Our Green Clean program incorporates certified products and equipment into the cleaning process, but is distinguished by the training and service support you would expect from a leader in green cleaning. We are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality, environmentally responsible service solutions.
Green cleaning benefits
As stewards of the earth we inhabit for a short time, it is our responsibility to pass on to our descendants a planet that is safe and in balance. We must reduce the enormous amount of natural resources we waste. We must do all we can to not harm the environmental balance of the earth. A simple, but significant step begins when we use chemicals and processes that are sensitive to this goal.
Environmentally friendly cleaning creates healthier surroundings - Green cleaning helps improve indoor air quality and reduce health problems that traditional products and processes can cause. Building occupants experience fewer incidences of irritations or sensitivities to the indoor environment.
Healthier environments increase productivity - Healthier employees mean happier employees. Statistics show increased worker satisfaction, improved morale, reduced absenteeism and increased productivity and efficiency can occur when a facility is maintained using green cleaning processes and chemicals. Employees and customers appreciate knowing that green practices are used in the building they occupy. A green cleaning program helps you market your business as a socially conscious one.
Green programs help the earth - Implementing a green program can reduce the negative effect your cleaning and sanitary operations have on the environment. Using environmentally friendly equipment and products in the right manner helps decrease air pollution, water pollution, ozone depletion and global climate change. Green practices also promote recycling, reducing the use of raw materials and minimize toxic products requiring disposal.
