Five billion pounds of chemicals are used annually for institutional cleaning. The good news is that the risk of injury from chemicals and environmental damage can be dramatically reduced by replacing the most dangerous cleaning products with safer ones.
- Opt for solutions that are non-toxic, non-VOC (volatile organic compound), water-based, biodegradable, phosphate-, chlorine- and ammonia-free and those with ingredients derived from renewable resources, not petroleum.
- Buy in concentrate and bulk so that shipping and packaging waste is reduced.

We all want to be healthier. One way to do so is by switching toxic “cleaning” agents for eco-friendly (and human friendly Twin Cities janitorial services) products. They will do the same job without the chemicals that can get you sick. Thanks!
