Commercial
Cleaning Supplies – Better Than Homemade
 Unless
you are a chemist, your homemade cleaning supplies probably are
not as good as commercial cleaning supplies. Just because you
can pour some vinegar in a bucket and maybe throw in some baking
soda doesn’t mean it is a cleaning chemical. Sure it may clean a
few surfaces but to what degree?
Commercial cleaning supplies
are not something you can conjure up in the kitchen and expect
them to clean, disinfect and pass all EPA regulations. If you
are working in the cleaning industry say as a contract cleaning
company, you will want to know that your supplies are safe,
reliable, and will clean like they should.
Therefore
when selecting your commercial cleaning supplies you should take
into consideration these three key points to insure you will be
making the right decision.
First, are
they safe? Does the manufacture provide the appropriate
documentation such as MSDS (material safety data sheets) and
what are the risks to building occupants when using them? If you
feel your commercial cleaning supplies are too harsh or may be
causing undue health issues, then by all means contact the
manufacturer to determine if you are using them in the proper
manner.
Second,
compare your commercial cleaning supplies with like products
to determine which may be more environmentally friendly.
Protecting our precious environment should be on everyone’s mind
and the cleaning industry is doing its part by providing more
chemicals of a green variety. By moving in this direction you
too can do your part.
Finally, you
should consider the performance of the commercial cleaning
supplies that you choose to use in your cleaning business. Do
they perform their intended function of cleaning? If not, and
you have to use more of the chemicals to do the job, then two
things are working against you. Using more than necessary means
more chemicals are going down the drain which ultimately ends up
in our water ways. And lastly, if you are using more, then you
are throwing your hard earned money down the drain as well.
Follow these
three points and you will insure you are not only choosing but
are using the right commercial cleaning chemicals. |
