Green cleaning Brisbane
Green cleaning options for businesses that want to reduce the use of conventional cleaning chemicals without losing sight of what the site actually needs.
A practical approach to using fewer conventional chemicals
Green cleaning does not have to mean removing every cleaning chemical from a site.
For us, it means looking at where green cleaning products and reusable methods can be used effectively, rather than automatically reaching for conventional chemicals for every task.
CleanCo can use green cleaning products where required, and our existing cleaning approach includes washable microfibre cloths alongside products selected for the job being completed.
The goal is to make sensible choices based on the surface, level of cleaning required and the expectations of the business.
Green cleaning starts with the products and methods being used every day
A greener cleaning service is usually made up of a number of smaller decisions rather than one product or process.
Green cleaning products
Where suitable, green cleaning products can be incorporated into the regular cleaning specification. If your business has particular requirements around the products used on site, we can discuss these before the service begins.
Reusable microfibre cloths
Washable microfibre cloths can be reused across regular cleaning services rather than relying entirely on disposable cleaning materials.
The right product for the task
Not every surface or cleaning problem requires the same product. Rather than treating “green cleaning” as a blanket rule, the cleaning products can be selected based on what needs to be cleaned and the result required.
Regular cleaning rather than waiting for build-up
Keeping on top of a site through scheduled cleaning can also reduce the need to deal with heavy build-up later. The cleaning frequency is agreed during the quoting process based on the site and its requirements.
Sometimes a different cleaning product is required
We don’t think green cleaning should mean pretending every cleaning job can be handled in exactly the same way.
There may be situations where grime, mould or another form of build-up requires a different cleaning product.
That gives you a clearer understanding of what is being used on your premises rather than making an environmental claim that does not reflect the realities of the job.
Green cleaning can be built into your regular service
You do not need a completely separate cleaning contract to request green products.
They can form part of the regular cleaning service agreed for your workplace.
This can apply across commercial environments such as:
Offices
Green cleaning products can be incorporated into regular cleaning of office areas, kitchens, amenities and shared spaces where appropriate.
Childcare centres
If your centre has particular requirements around cleaning products, these can be discussed during the onsite quote before the service begins.
Medical centres
Green products can be considered for suitable areas within the agreed cleaning scope, while any specific cleaning requirements for the site need to be discussed separately.
Retail stores
Regular cleaning can incorporate green products across appropriate customer and staff areas.
Commercial and multi-site businesses
If you operate several sites, we can discuss whether the same green cleaning requirements can be incorporated across each location.
Tell us what matters to your business
There are different reasons a business might ask about green cleaning.
You may already have internal environmental policies. You may want to reduce the use of certain conventional products. Or you may simply want to understand what your cleaners are using on site.
That conversation can happen before we prepare the cleaning proposal.
During the onsite quote, we can discuss:
This gives us a clearer brief before the service begins instead of making assumptions about what “green cleaning” means for your business.
What does green cleaning mean?
For CleanCo, green cleaning means using green cleaning products and methods where appropriate rather than relying entirely on conventional cleaning chemicals. It does not necessarily mean that no cleaning chemicals will ever be used.
Can we request green cleaning products?
Yes. Green cleaning products can be used where required.
Do you only use green cleaning products?
No. Where another product is needed to deal with issues such as heavier grime or mould, CleanCo’s existing policy is to advise the client that a different chemical is intended to be used.
Do green cleaning products still work?
The suitability of a product depends on what is being cleaned and the result required. Rather than making a blanket claim that one type of product will work for every task, we select products based on the cleaning requirement.
Do you supply the products?
Yes. Our cleaning teams bring the chemicals and equipment required for the agreed service.
Can green cleaning be used in an office?
Yes. Green cleaning products can be incorporated into regular office cleaning where suitable.
Can you use green products in childcare centres?
Green cleaning products are available where required. Any specific product requirements for your childcare centre should be discussed during the onsite quote so they can be confirmed before the service begins.
Can we specify which products can be used on our site?
If your organisation has particular product requirements, raise them during the quoting process. We can then discuss what can be incorporated into the cleaning scope before the service begins.
Want to include green cleaning in your commercial cleaning service?
Tell us about your workplace and any requirements you have around the products used on site.
We’ll visit the premises, discuss the cleaning scope and work through how green cleaning products can be incorporated into the ongoing service.
