What is Green Cleaning?
Green Cleaning is cleaning to protect health without harming the environment."
Why Green Clean?
A green cleaning program, in unison with a proactive facility maintenance program can provide numerous benefits, such as:
- Improved productivity of building occupants
- Improved health of the cleaning staff and building occupants, which may result in a reduction in sick days
- Reduced liability from worker safety issues
- Enhanced brand equity
- Meeting local, state, or federal purchase guidelines and earning points towards certifications such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
It is important to note that green cleaning products and processes should be as effective at cleaning as traditional products, and also be more cost effective when evaluated over the length of the maintenance cycle. Furthermore, a green cleaning program should be designed such that its procedures maximize cleaning results while protecting cleaning workers and facility occupants. RCP offers numerous products that will help you to be cleaner and greener.
How Does Rubbermaid Commercial Products Help Me Green Clean?
What products does RCP make that help me green clean?
Microfiber
Microfibers are very thin filaments blended from polyester and nylon that have been split to form thinner fibers–think 1/100th the thickness of a strand of your hair. These split fibers are better for cleaning because their increased surface area enables them to capture and retain more dirt, mold, and allergens. Furthermore, you can clean effectively while reducing water and chemical usage.
Vacuums
Floor and carpet care is an integral part of protecting the investments made in your facility. RCP premium quality vacuums are designed to perform in a multitude of applications. Further, our CRI certified vacuums ensure that you are removing optimal quantities of dirt, keeping that dirt and dust locked within the vacuum, and protecting the lifespan of your carpeted surfaces. Cleaning your floors with an RCP CRI green label certified vacuum will help you keep your facility and its occupants cleaner, greener, and healthier.

A safer workplace is a healthier, greener, workplace. Use Rubbermaid Commercial safety products to call attention to the wide variety of everyday hazards that threaten both employees and patrons. RCP offers comprehensive and innovative pedestrian safety solutions for your business.
