Green Cleaning

What is green cleaning?

Sometimes referred to as eco-friendly or eco cleaning, green cleaning is a blanket term pertaining to the use of products that don’t emit chemicals when used. This makes green cleaning better for people, pets and the planet. 

What type of products are used for green cleaning?  

It’s important to realize that just because a cleaning product is labeled as environmentally friendly, it doesn’t mean that it qualifies as a green product. Not all green cleaning products are natural, but they can include: vinegar, lemons, baking soda, castile soap

Green cleaning products generally have the following traits:

  • No phosphates

  • No artificial colors or fragrances

  • No chlorine or ammonia

  • Recyclable or biodegradable packaging

  • Organically grown ingredients 

Is green cleaning better than regular cleaning?

Compared to standard cleaning products, green cleaning products are typically safer to use, non-toxic and are biodegradable.
