Avmor's Quick Stuff Green Cleaning White Paper for Foodservice

According to the Restaurants & Institutions 2007 Tastes of America Study, about 45% of consumers surveyed say it is very important that their restaurants use environmentally preferable cleaning supplies.  Environmentally-preferable cleaning products are proven to be better for the environment and pose fewer health risks for employees and customers.  Avmor’s latest white paper offers the Foodservice industry insights into the benefits of green cleaning, and offers tips for the transition from harsh industrial cleaners to more environmentally-sound products:

o    Look for certified cleaning chemicals by reputable organizations such as the EcoLogo Program, Design for the Environment and Green Seal.  Remember to choose a green cleaning program where materials are biodegradable and meet the highest environmental standards for storage, transportation and disposal.      

o    Choose a green cleaning program that is easy to use and to train your employees.  Tools like concentrated ready-to-use products, and colour-coded products, save time and provide accuracy while cleaning effectively.

o    Conserve water and energy by avoiding single use items, using microfiber mops and rags that require less water, and upgrading to more efficient equipment like low-flow spray valves and Energy Star-rated equipment.  Introducing these types of efficiencies will also contribute to reducing costs associated with energy and water consumption.

A restaurant’s reputation and, ultimately, bottom line depends on cleanliness.  Choosing a green cleaning program that safeguards the health of your employees will help improve productivity, reduce liability and make customers happy.  Read Avmor’s Quick Stuff white paper to learn more.
