Simple steps
Diversey gives us some advice on how to promote sustainable cleaning.
The cleaning industry has been through significant changes in the past 10 years, not least the accelerating trend towards sustainability. Diversey’s promotion of sustainable cleaning and environmental awareness goes back even further – its track record of achievement is demonstrated through its leadership with the Carbon Disclosure Project, assistance with the Alliance for Water Stewardship, the ASEAN Corporate Sustainability Award, and many other achievements.
“Ultra concentrates reduce the amount of product
wastage because, unlike old-fashioned ‘pour-and-
glug’, there is no guesswork involved in preparing solutions.”
A quick and simple way to improve the sustainability of almost any cleaning operation is through adoption of ultra-concentrates. Diversey offers these across a wide range of applications so that cleaning teams can quickly, easily and economically prepare solutions for equipment such as spray and toilet bottles, sinks, buckets or cleaning machines. The result is safe, simple and consistent high- performance cleaning while minimising wastage, packaging and chemical miles.
One of the main reasons ultra concentrates deliver reduced cost in use is that solutions are prepared at the optimum dilution for superior and consistent performance. This
Ultra-concentrates also use less packaging than comparable bulk or ready-to-use products. This is because water is added at the point of use rather than the place of manufacture. A business using 100 cases of six 750ml single-use spray bottles could reduce plastic waste by up to 125.6kg (99.6% reduction) and up to 26.6kg less cardboard (98.9% reduction) by switching to Diversey's ultra concentrates and re-usable bottles. Changes like these also reduce supply chain burdens because fewer cases need to be bought, transported and stored to support any given operation.
Transportation costs can be up to 20 times lower, while warehouse and on-site storage requirements are up to 22 times lower.
reduces the need for repeat cleaning which cuts wasted time, delivering an immediate productivity and efficiency gain.
Considering the product contributes far less to the overall cost than the person doing the cleaning, it makes sense to use products that maximise performance and productivity. Ultra concentrates also reduce the amount of product wastage because, unlike old-fashioned ‘pour-and-glug’, there is no guesswork involved in preparing solutions. Costs are reduced and predictable.
