CLEANING & HYGIENE
products vary in cost, effectiveness, and their ability to protect people and the environment. However, when an FM business identifies a product that balances these values, it can reshape how the industry cares for people and customer sites.
For instance, certain biotech cleaning brands are 100% naturally derived. These products, made from natural ingredients, carry a lower hazard classification, reducing health and safety risks, protecting the immediate health of users, and safeguarding the long-term health of staff. Beyond health benefits, biotechnology aims to improve productivity through less labour-intensive cleaning processes, such as residual cleaning, biofilms, and odour degradation at the source. This not only helps staff achieve their daily cleaning objectives more efficiently but also allows them to manage their time and energy better, which in turn supports their mental health.
Not only this but by continuing to use traditional cleaning chemicals it can affect FM businesses to target and retain customers. With the growing zeitgeist around health and staff wellbeing, employers want to ensure that the businesses that support their business, like FM operators, will enhance their environment for their staff and customers, not add risks and wellness blockers. Being proactive in choosing the right products to work with not only will help your operations and staff retention but provides those FM businesses with a USP that they could showcase to potential clients.
By adopting these advanced cleaning solutions, FM businesses can ensure that from the start of the cleaning cycle, their staff are better protected, customers and their teams are better safeguarded, and the client’s business environment is healthier and more appealing.
Aligning health and success in FM The facilities management industry is at a pivotal point where the health and wellbeing of both employees and clients must be prioritised alongside commercial objectives. For FM businesses, understanding the risks associated with traditional cleaning chemicals and embracing more sustainable, health-conscious alternatives is not just a matter of compliance but a strategic advantage. By doing so, they can protect their most valuable assets—people—while also driving business success.
In an industry built on creating safe, healthy spaces, the tools and practices employed must align with this mission. As more research and data emerge, FM businesses have the opportunity to lead by example, demonstrating that it is possible to protect health, enhance productivity, and maintain strong customer relationships—all without compromise. The future of FM is one where innovation and care go hand in hand, ensuring that the spaces that they manage are not just clean, but truly safe and welcoming for everyone.
