News THE ROLE OF STRATEGIC HYGIENE PARTNERS IN COMMERCIAL PROPERTY
Alongside product innovation, the company is also focused on reducing its operational impact. As a Planet Mark-certified business, Jangro meas- ures and reduces carbon emissions across its operations and supply chain, helping customers work with partners who share their sustainability commitments.
Circularity is another focus. Through Circular by Jangro, used plastic cleaning equipment, such as mop buckets and safety signs, along with paper hygiene products, can be collected and recycled before being remade into new products, supporting waste reduction across customer sites.
Jangro’s sustainability progress has also been recognised through its EcoVadis Silver rating, placing the company among the top 15% of busi- nesses assessed globally for environmental and ethical performance. Together, these initiatives help facilities managers maintain strong hygiene standards while demonstrating measurable progress towards their environmental and social goals.
Jo Gilliard, CEO of Jangro
Jo Gilliard, CEO of Jangro, the UK and Europe’s largest independent hygiene distributor, shares her perspective on how hygiene strat- egies support facilities management and the wider operation of commercial property.
Facilities managers and property teams juggle many responsibilities, from maintaining safe environments and meeting compliance requirements to supporting workplace wellbeing and sustainability targets. Behind the scenes, effective hygiene management underpins all of these priorities, ensuring buildings run safely and smoothly while protecting people and property.
In busy commercial settings, high-touch surfaces such as door handles, lift buttons, desks and communal kitchen areas are used constantly throughout the day. Without consistent routines in place, these shared touchpoints can quickly become areas where germs spread. That’s why more facilities managers treat hygiene as a strategic priority rather than a background task.
After many years in the industry, one thing that stands out is the value of working with hygiene partners who understand the operational pressures FM teams face. A reliable supplier does more than deliver products - they help facilities teams implement effective cleaning programmes, select the right solutions and respond quickly when needs change. With the right support and products in place, property managers can keep cleaning programmes effective, particularly in busy environments where consist- ency and reliability are critical.
Supporting sustainability goals in property management
For many commercial property owners, ESG targets are increasingly linked to the day-to-day operation of their buildings. Decisions about cleaning products, waste management and single-use materials all con- tribute to these goals.
Jangro works closely with facilities teams to provide responsibly sourced products that reduce environmental impact without compromising oper- ational performance. This includes Jangro’s ntrl range, a collection of plant-based cleaning products designed to deliver effective results while reducing reliance on harsh chemicals.

A strategic priority for modern buildings
When hygiene is properly planned and supported, buildings simply work better. Facilities teams can focus on running spaces smoothly, while the people who use them benefit from environments that feel clean, safe and well cared for.
Working with experienced hygiene partners can also help property teams stay ahead of changing regulations, evolving sustainability expectations and rising hygiene standards across commercial spaces.
