AN IN TR O D UCTIO N TO GREEN CLEANING
Did you know that the EPA estimates that indoor air
pollution is one of the top 5 environmental risks to the
public and that the air inside a facility may be more than
twice as polluted as the outdoor air?
The patients in your facility may have compromised
immune systems and be even more vulnerable to
environmental issues than the general public. But,
hospitals operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week
and your ability to isolate patients and staff from the
environmental health impacts of cleaning is virtually
impossible.
The need for a Green Cleaning program is real and
is a challenge facing health care administrators and
maintenance professionals across the country. Green
Cleaning can be simply defined as cleaning to protect
health without harming the environment. You need
vacuums that remove contaminants without releasing
fine particulates back into the air. At the same time, you
need the flexibility to clean around occupants with
minimal disruption.
ProTeam's vacuums are lightweight, powerful, and less
disruptive than typical vacuums. They are comfortable
to wear, easy to use, and with ProTeam's exclusive Four
