What is LEED-Based Cleaning and Why is it So Important?
LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. This badge of distinction is awarded to buildings that earn ‘points’ or credits towards becoming a green, eco-friendly, energy conscious and healthy commercial building. This includes implementing a mandatory green cleaning policy that requires the use of non-toxic chemicals, higher efficiency tools along with sustainable practices to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) for occupants, visitors and cleaning personnel.
Here are some of the many reasons why utilizing a LEED-based cleaning process is healthier and more efficient:
- Eliminates the use of harsh or toxic chemicals that can directly affect the health and well-being of cleaning personnel.
- Industry leading; providing the most technologically advanced products and highly innovative practices to the commercial cleaning industry.
- Scientifically proven to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) thereby creating a healthier, more enjoyable place to work and visit.
- The LEED name and certification is admired and respected in the commercial industry as a symbol of green, sustainable and innovation. Therefore, SparkleTeam’s LEED-based cleaning policy also symbolizes industry leading and best in class.
