Why Our Cleaners Only Use Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products

eco-friendly cleaning products

We firmly believe that cleaning should not harm the environment. That’s why we only use eco-friendly cleaning products to clean our clients’ homes and businesses.

Eco-Friendly vs. Standard Cleaning Products

Eco-friendly cleaning products are formulated with ingredients - such as baking soda, vinegar, citrus extracts, essential oils and plant-based surfactants - that have a minimal negative impact on the environment. These products are designed to reduce pollution, conserve resources, and minimise harm to ecosystems.

By way of contrast, standard off-the-shelf cleaning products often contain chemicals - such as chlorine bleach, ammonia and phosphates - that can be harmful to the environment and the health of the humans and animals that live in the affected space. In sufficient quantities, these chemicals can pollute water sources, contribute to air pollution, and damage ecosystems.

Benefits of Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products

Eco-friendly cleaning products confer considerable benefits for the environment, for health and for the home.

For the Environment

  • Reduced pollution: Where these products contain no harmful chemicals, releasing them into the environment poses no contamination risk to water sources.
  • Preservation of ecosystems: For the same reason, eco-friendly cleaning products have minimal effect on local ecosystems and wildlife populations.
  • Sustainable practices: Our products align with Living Clean’s other sustainable practices, reducing the demand for non-renewable resources through the choices we make as a business.

For Health

  • Reduced exposure to toxins: Traditional cleaning products can contain harmful chemicals that can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. The products we use swap these chemicals for alternatives that are just as good at grimebusting.
  • Improved indoor air quality: Using non-toxic cleaning products can help create a healthier indoor environment, reducing the risk of allergies and respiratory issues.
  • Long-term health benefits: Some long term health benefits can accrue from avoiding regular exposure to harmful chemicals.

For Your Home

  • Safety for pets and children: Environmentally friendly cleaners are often safer for pets and children, as they are less likely to cause harm if accidentally ingested or inhaled.
  • Reduced damage to surfaces: Many traditional cleaning products can damage surfaces over time. As a rule, environmentally friendly cleaning products are generally gentler on surfaces.
  • Improved overall cleanliness: While environmentally friendly cleaners may not be as harsh as some traditional products, they are still just as effective at removing dirt.
