And I think that "Hypo-Allergenic" is more accurate word. I mean that "green" could mean really lots of things. Thats why it's mostly used to advertise. People like being "green".

Hypo-Allergenic is something I can buy into. I understand allergies to chemicals as I have them myself (No fabric softener for me thank you),

Actually, you bring up a good point. What is "eco-friendly" in our (or any) industry anyway? I would say that IAQ is a larger part of it for us than, say, the carbon footprint. "Hypo-Allergenic" would probably be a more accurate term, but it seems that "green" in the cleaning industry is the catch-all. These should all be in our tags.

They aren't synonymous but, if a product degrades biologically then the foot print of said product is minimal and leaves behind minerals that the earth needs to sustain itself. By definition what is an eco-friendly product? Goods considered to inflict minimal or no harm on the Environment. I don't share the hippy definition of "eco-friendly or going green" which is to buy overpriced "Green" label products that have nearly or exactly the same effects on the environment as "chemicals".

Since when are "eco-friendly" and "biodegradable" synonymous?

in bc the use of ultrachem usually depends on whether or not u do any work for british columbia building corporation (bcbc). BCBC has mandated that all carpet cleaners servicing their buildings must use ultrachem products and have even provided a purchasing system for their preferred contractors. who's brother in law works where i ask u?

If you are considering Enviro products don't overlook Ecogent and Benefect. There are two types of Enviro products. The ones that claim they are friendly and the ones that actually have government and third party seal of approval. Talk is cheap. |

Its strange Andy and Willy but my techs say that Clean by Ultrachem gives them headaches as a bonnet cleaner and chest pains through a hydroforce. We have stopped buying it as a result. We use Ecogent, Responsible Care by Masterblend and Baby Safe as our primary cleaners today. If you guys who use Ultrapac, I hope you use the LVC version, the regular is deadly. |
