Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program The Importance of Cleaning Cleaning for Health can reduce contaminant levels. Dr. Michael Berry, author of Protecting the Built Environment: Cleaning for Health, was able to quantify reductions in contaminant levels when improved cleaning methods were used. Reducing the source of the problems can improve the health of building occupants.* * Source Michael A. Berry, PhD (1994), Cleaning For Health: Protecting The Built Environment.

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program Study links improved cleaning to improved health outcomes.* Source Leonard R. Krilov, MD, (1996),"Impact Of An Infection control Program In A Specialized Preschool, American Journal of Infection Control (24: ). Dr. Leonard Krilov, Cornell University conducted a study at The Association For Children With Downs Syndrome school.While Dr. Michael Berry has shown improved cleaning methods reduce contaminant levels, Dr. Krilov wanted to see if improved cleaning methods positively impacted certain health related events and absenteeism levels. The Importance of Cleaning

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program The Importance of Cleaning Improve productivity by improving the indoor environment. Researchers show productivity improvements from 0.5% to 7% are not unusual when improving the indoor environment.* Green cleaning is one way to improve the indoor environment by removing contaminants that affect peoples health. Studies show lower illness and absenteeism rates when improved cleaning methods are used. * Source Stephen P. Ashkin, (March 2005),"The Health and Finances of Eco-Cleaning," via3.net Put cleaning into a meaningful financial perspective. According to BOMA, salaries and benefits for a class A office building account for $275 per square foot, while cleaning only accounts for about $1.25 per square foot. Recapturing 0.5% of productivity is worth $1.37. Based on an 8 hour workday 0.5% is less than 3 minutes a day!

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program Reducing absenteeism in schools. In the Syracuse (New York) Public School District, Barry Moore of Opus Consulting reported an attendance increase of 11.17% after implementing an improved cleaning strategy. The additional attendance resulting from better cleaning led to increased funding in the amount of $2.5 million !* * Source Stephen P. Ashkin, (March 2005),"The Health and Finances of Eco-Cleaning," via3.net The Importance of Cleaning

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program USGBC and LEED USGBC has developed the LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System, which is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings. LEED was created to define “green building” by establishing a common standard of measurement and to stimulate “green competition.” A LEED for Existing Building project can earn credits toward green building certification by implementing a green cleaning program, and a LEED for New Construction project can earn an innovation credit by submitting a written green cleaning policy. Even if your facility is not pursuing LEED certification, LEED for Existing Buildings can still be used as a guide to describe best practices in operations and maintenance of a facility.

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program Green Seal is an independent non-profit organization dedicated to safeguarding the environment and transforming the marketplace by promoting the manufacture, purchase, and use of environmentally responsible products. They certify hundreds of products using credible, science-based, and transparent standards. The Green Seal certification program meets the standards set by the International Organization of Standards (ISO). The program is equivalent to the Global Ecolabelling Network standard.

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program ECO LOGO EcoLogoCM is a third-party ecolabeling program and the only standard in North America approved by the Global Ecolabeling Network, an international association of ecolabeling programs, as meeting the ISO environmental labelling standard. Like the U.S. government’s Energy Star Program, EcoLogoCM was originally founded by the Canadian government and is now widely used across North America. EcoLogoCM provides a market incentive to manufacturers and suppliers of environmentally preferable products and services in more than 120 product categories (more than 7,000 products currently certified), and thereby helps purchasers, consumers identify products and services that are less harmful to human health and the environment. EcoLogoCM certification provides the assurance that those products and services meet stringent environmental standards that have been verified by a third party auditor.

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program Carpet & Rug Institute The CRI Seal of Approval program identifies effective carpet cleaning solutions and equipment that clean carpet right the first time and protect a facility’s carpet investment. Not all products clean well enough to earn the Seal of Approval distinction, so look for the blue and green CRI Seal of Approval as proof that you are purchasing or using a quality product.

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program U.S. Department of Agriculture BioPreferred U.S. Department of Agriculture, BioPreferred aims to increase the purchase and use of biobased products made from biological or renewable agricultural materials. BioPreferred is a Federal Government preferred procurement program as well as a voluntary labeling program (in development) for the broad-scale marketing of biobased products

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program EPA Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines (CPG) The EPA is a federal agency whose mission is “to protect human health and the environment.” CPG is the federal government's buy-recycled program and is authorized by Congress under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). EPA is required to designate products that are or can be made with recovered materials and to recommend practices for buying these products, including ranges of post consumer and total recovered materials content. Once a product is designated, procuring agencies are required to purchase it with the highest recovered material content level practicable. CPG-designated products from the cleaning industry include paper towels (40-60% postconsumer fiber), bathroom tissue (20-60% postconsumer fiber), and plastic trash bags (10-100% postconsumer content). CPG is referenced as the requirement to meet in the Sustainable Cleaning Products & Materials section of the LEED for Existing Buldings Green Building Rating System. CPG

Myers Supply & Chemical High Performance Cleaning Training Program EPA Design for the Environment (DfE) DfE reviews all product ingredients, by functional group (surfactant, solvent, etc.), identifying their key health and environmental characteristics and building a continuum of improvement toward safer chemicals. DfE review is green-chemistry focus, recognizing those products whose ingredients fall on the green end of the continuum. In addition, DfE has teamed with the GreenBlue Institute to develop the Clean-Gredients database, which uses the DfE methodology and “green screen” to identify safer chemicals for cleaning products (see Recognition from the DfE Program can be used to identify cleaning products that have demonstrated an environmentally preferable profile.
