    It's easy to be GREEN!

    GREEN. It's not just a color anymore. It's a buzz word for “environmentally friendly”, “sustainable”, or tagged to products and activities that have less of an impact on humans and/or the environment. Being eco-friendly is everywhere, and the janitorial industry is no exception. Green cleaning has exploded over the last few years and is only becoming more popular.
