Did you say Organic? Yes, we did! Our competitors like to use the word Natural, but Natural has mostly morphed into a marketing term. The word Natural is NOT governed by any official regulatory board or government agency, but Organic claims are regulated! The term Organic is governed by the USDA and specific ingredients and strict standards must be met before a company is approved as Certified Organic. Greenology has achieved those standards and we are proud to deliver our quality products to you!

Improve school productivity in students, teachers & administrators. Many studies illustrate how poor indoor air quality (IAQ) in schools adversely affects many of the nation's 55 million students with health problems such as asthma and flu. Petroleum based cleaning chemicals contribute to poor IAQ. The EPA’s website states:
Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a critical component of providing a healthy and comfortable learning environment. IAQ affects the health, productivity, performance, and comfort of students, teachers, and staff. Good IAQ helps schools meet their core mission -- educating children.
Improving IAQ in schools can help:
-
Reduce absenteeism
-
Improve student and staff concentration
-
Improve student productivity and performance
-
Decrease IAQ-related health risks from exposure to indoor pollutants
-
Reduce environmental triggers of asthma
-
Reduce respiratory illness
Increase safety by reducing the likelihood and frequency of fires, explosions, spills, and splashes.
Reduce environmental impacts, including regional and global environmental issues such as air pollution, water pollution, raw materials resource use, bioaccumulation of chemicals in plants and animals, ozone depletion, and global climate change. Green cleaning also reduces the amount and toxicity of products and chemicals requiring disposal.
