In today’s work environment, cleanliness is a matter of both aesthetic quality and workplace health. It isn’t enough for an office to look good; it also needs to preserve the wellbeing of its workers.

The right janitorial supplies can help reduce illness while reinforcing your organization’s commitment to wellness and safety. Learn how to transform your workplace into a lean, mean, clean machine with these tips!

Use Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products

Traditional cleaning chemicals often contain harsh ingredients that may irritate the skin, eyes or respiratory system.

Modern green-certified cleaning products provide strong disinfection without putting employee health at risk.

Seek out brands that carry Green Seal or EcoLogo certifications. These options fight germs effectively while remaining biodegradable and low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Focus on High-Touch Areas

Keep shared workspaces clean and safe by placing disinfecting wipes and touchless hand sanitizers in common areas.

Antibacterial sprays should also be within easy reach for surfaces like door handles, elevator buttons and keyboards that need regular attention and receive a lot of hand traffic.

Touchless dispensers and refillable systems are also crucial for maintaining hygiene while cutting down on waste.

Stock Smart, Stock Sustainably

Choosing sustainable janitorial products—like recycled paper towels or bulk refill soaps—supports both health and environmental responsibility.

Meanwhile, smart dispensers can limit overuse and offer long-term cost savings.
