Eco-Friendly Solutions
We are committed to protecting and improving the environment. We strive to incorporate practical solutions to minimize negative environmental impacts through our Green Thread™ Programs which provide:
- Waste Stream Management: One of the first steps in reducing your environmental footprint is to limit the amount of garbage generated and divert waste that is generated away from landfill towards recycling and composing streams. We focus on the 3 R's (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle) in our operations.
- Responsible Procurement: We purchase and use environmentally friendly products and use suppliers who share our commitment for reducing negative impacts on the environment.
- Green Operations: Since building operations are a large consumer of natural resources and a contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, we help create and operate buildings that are environmentally friendly and energy efficient. We partner with school districts to provide a range of energy and water conservation programs to minimize our natural resource usage.
Innovation in action
Advances in our technology allow us to innovate and revolutionize facilities services.
We have big ideas and make them a reality. Our innovations allow our employees to work faster and perform better.
Blue Cleaning™
Our innovative Blue Cleaning™ process uses electrically activated tap water in place of chemicals that can be harmful to the planet. A low-level electrical charge applied to the water transforms it into a powerful water cleaning solution. This breaks apart dirt and can be cleaned up quickly without leaving a residue like chemical-based agents.
Touchless Cleaning System
Creating a healthy space that allows students to flourish requires advanced cleaning techniques. We accomplish this in a way that reduces costs and is done with less strain on employees.
Our touchless cleaning system allows for full-coverage cleaning in bathrooms including around difficult fixtures. 96% of contaminants are removed with this system, but even more important, no direct physical contact with the surfaces is required of the cleaning staff. The design allows employees to clean more efficiently than with other technologies. The results? A cleaner school, improved staff morale, and more time to improve your building elsewhere.
Remote Condition Monitoring
Identifying and correcting a problem before it becomes one is invaluable. We understand the costs and repercussions of unplanned repairs on your schools. With students’ education on the line, disruptions aren’t acceptable.
Remote condition monitoring allows us to continually evaluate operations and equipment to detect problems before the system fails. This helps avoid costly repairs or, even worse, school shut down. Remote Condition Monitoring saves your schools money, allows for proper budgeting and keeps your students and administration safer and more comfortable.
