One of the first in Australia … an environmentally sustainable carpet and upholstery cleaner with 1SO 14001 environmental compliance!

We’re proud of the fact that we’re probably only one of a few commercial carpet cleaning contractor’s in Australia that can offer our clients with a holistic an environmentally sustainable solution with Level 1 (5) ISO 14001 compliance.

In the commercial sector, Facility and Property Managersrecognise that by demonstrating to clients that they have implemented green practices into their everyday operations this will benefit their bottom line.

We think it is a credit to organisations genuinely doing the right thing.

The issues that arise from communicating greener practices are the doubts that the public have as to whether these statements are true and correct. Are the statements supported by evidence? Has the evidence been independently verified or is it a self declaration a ‘biased statement of conformity without evidence’.

The Green Pathway program was developed to provide a greener service and have their environmental practices recognised without the greenwash. According to Wikipedia, greenwash is the act of misleading consumers regarding the environmental practices of a company or the environmental benefits of a product or service. They want to be taken seriously.

Participants of the Green Pathway program must identify their organisations environmental aspects and impacts. An aspect is an element of organizations activities, products, or services which can interact with the environment.. The impact is any change to the environment whether adverse or beneficial, wholly or partially resulting from an organization’s activities, products, or services. From here the organisation determines their environmental significance and develops a program to mitigate what they have control over.

Furthermore they must establish and maintain documented environmental objectives and targets. These can include but are certainly not limited to a commitment to reduce waste, reduce or eliminate release of pollutants and/or design a product to minimize environmental impact in production, use and disposal.
