Environmental awareness in business starts with sustainable purchasing

“Because we have long been concerned with the subject of sustainability, we had our company certified according to DIN EN ISO 14001. However, the certificate alone is not enough; the daily implementation is important to us. Consciously doing something that’s verifiably good for the environment is possible with Green Care Professional!

We see that sustainability is increasingly given a higher priority in building cleaning. Our company provides maintenance cleaning and other cleaning services in many schools, kindergartens and nursing homes. In those facilities, the customer clearly demands the use of sustainable cleaning products—even in requests for bids.

Henri Harder
Operations Head

Sustainability is in demand not only for the cleaning products themselves, but also for the way they are  manufactured. After our visit to the TANA factory in Mainz in June 24, which included an excellent and highly informative factory tour conducted by Mr. Markus Häfner, we were able to share with our customers the knowledge we had gained about the circular economy.

We get great support from the responsible application technician Mr. Andreas Haase. He always provides professional, competent advice about the products from TANA-Chemie. So we can confidently recommend that our customers use Green Care Professional products in connection with the Green Care Performance Calculator.”

Eine große Unterstützung ist uns immer unser zuständiger Anwendungstechniker, Herr Andreas Haase.

More Information

Sodexo is a global services provider that concentrates on improving quality of life for everyone. With an extensive portfolio of services in the fields of catering, facilities management, healthcare and benefits & rewards, Sodexo works in many countries for customers in a variety of industries.

In facilities management, Sodexo recognized early the growing demand from the professional cleaning industry for environmentally friendly and sustainable solutions. So it was many years ago that Sodexo began its successful cooperation with Werner & Mertz Professional Vertriebs GmbH.

The integration of Green Care Professional products in the services from Sodexo has led to several advantages:

  1. Sustainability: Sodexo can reach its sustainability goals—laid down in the Better Tomorrow Plan—and support its customers with environmentally friendly solutions. That helps Sodexo to cement its image as a responsible company and to win over new customers who value eco-friendly services.
  2. Efficiency: The powerful and effective products from Green Care Professional simply clean better. Cleaning processes can be optimized and the workflows at Sodexo can be made more efficient.
  3. Employee satisfaction: The use of ecological  products promotes the good health and well-being of cleaning staff. The employees at Sodexo can be proud to work for a company that puts sustainable practices to use.
  4. Customer satisfaction: Sodexo customers appreciate eco-friendly cleaning solutions and the company’s awareness of the need for environmental protection. All of that leads to higher customer satisfaction and customer loyalty.

The success story of Sodexo with Green Care Professional brand products is a shining example of the advantages arising from cooperation between companies that share a vision. The partnership shows that sustainability and business success can go hand in hand and that environmentally friendly practices can have a positive effect on the entire value chain—from production and service delivery to customer satisfaction.

Marc Preußner
Managing Director at WISAG Gebäudereinigung

“Conserving resources is definitely one of our top goals in building cleaning. With the sustainable brands from Tana-Chemie, we can clean buildings ecologically—without  compromising on cleanliness and hygiene. That’s why Tana-Chemie’s integrally sustainable approach is a perfect match with our corporate vision and our ecological goals.”

Effectiveness, Environmental Protection and User Safety

A role model in environmental protection, WISAG Gebäudereinigung offers its customers environmentally friendly services in buidling cleaning. The cleaning experts pay attention to a positive cost-benefit ratio. In the professional segment, genuine sustainability takes into account ecological factors, product performance and user safety. When WISAG chooses   cleaning products, it looks closely at the manufacturer. In Tana-Chemie, WISAG found a partner that consistently satisfies its sustainability requirements.

Green Care Professional wins points in employee satisfaction too. The professional, straightforward conversion to Green Care products went very smoothly. WISAG appreciated having Tana employees working on site and the extensive user training during the transition phase.  

The sales department sees great added value in the Green Care Calculator’s savings forecasts based on customers’ product consumption. The customer can display in real numbers the positive effect that using sustainable cleaning products has on its carbon footprint. That’s an important step toward more sustainability.

Managing Director

“We, Saubermacher Outsourcing, like our 40-year-old parent company Saubermacher AG, have in our genes good people management, service reliability and environmental protection.

Sustainable and ecological cleaning is more in demand than ever before. Saubermacher Outsourcing has been concerned with this subject for many years. We are pleased that we have found a competent and passionate partner in the Werner & Mertz Group. Our employees’ initial skepticism about Green Care Professional products was quickly replaced by enthusiasm. The simple handling of Quick & Easy articles, their efficiency and positive cleaning results speak for the use of these products. An incremental switch to Green Care Professional products throughout Austria took place a few years ago.

Since then, we use up to 92% Cradle to Cradle® products. That makes us as a company and me personally very proud. Environmental protection cannot be only a short-term, modern way of life, but has to become firmly anchored in the minds of people and companies.

We at Saubermacher Outsourcing consistently follow this path. For a livable environment. For a future fit for our grandchildren. What we do today determines how the world will look tomorrow.”

Managing Director Gebäudereinigung Jeblick GmbH

“In our company and at our headquarters in Kaiserslautern, the topic of sustainability plays a very large role. We have also been paying attention to efficiency and our carbon footprint for years, whether it’s optimized route planning through our order scheduling, for example, or the use of equipment and machines with high energy efficiency classes.

We have tested the Green Care products extensively before using them in selected properties and in a wide variety of areas. The cleaning results achieved, the efficiency and, last but not least, the price-performance ratio in connection with the approach of sustainable production have convinced us completely in the end. The conversion of all cleaning agents to the products of the Green Care series was subsequently carried out within a few weeks. Our decision to switch to Green Care products was very well received by our customers right from the start.

The Performance Calculator is a very interesting tool for highlighting potential savings. Against the background of the increasingly requested or even demanded benchmarks by customers in almost all areas, it facilitates our work here.

We would like to encourage people to think about what they can do and change in their immediate environment and behavior in terms of environmental protection and sustainability.

In a time in which major changes would be necessary, but are often delayed with discussions down to the thousandth, may not everyone who pays a little attention to sustainability and environmental protection feel like a climate hero? For us, hikers and walkers who collect trash on their tours in the Palatinate Forest, or teenagers who pay attention to sustainably produced fashion, are also climate heroes. And yes, we also feel a bit like climate heroes through the use of Green Care products.”

Miljø Rent A/S was founded in 1983 and has always been known for well-done work and high service levels. Every day we provide thorough, efficient and professional cleaning services to over 100 companies; always flexible solutions that fit the needs of each individual location.

Evy and Yvonne joined Miljørent in 2013 and have been part of the ownership team since 2018.

In 2014, they came to the realization that the name Miljørent obliges and started researching the market for environmentally friendly products that worked. They tested products from Tana as well as some swan-labelled products. With responsibility, great knowledge of the products and the constant attention to minimize environmental impact, they chose Tana’s Cradle to Cradle products.

In cooperation with Tana’s consultant, they always find a solution to the challenges they may face and are happy to test new products.

Miljørent acquired the cleaning company Kiwik Aps in January 2021 and immediately started to replace the products with Tana’s Cradle to Cradle products, to the delight of both customers and assistants.

To further contribute to CO2 responsibility, Miljøtrent/Kiwik compensate for the use of regular diesel and petrol cars by supporting Vertree.

Every day, Miljørent takes pride in making a positive contribution to the health and well-being of its customers and the global community.

Cleaning for a healthier planet: we use sustainable products to protect the environment. Because at Renas, we consider sustainability in everything we do – for the sake of the environment, but also for the sake of our customers and our staff. And our customers are very happy to help the environment by using us as a cleaning partner:

We have an assistant at a large company in Odense who is hypersensitive to our old products. She has received our new Green Care products and says that she no longer has allergic reactions and headaches. She also thinks they are fantastic: They don’t streak, the cleaning quality is fantastic, she doesn’t have to think about dosing due to the “dosing head”, etc. In short, she is a super happy woman.

We told our contact person at the company that we now use environmentally friendly and sustainable products and suggested to him that the company uses this in their marketing as part of their sustainability policy towards customers and employees.

He got very excited!

Newydd Catering & Cleaning is a brand new Local Authority Trading Company created to deliver high quality, financially viable, sustainable, customer-focused catering and cleaning services.

Sustainability is really important to us. We primarily work in schools, and they are really committed to having a positive environmental impact – which means there is pressure on us to be seen as a sustainable organisation.  Students these days are really aware of climate change and the environment, and it’s important to us that we set an example to them, from everything to the cleaning products we use to the way in which we serve the food/drink to the students.

We implemented Green Care Professional products as part of wider campaign to promote more sustainable practice. The presentation of the products and their sustainable backstory really influenced us, and made us think about our responsibility to the environment and the impact we could have by promoting a better environmental message. Our decision was also influenced from a health and safety perspective. The fact that the chemicals were non-toxic really impressed us, as it meant we could protect our staff from toxic chemical hazards and really reduce risk at work. 

The environmental impact of cleaning products may not be something our clients consider, but when they see the Green Care Performance Certificate and the savings data it really helps them to consider the bigger picture, and see the impact we are having.

It’s all about making the little, everyday things we do as sustainable as possible, and together these add up and contribute to make the bigger difference.

Trattino is much more than a simple restaurant. It is a place where you can eat, drink, shop, share and discover. Entirely dedicated to sustainable food, the Lyon-based establishment gathers under the same roof a restaurant, a bar-cafe and a grocery store. All year long the place is animated by a cultural and event program. Guillaume Chambon, Head of Sourcing at Trattino explains:

Guillaume Chambon
Head of Sourcing at Trattino

“We dedicated this place to ecological and responsible food because we are convinced that the food of today and tomorrow must be organic. The 3 spaces are certified 100% organic, are from places within 150 km of Lyon, and all the meals are seasonal and home-made.”

Organic, local, fair, and gourmet are the 4 values of Trattino.

Trattino met Green Care Professional at the SIRHA green fair in Lyon, while Trattino was looking for its last suppliers before opening. Using eco-friendly cleaning and hygiene products was obvious from the start. Indeed, according to Guillaume:

“when you prepare organic and local products it doesn’t make sense to use conventional hygiene products.”

Thus, the kitchen of the restaurant is equipped with Kliks pouch (MANUDISH evokliks and ENERGY/BRILLANT prokliks) while the Quick & Easy systems complete the other needs in the different areas, such as the sanitary facilities. Discover the video made with the Trattino teams.
