Sustainable cleaning company for conscious organizations

A sustainable cleaning company does more than just clean with different products. It makes conscious choices in cleaning agents, packaging, waste, paper use, physical strain and on-site collaboration. At 1nergiek, we translate sustainability into everyday choices that fit your building, users and desired quality level.

We help organizations with cleaning that is clean, well cared for and practically workable. From microfiber and refillable spray bottles to osmosis water, digital working and attention for our cleaning colleagues. This is how we make sustainability concrete in day-to-day cleaning practice.

What is a sustainable cleaning company?

A sustainable cleaning company looks beyond the end result alone. It is not only about a clean space, but also about the way that space is kept clean. Which products are used? How is waste reduced? How are employees supported? And does the way of working fit the building and the people who use it every day?

Sustainable cleaning only works when it fits the location, the users and the desired quality level. An office, school, care location, retail environment or production site each requires different choices. That is why 1nergiek looks at what is needed for each organization and how cleaning can be set up responsibly.

What should you look for when choosing a sustainable cleaning company?

Do not focus only on words like green, sustainable or environmentally friendly. Ask especially which choices a cleaning company makes on a daily basis. Which cleaning products are used? How are packaging and waste reduced? How is paper use reduced? And how is a safe and healthy working environment ensured for cleaning staff?

A sustainable cleaning company must be able to explain how sustainability works in practice. At 1nergiek, we do that with concrete choices in products, materials, digital working, safety, ergonomics and collaboration with clients.

How does 1nergiek work sustainably in practice?

Sustainability at 1nergiek is not a separate project. It is a way of working. In our services, in the choices we make and in how we deal with colleagues and clients. That means we translate sustainability into concrete choices on site. We look at products, materials, waste, paper use, physical strain and collaboration. Not with big words, but with practical steps that fit into daily cleaning.

Sustainable cleaning products and conscious material use

An important part of sustainable cleaning is the choice of products and materials. 1nergiek works with microfiber and reusable packaging. This allows us to limit the use of chemical cleaning products and produce less waste.

Our spray bottles are also refilled again and again. This prevents unnecessary use of new plastic and keeps the waste stream smaller.

98% of our cleaning products are fully recyclable or Cradle to Cradle certified. The remaining portion has at least an EU Ecolabel. In exceptional situations, for example with extreme contamination, it may be necessary to use other products.

Digital working where possible

Sustainable cleaning is also about using less paper and organizing things more smartly. 1nergiek uses digital systems and apps, including the 1nergiek app. This allows us to check, report and evaluate our work more efficiently.

Within 1nergiek, the rule also applies: prefer not to print unless it is really necessary. This limits paper use and keeps information more accessible for the people who work with it.

Osmosis water for glass cleaning and facade cleaning

For glass cleaning and facade cleaning, 1nergiek works with self-generated osmosis water. This allows windows and facades to be cleaned without additional cleaning products.

That makes osmosis water a conscious choice for organizations that also want to work more sustainably during specialized tasks. Think of glass cleaning, facade maintenance or periodic cleaning of the exterior of a building.

Sustainability is also about people

A sustainable cleaning company looks not only at products, but also at people. Cleaning work can be physically demanding. That is why 1nergiek invests in attention on the work floor, vitality, safety and ergonomics.

We provide good equipment, safe working conditions and on-site guidance. We do this together with our operations management and our clients. In this way, sustainable working becomes not only something for the environment, but also for the cleaning staff who carry out the work every day.

Which organizations is sustainable cleaning suitable for?

Sustainable cleaning is relevant for organizations that want to keep their workplace clean and well cared for while also dealing more consciously with products, waste, people and collaboration. 1nergiek supports, among others:

The implementation differs by location. An office requires different choices than a care building, school or production environment. That is why we tailor the cleaning to the use of the building, the desired quality and the organization’s sustainability ambitions.

Sustainable cleaning without loss of quality

Sustainability must not come at the expense of quality. A space must remain clean, safe and pleasant for employees, visitors, customers, clients or guests. That is why, at 1nergiek, we always look for the right balance between conscious choices and a cleaning result that fits the location.

Sometimes that means using fewer products. Sometimes it means better planning, working smarter or aligning the frequency differently with the actual use of the building. Sustainable cleaning is therefore not a standard package, but a way to organize cleaning more consciously.

How do you start with a sustainable cleaning company?

A good start begins with insight into your location. We look at the building, the use of the spaces, the current cleaning agreements and the possibilities for working more consciously. Our approach usually consists of five steps.

  1. Introduction: We discuss your organization, location, wishes and sustainability ambitions.

  2. Inventory: We look at the spaces, cleaning frequency, products, materials and existing agreements.

  3. Tailor-made proposal: You receive a proposal that fits the desired quality, execution and conscious choices on site.

  4. Start on site: We ensure clear agreements, good handover and guidance of our cleaning colleagues.

  5. Evaluation and adjustment: We keep looking at what can be better, smarter or more consciously done.

What does a sustainable cleaning company cost?

The costs of a sustainable cleaning company depend on the situation at the location. Think of the type of building, the surface area, the number of rooms, the cleaning frequency, the desired quality level and any additional services.

Choices in products, materials, planning and execution also play a role. That is why 1nergiek works with a tailor-made proposal. We look at what is needed, give honest advice and make it clear in advance what to expect.

This way, you know which cleaning arrangements fit your organization and how sustainability can practically be included.
