Could the Cleaning Products in Your Home be Making Your Family Sick?
Cleaning products can be found everywhere in our homes and offices. You will find residues on your dishes, your countertops, furniture, clothes, floors, windows, and floating through the air. Our war on dirt and germs may actually be making things worse.
Most of the conventional cleaning products we all grew up with are petroleum-based, and many of these products are proven to have negative health and environmental implications. Just look at the following information –
- 17,000: the number of petrochemicals available for home use, only 30 percent of which have been tested for exposure to human health and the environment.
- 63: the number of synthetic chemical products found in the average American home, translating to roughly 10 gallons of harmful chemicals.
- 100: the number of times higher that indoor air pollution levels can be above outdoor air pollution levels, according to US EPA estimates.
- 275: the number of active ingredients in antimicrobials that the EPA classifies as pesticides because they are designed to kill microbes.
- 5 billion: the number of pounds of chemicals that the institutional cleaning industry uses each year.
- 23: the average gallons of chemicals (that is 87 liters) that a janitor uses each year, 25 percent of which are hazardous.
Traditional toxic cleaning products are harmful and may cause:
- Eye irritations
- Allergies
- Nausea
- Headaches
- Cancer
- Respiratory problems
- Skin irritations or burns
Does that make you feel good or safe? Probably not, and it is likely that you have experienced some of these symptoms yourself when using the traditional cleaning products.
So what is the solution?
Instead of using cleaning products that kill everything in their path, there are plenty of natural products and methods that will help keep your house clean and fresh-smelling without the toxic side effects.
To learn more about green cleaning and protecting your family, pets and staff from the effects of toxic cleaning materials, join us this Saturday, 24th October 2009 at the Indian River Mall for the 2009 Green Expo.
Mary Conrad of Conrad’s Cleaning Service Inc. the ‘Green Cleaning Experts’ will be on hand to help you better understand your options when it comes to cleaning your home safely.

In an industry known for its use of harsh and cost-cutting chemicals, Conrad’s Cleaning Service, Inc. announces its 100% commitment to using only “Green Seal® Certified” and environmentally safer cleaning products while employing methodologies and systems that are ergonomically safe for their employees and clients. “Green Seal®” is a non-profit organization dedicated to setting environmental standards, product certification and public education. The “Green Seal®” mark is a worldwide recognized proof that a product meets the rigorous requirements of a particular environmental requirement and that the product performs at a superior level.
Mary Conrad, co-owner of Conrad’s Cleaning service noted “At Conrad’s Cleaning Services, Inc. we don’t use off-brand so-called non-toxic cleaners. ‘Green Cleaning’ is more than trendy; it is being demanded by our clients because their employees, clients, and stakeholders are asking for it.”
Conrad’s Cleaning Service, Inc. has recently invested in all new equipment including new color-coded buckets, mops, micro-fiber cloths and various tools. Their equipment is color-coded to the particular type of room that is being cleaned. For example, whether it is someone’s home or office, cloths that wipe down a rest-room will never be used to clean food-prep areas. Conrad’s Cleaning Service, Inc. also employs the latest cleaning technology by using top-of-the-line vacuum cleaners made by Pro-Team®. The Pro-Team® vacuums have been tested and approved by both the Carpet and Rug Institute and the American Lung Association.
Deb Pate, co-owner, adds “You likely won’t be spending any more money to have us professionally “Green Clean” your home, office or construction site, but you’ll get all of the benefits that ‘Green Cleaning’ provides.” She worries about the environment and the future generation. Deb stated that “Conrad’s wants to serve our clients and we want to be stewards of our environment. We are striving to lessen our environmental impact and use products that don’t add to the global warming problem. By being responsible everyone benefits.”
“Green Seal®” cleaning offers improved indoor air quality, a healthier workplace, improved employee morale, lower absenteeism, reduction in waste and pollution, and the ability for a business to market themselves as “green-friendly.”
Conrad’s Cleaning Services is a full-service commercial and residential firm, offering only “Green Cleaning” to their clients. They are licensed, bonded and insured. Their industry memberships include the Indian River County Chamber of Commerce, Treasure Coast Builder’s Association, National Association of Women in Construction, and Building Service Contractors Association International.
