How Green Are You? – Be Greener by Using the Delphiseco Products

Monday, October 17th, 2011

Delphis products represent a major breakthrough in ecological cleaning.

The products  are developed from plant-based organic surfactants.  They are non-toxic, non harmful, non-hazardous to either people or animals, totally biodegradable.  By using these products you will not only contribute to the welfare of our environment, but you will also notice a difference in your pocket.  Using the Delphis range will save money by replacing multiple, hazardous chemical cleaners with more effective Delphis products which will improve the health and safety of your employees and customers.

Environmental safety is of paramount importance as recklessly dumping hazardous chemicals, detergents, soap and effluent into water courses and flushed down drains can no longer be done.

Delphis have developed a range of products that not only clean effectively, it also protects the environment and the people using it.

Environmentally Friendly Cleaning Products

Monday, July 26th, 2010

On the radio last week, it was suggested there is now a link between your increased risk of breast cancer and the cleaning products you use at home.  When you hear claims like these, it does make you start to think about what cleaning chemicals you use around the house.  These products don’t just have an effect on your health and your families health, but also the environment.

Before all these synthetic and toxic chemicals were developed, we purely relied on natural products for their cleaning and disinfectant properties.

Now, most of us, have an array of nasty and toxic cleaning chemicals under our sinks.  When you read the label they are a concoction of chemicals and very often have a hazard symbol on the back with the hazard written underneath. These harsh chemicals very often have specific instructions for use.  Many cannot be breathed in and require a ventilated area, and nearly all warn of not mixing with any other chemicals and advise which surfaces to avoid using them on.  Then, when we finish using them and take off our rubber gloves, we tip them all down our sinks into the water system….

We don’t have to though.  We CAN choose to use natural based cleaning products again and get the job done.

We are looking at alternatives to our cleaning products, not just for our homes, but for the offices we clean in.  We understand that companies are becoming subject to environmental audits and we want to work in partnership with our clients.

We have recently trialed two brands in our office for our cleaning and in our homes.  They are Method & bio-D. We have found them not only to be natural in their ingredients but they really do work!

We actively promote these ranges to our clients and use them in our homes.  

Everytime we pour something down the drain, we want our conscience to be clear…

All Natural Cleaning Products

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

It is important these days that we are more aware of what we put down our toilets and sinks to reduce the harm to the environment.

One of the ranges we can provide to clients is the Method range of cleaning products. 

We have tested Method products in the Shipshape office and we were impressed at the results.  Method products not only are great cleaning products but when using them, you can be assured that your conscience is clear.

Method products are:

People Friendly – Non-toxic, fresh and natural smelling , with scents like Pink Grapefruit, Lavender and Mint.  No harsh ammonia chemical smell and you can breathe easy

Bottle Friendly – Products are 100% recycled and 100% recyclable

Animal Friendly – Never tested on animals

In the office we particularly love:

Method Best in Glass

Method All Purpose Cleaner

Method Wood for Good

Method Steel for Real

On our sites, we only use microfibre cloths for our cleaning and these are colour coded, washed and replaced regularly.  We find using microfibre cloths with these products gives the best results. 

Be kind to our environment and look in your cleaners cupboard…..
