Operational Process: Choosing Carpet Cleaning Chemicals

Your carpet cleaning chemicals can set the tone of your company. Choosing the wrong chemicals may not only produce lesser than ideal results, but often lead to confusion with your cleaning techs. Let’s face it, most manufacturers/distributors want you to purchase MANY different chemicals. Why not… it is more money in their pocket! You can tell this by seeing how many pre-sprays, extraction detergents, spot & stain removers they carry. What is really funny is that a single manufacturer can make 5 different pre-sprays, 5 different extraction rinses, and 10 different spotters, and try to sell them all to you! They go under the guise that you need different products for all the different situations. What type of carpet is it? What is the source of the stain? Is it acidic or alkaline? Hey, do a pH test, or a burn test, etc. Come on! Does it really need to be this way? Honestly, the goal for many of them is to confuse you. Confusion leads to relying on the salesperson or “instructor” teaching you how to do things. This allows them to sell you more product! You should not have to be a mobile chemist! Carpet cleaning is not rocket science.

A decade ago, CleanCraft knew there was a better way.We set out on a mission to produce a safer alternative to the harsh chemicals that existed, while at the same time, developing a product that can do it all. Code: Green was the result of this mission.Code: Green was built to be your “All-in-One”carpet cleaning agent.This product can be used as a pre-spray, in-tank cleaning solution and rinse, and your spot & stain remover. Yes, you read this correct. One product for everything! It can be used on any carpet or fabric that can be wet cleaned. No confusion here! Have a tech that always wonders how to approach a situation? Not with Code: Green. Simple:Pre-spray the traffic area (not even the whole room), clean with Code: Green in your solution tank, and use a Spray Bottle with Code: Green in it as your spot & stain remover. One product that is EPA approved “Safer Choice” that can be used as your everything cleaner!

What do you get out of this?

Safer Cleaning:Code: Green is approved by the EPA’s Safer Choice Program. This means the ingredients are all approved by the EPA’s list of safer choice chemicals. Safer for your techs, your customers, and your customer’s pets.

Quicker Cleaning Times: You no longer need to pre-spray the whole room down. Since you will be cleaning with Code: Green in your solution tank, you only need to pre-spray the center traffic areas. What use to take you 4 minutes to pre-spray, will now take you 30 seconds. Multiply by 8 rooms in a home, and you just saved yourself almost a ½ hour of time!

Cleaner Results: So many carpet cleaners use a “rinse” or just plain water in their extractor. You will find that cleaning with Code: Green in the extraction solution tank will provide better cleaning results. Now every stroke you take with that wand has cleaner power behind it…. Not just flushing or rinsing action. Don’t worry… Code: Green is neutral pH and doesn’t have fillers, so you leave the carpet & fabric fresh & clean!

Money Savings:Since you will be stocking less chemicals, you will be saving on chemical costs. You don’t need to carry 15 different products!Plus, as mentioned in the “Quicker Cleaning Times” section, you will save time, and TIME = MONEY! If you had 3 jobs that day and saved ½ hour of time on each job, that is 1-1/2 hours of time savings. What can you do with that time?Another job? That is more money in your pocket.

Less Confusion: One product does it all: Pre-spray, Extraction/Rinse, and Spot & Stain Removal. What is there to teach? All your cleaning technicians can handle this. Easy, peasy!

Happy Technicians:Not only are you techs getting a healthier environment to work in, but the techs are less confused with chemical usage. If you pay commissions, the time savings will also help them make more $$$$. Make the job easier for them!

More Customers: You fill find that potential customers will turn in to actual customers, because they know you are using a safer cleaning solution. They want a safer/healthier environment for their family.

Happy Customers: Even your existing customers will be happier knowing that you now use a safer product in their home.
