Why High Performance Cleaning?
The ‘HPC’ in our name HPC Solutions™ is short for ‘High Performance Cleaning’.
This was big shift from our previous name, ‘Fresh Green Clean’ which we had used for 11 years, and we didn’t take the change lightly.
While environmental sustainability is still a big part of our DNA, we’re a little tired of green cleaning being viewed as a marketing novelty. The “just add a few eco-friendly chemicals if requested” approach.
Because the fact is, if cleaning is being performed as safely, efficiently, ethically and effectively as possible, your cleaning services will be competitive AND sustainable.
We just put frameworks and definitions around it so it can be specified, planned, trained, evaluated and measured, and called it High Performance Cleaning:
“Performing measurably healthier, more sustainable,
ethical and hygienic cleaning practices.”
All HPC Solutions programs and services are underpinned by the 4 HPC Aims shown in the diagram. Read more about High Performance Cleaning here
