Sustainable Biotechnology by BioHygiene, how does it work and why it will change your cleaning company

The world of cleaning is changing, mostly for the better with the explosion of environmental products and ranges coming out in the past few years.

Prior to this, conventional cleaning companies used many resources in the creation of their products. These dangerous compounds create un-recyclable waste, damage to our seas and consuming plenty of Co2 in transportation.

More companies are now getting behind the ethos of reducing plastic, sustainability and mitigating waste altogether and at Wessex, we welcome it with open arms, as sustainability has always been our main practice.

Environmental change

Now more and more companies are creating ranges and products that are eco-friendly and sustainable for the planet. Some of these include soluClean, Cheeky Panda, Soap2o and the company we will be focusing on in this blog, BioHygiene.

This increase of eco-friendly cleaning products means that less volatile chemicals are in the products. Previously, some of these chemicals such as Ammonia & Chlorine have caused serious harm or death to animals and aquatic wildlife.

Not only do traditional cleaners cause harm, but also create more plastic waste, thus creating landfills and creating more waste, unlike most eco-friendly multi purpose cleaners, which reserve as much resources as possible.

About BioHygiene

BioHygiene is a biological cleaning company that use biotechnology to improve their product ranges. Replacing harmful chemicals with eco-friendly alternatives to not only improve the planet, human health too.

So how does Biotechnology actually work and how would it support you?

Cleaning products based on biotechnology operate by fighting grime on surfaces. They do this by emulsifying, lifting, dispersing, sequestering, suspending and decomposing soils. Surfactants, or active agents, stimulate surface activity to aid in the trapping and removal of debris. Surfactants can perform the functions of detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, foaming agents, and dispersants.

Microbes, enzymes, and natural plant extracts are primarily used in BioHygiene to quickly break down and remove dirt, grime, and grease from surfaces.

These natural bacteria and the enzymes they create can clean surfaces just as effectively as, if not better than, standard chemicals, but without the environmental harm associated with harsh chemicals.
