Cleaning re-imagined
Eco-benign® cleaning by Jani-King
Jani-King were proud recipients of the Excellence in Sustainability award at the 2024 Westpac New Zealand Franchise Awards. This recognition highlights their commitment to minimising environmental impact of traditional cleaning within the commercial cleaning industry.
Sustainability is a major focus for most industries in New Zealand, and Jani-King has committed to being part of the solution. Through initatives such as Toitū Carbon Compatible, Toitū Enviromark Diamond accreditation, and innovative sustainable cleaning solutions like their Eco-benign® probiotic cleaning system, Jani-King is leading the way.
The benefits of probiotics for gut health and wellbeing have become widely known in recent years, but how about the benefits of probiotics for cleaning?
These are less well-known. Jani-King is at the forefront of this field and its franchise business owners are already feeling the effects of its bespoke Eco-benign® range of cleaning products.
Ying Ji Jin is one such franchisee. Based in North Auckland, Ying is seeing the transformative power of probiotics supercharge her services.
“As we began to use probiotics, the ease and convenience of this innovative solution transformed our cleaning routines. We no longer need to use several chemical products; we found that one simple probiotic formula could effectively replace them all.
“It worked brilliantly on glass surfaces, leaving them sparkling clean without any marks or streaks. This eco-friendly alternative not only simplified our lives, it also brought a sense of satisfaction, knowing we were making healthier choices for our customers and the planet.”
With the global cleaning products market shifting towards sustainable and health-conscious solutions, it is no wonder that traditional chemical cleaners face increasing scrutiny due to their environmental impact and potential health risks.
A cleaner, healthier environment
Traditional cleaners kill bacteria indiscriminately, wiping out both harmful pathogens and beneficial bacteria, disrupting natural balance. Probiotic cleaning solutions, on the other hand, introduce beneficial bacteria (probiotics) to support a healthy microbial balance. This helps maintain a cleaner, healthier environment without relying on harsh chemicals, overuse of disinfectants and lifting antimicrobial resistance.
Jani-King’s non-toxic, allergen-free probiotic cleaning solutions, which the company provides to all franchisees free of charge, present an effective alternative, offering continuous cleaning and protection.
Franchisee Daljit is another delighted user.“Clients, especially preschools, are happy I use probiotics over chemical-based products.”
Through Jani-King’s Eco-benign® probiotic cleaning system, New Zealand businesses are kept safe and hygenic, while the franchise is leading the way in combining effective cleaning with environmentally responsible practices, changing lives one business at a time.
