The HOST® dry carpet cleaning system has received superior certifications for its ecological and environmental qualities, along with its superior cleaning ability.
Did you know that HOST is the only dry carpet cleaning company to achieve the Green Seal® certification for environmental standards?
That's just one of the reasons we're proud to use HOST products.
WoolSafe®, an organisation dedicated to assuring quality and excellent care for wool, has given HOST cleaning products its seal of approval.
The United States Department of Agriculture gave the USDA BioPreferred Certification for HOST's cleaning products, the first dry carpet cleaning product to receive such recognition. This means that it's biodegradeable and contains no petroleum derivatives. HOST's cleaning sponges are made from completely renewable resources and can even be composted.
The Environmental Protection Agency set up the Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP) program to assist businesses in selecting environmentally friendly and safe products. EPP guidelines mirror those used by GreenSeal in regards to potentially harmful chemicals, low VOC (volatile organic content), flammability, packaging, and biodegradeability. HOST products are at the top of the class:
- HOST is bio-based & uses only renewable resources.
- HOST conserves energy & water. Not only does it use only a minimal amount of water, it doesn't use energy to heat it.
- HOST is not a disinfectant, which can be harmful to the environment. It does, however, have EPA-registered ability to remove harmful particles.
- HOST's corporate environmental performance is the best in its category, as documented by the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST's) Building for Environmental and Economic Sustainability (BEES) Life Cycle Analysis. HOST says they intend to keep it that way.
Many environmental organisations recognise that it takes a lot of energy to heat water used in water extraction methods of carpet cleaning. With the HOST system, there is no water to heat, no need for air conditioners to dry carpets, no need for blowers, and no need for dehumidifiers.
Health and Safety
HOST products have been tested with the United States' Consumer Products Commission and Federal Hazardous Substances Act regulations. They have found that HOST is not an eye irritant or a primary skin irritant, and that it's not toxic when ingested orally or inhaled. It contains no dyes or heavy metals. It doesn't become airborne, so cannot become a nasal or air passageway irritant.
The Hazardous Materials Information System rates it as:
