ROBERT ISRAEL
While many people have never heard of alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs), a large percentage of professional cleaners come into contact with them almost daily. Surfactants, or “surface active agents,” are used in a wide variety of cleaning chemicals. A urfactant is any substance that when dissolved in water reduces its surface tension between it and another liquid, which helps loosen and remove soils from the surface on which it is applied. APEOs are a class of chemicals commonly used as surfactants in a variety of applications. A common subset of APEOs are nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs), an inexpensive, non-ionic surfactant that has been used for the past 50 years in laundry, warewashing, hard surface cleaners and floor care products. While NPEs break down in the environment, the byproduct, nonyphenol, poses a greater risk to aquatic life and potentially human health. Wastewater treatment facilities theoretically have the capabilities of effectively breaking down nonylphenol and its ethoxylates. Yet, the U.S. EPA has noted rising levels of nonylphenol in water samples taken from streams and rivers throughout the U.S. NPEs are known to be toxic to certain aquatic species and is a suspected endocrine disruptor. For example, some studies have shown that the presence of NPEs in rivers results in high levels of female hormones in male trout. Noting that the rise of NPEs in the environment hasn’t necessarily reached toxic levels, the EPA created the Safer Detergents Stewardship Initiative (SDSI) to recognize companies, facilities and others who voluntarily phase out or commit to phasing out these chemicals. Through the EPA’s Design for the Environment Program (DfE), safer alternatives to NPEs have been identified, which are both readily available and cost effective. Product manufacturers that commit to phasing out APEOs will not necessarily find a single “drop in” substitute, however. Extensive testing may be required to ensure that product performance is not compromised while being environmentally preferable and price competitive. In recognizing the risks associated with NPEs, other countries throughout the world have already taken the initiative to ban this chemical from use. Europe has voluntarily banned use of the chemical in the manufacture of cleaning products. Japan has banned use of it in any application throughout the country through regulation. The Canadian government, especially in Toronto, has also recently placed disposal limitations on wastewater treatment plants to reduce the amount of nonylphenol released into the environment. In late October, Wal-Mart Stores Inc. challenged their suppliers to remove NPEs from products both sold on their shelves and used in back-of-the-house operations. As a part of their “Preferred Chemical Principles” initiative, Wal-Mart aims to drive the development of more sustainable products for “mother, child, and the environment.” As Wal-Mart sets the precedent with their commitment to using environmentally sustainable products, other companies will inevitably follow suit. This could mean new opportunities for building service managers and contractors who service these facilities. A floor care program that uses chemicals without APEOs or NPEs now will have a head start on the competition as facilities look to eradicate the chemical from their operations. Look for products approved by Green Seal label, as they will not contain APEOs; however, be aware, there are other products on the market that are not certified and do not possess the chemical. When selecting a new line of chemicals without APEOs, building service managers should use this as an opportunity to market and promote their business. Developing an Environmentally Friendly Floor Care Program
In order to develop an environmentally sustainable program, use of chemicals without APEOs is one of the many components to a comprehensive floor care plan. Developing a comprehensive floor care plan can help alleviate the strain on workers and the environment while enhancing the longevity of your floors. • Ensure floors are cleaned daily. This will eliminate the frequency of floor stripping and finishing and ultimately increase the life of the floor. • Strip and finish floors according to wear patterns as opposed to calendar schedules. This cuts down on chemical and labor waste. • Train workers to dust, damp mop and vacuum floors and matting to reduce the amount of products and labor used. • Incorporate microfiber into your floor care program. Use of microfiber reduces the amount of chemical used. Train workers on the proper handling of floor care chemicals to prevent overspraying and the release of chemicals into the air, affecting indoor air quality. • Assure floor care products are properly diluted. Use a dilution control system to prevent overuse of chemicals, while reducing workers’ direct exposure to concentrates. As the market continues its push for green products and sustainable practices, traditional chemical compounds will become increasingly scrutinized. Those chemicals known to pose a hazardous threat on the environment face a certain threat of eventual extinction. Building service managers who take a proactive approach to using comprehensive product lines that do not contain APEOs will gain an edge on the competition while helping protect aquatic life and human health.

JohnsonDiversey’s Zorba, a super-absorbent disposable strip for controlling leaks and spills, earned the assocation’s highest award for product innovation. TASKI swingo XP, an automatic scrubber-drier, picked up one of two of the CHSA highly commended awards. The DIFY dishwashing system was one of the product runners-up, and although it did not win an award, it was praised by the judges. The CHSA awards recognize and reward manufacturers who invest in and demonstrate product innovation. Zorba and TASKI swingo XP stood out among the judges for their many innovative features. Zorba, the overall winner, was researched and developed in conjunction with three of the U.K.’s leading retailers. Each 60-cm Zorba strip can absorb up to as much as 2 liters of liquid quickly and efficiently, radically reducing the risk of slip/fall accidents. Easy-to-use, Zorba requires minimal training, serves as an aesthetic and functional warning device, provides a single solution for multiple tasks and can be disposed of quickly and easily without leaking. The highly commended TASKI swingo XP, a revolutionary automatic scrubber-drier, increases productivity by up to 30 percent and reduces cleaning’s environmental impact. The machine features two new patented solutions for improved scrubbing and drying: an environmentally friendly V-shaped micro-rotating TASKI contourTM scrubbing unit for consistent peak performance (which provides a proven 50 percent reduction in water consumption and a 30 percent reduction in energy consumption versus conventional scrubber driers) and a W-shaped TASKI contourTM squeegee with a three-castor wheel concept that allows the squeegee to perfectly follow the floor for total dryness, even at high working speeds. Lastly, the praised DIFY (Does It For You) dishwashing system, an industry first, is a simple, highly effective system for dispensing chemicals into the dishwasher. Specifically designed for the smaller end-user, the system harnesses two unique innovations: safety-conscious 2-in-1 sachets of detergent and rinse-aid, and a clever “J-Watcher,” a device that flashes red to indicate when a new sachet needs to be added. DIFY is completely free of mechanical components that can break or fail, improving kitchen efficiency and eliminating downtime caused by faulty equipment. _____________________________________________________________ JohnsonDiversey Inc.

Virox Technologies and JohnsonDiversey recognized for cross-border collaboration on green disinfectants Toronto, Oct. 23, 2006 – The Canadian American Business Council, the voice of the Canadian American business community, today selected Virox Technologies Inc., of Oakville, Ont., and JohnsonDiversey Inc., of Sturtevant, Wis., to be awarded the prestigious Business Achievement Award for their collaboration in developing and distributing, a safe and environmentally friendly hydrogen peroxide-based disinfectant. In 2001, Virox Technologies and JohnsonDiversey formed a partnership in the ongoing fight against infectious disease and together have proven that a disinfectant need not be toxic to be effective. “In 2003, we were at the forefront of the global fight against SARS in large part because of our partnership with Virox,” said Ed Lonergan, President and CEO of JohnsonDiversey. “And this partnership is at the foundation of our aggressive approach in the fight against the spread of avian flu and other infectious diseases. Our relationship with Virox is not just good business. It is also helping to protect public health. We're proud of how this U.S.-Canadian business enterprise is making this world a safer, healthier place.” Each year, the Council identifies innovative and successful alliances between Canadian and American businesses to recognize the benefits that these partnerships bring to both countries - in jobs, innovation, and revenue creation. Judges look for sustained profitability, job creation, financial strength, environmental responsibility, and exceptional innovation. Past award winners have included Research in Motion (RIM), Intel Corporation, Syncrude, and Caterpillar. “The judges for this year’s Business Achievement Award were not only impressed by the working partnership between the two companies but also by the positive impact their solution has for reducing the threat of infectious disease,” said Randolph Dove, Board Chairman, Canadian American Business Council. “The CABC recognizes their incredible work and applauds their cross-border alliance on a global scale.” “Many disinfectants are currently under scrutiny due to increasing concern with human and environmental safety,” said Dr. Syed A. Sattar, director of the Centre for Research on Environmental Microbiology, University of Ottawa. “Too many disinfectants have a narrow spectrum of germicidal activity, because most products are only tested against easy-to-kill bacteria and not against more resistant viruses. The Virox / JohnsonDiversey partnership is meeting the need for safer, more effective germicides." Virox Technologies and JohnsonDiversey will be formally presented with their award at the 12th Annual Awards luncheon taking place during the North American Competitiveness Forum on November 8th, 2006 at the Royal York. For information on the event please visit www.canambusco.org. The Canadian American Business Council is the voice of business in the world’s most prosperous relationship.

The products and tools were tested and certified based on both GREENGUARD low-emitting product certifications, including GREENGUARD for Children and Schools™. GREENGUARD™ is an industry-independent, third-party organization. “GREENGUARD is complementary with environmentally preferable product certifications, such as Green Seal,” said Daniel A. Daggett, Ph.D., group leader, Global Product Safety, JohnsonDiversey. “That’s because it goes beyond products and actually looks at how the cleaning process affects indoor air quality. Just using Green Seal-certified products is not enough because the products can be misused and impact indoor air quality. We’re pleased to be able to offer the industry’s first GREENGUARD indoor air quality certified cleaning system.” Because customers consider indoor air quality (IAQ) to be one of the most important environmental issues, JohnsonDiversey developed an IAQ cleaning system. GREENGUARD evaluated JohnsonDiversey’s system as a bundled strategy using the organization’s stringent Children and Schools certification criteria to measure its effect on IAQ. “By opting for the stringent GREENGUARD for Children and Schools certification, JohnsonDiversey acknowledges that children are a more sensitive population when it comes to indoor air quality,” Daggett said. “Having a cleaning system that has been awarded indoor air quality certification for children and schools can benefit our in-house and BSC customers, who work in all types of facilities, not just schools. This means that these professionals can be confident that their cleaning systems use low-emitting products and produce better indoor environments for all building occupants.” JohnsonDiversey is also a team-leader sponsor of the Healthy Schools Campaign’s Quick & Easy Guide to Green Cleaning in Schools. The Healthy Schools Campaign is a non-profit organization that advocates for policies and programs designed to help provide safer, healthier and cleaner school environments. JohnsonDiversey is helping to educate school administrators, teachers, facility managers and parents about the benefits of green cleaning. The Healthy High Performance Cleaning System consists of three important elements: chemical products, tools and procedures to achieve lower impact on IAQ. JohnsonDiversey’s Green Seal-certified products include Johnson Wax Professional brands: Stride® Citrus neutral cleaner, Alpha HPTM/MC multi-surface cleaner, Crew® bathroom cleaner and scale remover and Glance®/MR NA glass, mirror and multi-surface cleaner; and Butcher’s brands: Raindance™ neutral cleaner, G-Force® H202 multi-surface cleaner, G-Force® washroom cleaner and LookTM/MC NA glass, mirror and multi-surface cleaner. The cleaning system’s tools include the PACETM/MC microfiber floor-care system and MicroQuickTM/MC microfiber cloths. The Healthy High Performance Cleaning Guide provides users with the proper procedures. These products, procedures and tools, when used together following the methods outlined in JohnsonDiversey’s Healthy High Performance Cleaning Guide, make up the cleaning system that GREENGUARD certified. The certification process includes a review of the product’s manufacturing processes, profile testing on each of the finished products individually, and rigorous air testing during use of the entire cleaning system. The unique approach of testing the IAQ during application of multiple products while following Healthy High Performance Cleaning Guide produces data that is then compared to GREENGUARD Children and Schools criteria. The average person spends more than 90 percent of their time indoors. Poor IAQ can cause asthma and other allergies, which can result in lost productivity costs estimated at more than $120 billion annually. The mission of the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute, the organization that oversees the certification program, is to improve public health and quality of life through programs that improve indoor air. To maintain this certification, JohnsonDiversey will have to submit their products for re-testing once a year. Finally, JohnsonDiversey will have to acknowledge any product or manufacturing changes made to their system and confirm the minimal impact on the environment. About GREENGUARD The GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification Program is an industry-independent, third-party testing program for low-emitting products and materials. The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute, which oversees GREENGUARD, was founded to establish a true third-party product certification program based on proven emissions standards and to provide specifying and procurement professionals with a resource for low emitting products. GREENGUARD Certification is a voluntary program available to all manufacturers and their suppliers.
