Core Principles and Guiding Beliefs The Carolina Green Company is an environmentally friendly cleaning service. We place a high priority on providing our clients with the highest quality of service while doing our share to preserve the planet. Our most precious resource is the planet we inhabit, and being good citizens of the earth is the centerpiece of our business.
The Carolina Green Company realizes that our well-being is highly dependent on our natural resources and the benefits it provides, such as living spaces, food, and drinkable water. However, our society has had a tremendous impact on the environment. Because of this impact, our staff is committed to limiting harmful toxins on the environment by committing itself to business practices which will have a positive, and lasting impact on our world. It is our company’s dogma that every consideration in the application of our practices should always conserve our natural resources, and ensure that they are reused rather than depleted. Carolina Green Company is committed to using ONLY cleaning products which are harnessed from natural resources.
Core principles:
As the world turns, we are now going green. What exactly is ‘going green’? Well, it is green living! Also known as reducing your carbon footprint. Which means, reducing the negative impact you personally create upon the earth. The average household contributes approximately 18-25% of the environments eco-hazards. What is not widely known, is that our residential and commercial buildings trap and recycle potentially harmful chemicals called VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds). In addition, what is usually unnoticed is that common household products when not being used will emit these compounds causing mild to serious breathing difficulties.
Carolina Green Copany has made a conscience choice to refuse products that include phosphates (which can cause harmful algal blooms) and bleach, a lung irritant. We are also vigilant about never using products listed as petroleum based (for obvious, oil-related reasons).

The Carolina Green Company is not the typical cleaning service. Our staff will not only provide you and your family with a healthier environment, they will inform you on the benefits of using eco-friendly products. These dedicated professionals will also provide you with household energy saving tips. The natural way.
We are committed to partnering in community events which promote environmentally friendly principles. Upon request, members of our staff will conduct classes to individuals, businesses, and organizations on being environmentally conscience.
Our Products:
It may come as a surprise to you, but your home and office could be making you sick! The household products you use on a daily basis contain potentially harmful chemicals. Most of these household products like cleaners and pesticides contain Persistent Organic Pollutant (POP’s). This strain of chemical takes on many different environmental hazards:
-
Persist in the environment
-
builds up in the food
-
capable of traveling in our atmosphere and waters
-
linked to serious health side effect such as hormonal neurological disorders.
The common misnomer is that if you can smell the cleaning product then the house is clean! Not so, if you smell these products it usually means your breathing toxins. These vapors are emitted in the air of our home and work. As stated earlier VOCs come in many different forms such as household cleaners, perfumes, and scented candles. By reducing your use of these potentially harmful products in your home and office greatly decreases your chances of respiratory illnesses.
Carolina Green Co. was founded on the premise of keeping your home and business clean and safe the natural way. We are the earth conscience company.
