California Linen Services Receives TRSA Clean Green Certification

California Linen Services is proud to announce that it has received its TRSA Clean Green Certification for 2018 through 2021. Clean Green Certification recognizes companies that demonstrate responsible leadership in sustainability and conservation to protect the environment. Customers that use a Clean Green certified company like California Linen Services to supply, launder and maintain linens, uniforms, mats and other reusable textiles can be assured that their provider maximizes sustainable practices.

This certification acknowledges a textile service company’s continuing commitment to improving efficiencies in water and energy conservation and adoption of best management practices for reusing, reclaiming and recycling resources. To become certified, a laundry facility must meet water and energy conservation standards and deploy best management practices (BMPs). TRSA then inspects the facilities seeking the certification and approves documentation of their water and energy use and BMP deployment.

Laundries achieve Clean Green standards by using high-capacity washing, drying and wrinkle-removal equipment that improves their efficiency. To obtain the certification, laundries must document water and energy reduction and deploy best management practices including recovering heat from drained hot water and heat dispersed from the process of warming water, recapturing drained water from rinses for reuse, using environmentally friendly detergents, removing solids and liquids from wastewater, installing solar energy and energy-efficient lighting, recycling programs, re-routing trucks to save vehicle fuel and implementing preventative maintenance and spill prevention plans.

Is being environmentally-responsible important to your restaurants, bar, club, catering business or salon? If yes, then choose a Clean Green Certified commercial laundry like California Linen Services that cares about the environment as much as you do.
