PlanetClean Company Profile

How clean is really clean? What is clean? How much will my cleaning have an effect on the environment?

PlanetClean has been around 25 years, answering these and millions of other inquiries throughout Vancouver Island. Gone are the days that “more” meant “improved”. The unfortunate result from this overindulgence has seen our planet suffer greatly this past century. There are now phosphates and harsh chemicals polluting our air and water systems, affecting animal, marine and plant life throughout. We all need to take action to protect our planet. The specialists atPlanetClean’ (formally Janitors’ Warehouse) take this situation seriously and have risen to the challenge of seeking natural but effective cleaning products.

Gone are the days when “Environmentally Safe” or “Recycled”, meant an inferior product and at a higher price. Environmental choices have reached a point of improved cleaning while standard cleaners have remained just that – standard, with little or no improvements. Being a local producer as well as a supplier of cleaning, sanitizing and floor care maintenance products, we are able to keep the environment in check every step of the way, essentially saving you money. We manufacture and import products that we know work as well or better than others, save the environment and save both business and retail consumers money, through deletion of “middleman costs”. We reduce emissions by transporting shorter distances from our local production facilities to you.
