What is a Green Cleaning
Product?
A sustainable cleaning product is one that performs
and has a reduced effect on environmental and human health when
compared with competing cleaning products that serve the same purpose.
Carroll Company believes that a sustainable community will use its
resources to meet current needs while ensuring adequate resources
are available for future generations. It is because of this commitment
that the ENVIRO PATROL® product line was created.
