Sustainable Practices

At Matrix, we believe that how a workplace is cleaned has a lasting impact; not just on the people who use it every day, but on the wider environment. Sustainable cleaning practices are no longer an optional extra for businesses; they’re an essential part of responsible facility management.

The Benefits for Your Business

Healthier Work Environment
Eco-friendly cleaning products improve indoor air quality and reduce exposure to allergens and irritants, helping employees stay healthier and more productive.

Cost Efficiency
Energy-efficient equipment, water-saving methods, and concentrated cleaning solutions often lead to lower running costs over time.

Stronger Brand Reputation
Clients and employees alike value companies that take sustainability seriously. Demonstrating your commitment through greener cleaning practices enhances your ESG credentials.

Compliance and Future-Readiness
With increasing regulations around waste management and environmental responsibility, sustainable cleaning ensures your business stays ahead of compliance requirements.

Why Sustainability Matters in Cleaning

Traditional cleaning methods often rely on harsh chemicals, excessive water use and single use plastics. While these methods are effective in the short term, these approaches can:

  • Release harmful toxins into the air and waterways

  • Contribute to unnecessary waste

  • Increase long term costs through inefficient practices

Our sustainable cleaning methods focus on reducing environmental impact while still maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and safety.

Our Approach to Sustainability

We are committed to providing cleaning solutions that balance effectiveness with responsibility. Our teams are fully trained in sustainable methods, ensuring every clean is both thorough and environmentally conscious. This includes:

  • Use of eco-certified cleaning products to protect both people and the planet

  • Microfibre cleaning systems that minimise chemical use and reduce water consumption

  • Energy-efficient equipment and scheduling practices designed to save resources and cut costs

  • Waste reduction initiatives, including responsible recycling and disposal

Every service is tailored to your workplace needs, ensuring you benefit from a spotless, safe environment that also aligns with your sustainability goals.

Efficiency drives waste reduction

We know that cleaning results ultimately matter most for our clients, but we also recognise the importance of efficiency, cost control, and sustainability. The challenge is to deliver outstanding cleaning standards without wasting time, energy, or resources. That’s why we invest in advanced technology designed to maximise water pressure, brush performance, and detergent levels for the best possible results.

Traditional machines may deliver a good clean but often consume unnecessary amounts of energy and materials. Our equipment, with built-in ECO features, is engineered to clean smarter. With Ecoflex and SmartFlow systems, water usage is reduced by up to 40% and detergent consumption by up to 60%, all without compromising quality.

In addition, our machines use up to 27% less energy than competitor models, while being durable, reliable, and easy to maintain. The result? Less downtime, lower operating costs, and significantly reduced waste.
