Green Cleaning at Unity College

Getting Started - Prevent Dirt Build-Up

Consider Using The Andersen Company Floor Mat/3-Part System

• Exterior Scraper Mat 
  Place outside doorways covered by overhang
  Loosens dirt on students' shoes
  
• Interior Waterhog Mat
  Place inside doorways
  Catches loosened dirt, water or melting snow
  
• Interior Finish Mat
  Pick's off lingering dirt and mud and drys bottoms of shoes 

"Unity's partnership with Andersen shows how a business can green their building care practices while also "greening" their bottom line through more efficient use of human resources and product needs. We're pleased to know that working with Andersen allows us to live up to our role as America's Environmental College." - Amy Knisley, Sr VP for Academic Affairs, Unity College
