Sustainable Cleaning Solutions: IPC by Tennant Company’s Commitment to Environmental Innovation

SPONSORED CONTENT

IPC by Tennant Company is working to reinvent the way the world cleans by embedding sustainability across our business while continuing to focus on developing innovative solutions that solve our customers’ biggest challenges. We offer numerous cleaning solutions to help our customers achieve their sustainability goals. Including electrically powered equipment, water-efficient products, and products that incorporate recycled materials. Tennant Company and our family of brands are committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. To reach net zero, we plan to make deep emissions cuts across our operations and value chain, including emissions from the use of our products. 

We’ve obtained certifications and labels to help customers identify these sustainable products to incorporate them into their cleaning programs and support their company’s sustainability goals. Certifications include ISO 14067- compliant carbon footprint analyses that measure greenhouse gas emissions throughout a product’s life cycle and REMADE in Italy® which quantifies the amount of recycled materials used in our products. Product labels include the EU Ecolabel, which recognizes products with reduced environmental impact throughout their life cycle while maintaining high-performance standards. Additionally, our registered trademark, Black is Green™, identifies the usage and the amount of recycled plastic in our vacuums and cleaning tools products. The amount of recycled plastic used for IPC cleaning tools varies from 15% to 100%. We are also excited to announce the upcoming launch of our latest innovation: to meet the demand for sustainable recycled products in lighter shades, we will introduce light grey recycled plastic options in our Brix School, Brix PT, and PT range. This addresses the market’s need for eco-friendly materials in brighter hues, suitable for spaces where darker colours may not be suitable.

On the product side we are introducing EKOS: the new smart, safe and environmentally friendly instant saturation system recently launched on the market. Its precision-designed nozzles minimize detergent waste by saturating only necessary cloths when needed, eliminating unnecessary expenses, and reducing environmental impact. EKOS embodies a sustainable approach to cleaning, offering companies a cost-effective solution and minimizing environmental impact.
