Practice Greenhealth provides practical guidance, training, consultation, and business solutions to help its members in their efforts to implement environmentally responsible practices. More than 800 healthcare providers have joined Practice Greenhealth in the last year alone, indicating the growing commitment among the healthcare community to reduce its environmental impact.

"We are committed to reducing the carbon footprint of the cleaning industry," says Todd Schaeffer, vice president and general manager, Activeion Cleaning Solutions. "Our product, the Activeion Pro, uses a revolutionary technology that transforms tap water into a powerful, general-purpose cleaner, freeing the environment from harmful chemical-based cleaning products. It is ideal for use on surfaces including glass, stainless steel, carpet and natural stone. The Activeion Pro is helping cleaning professionals deliver a safer, greener, more profitable solution for their customers. For those who want to make a tangible difference in their approach to environmental stewardship, Activeion offers a true solution."

The Activeion Pro even sanitizes, when used as directed. Independent third-party certified lab testing shows the Activeion Pro provides for a clean and sanitary surface, with a greater than 99.9 percent reduction of organisms, including e-coli, staph, MRSA, listeria and salmonella from non-porous hard surfaces.

When compared to cleaning with traditional chemical detergents, the Activeion Pro delivers a greater than 97 percent benefit across seven key indicators tied to environmental sustainability. A study, coauthored by the University of Tennessee and EcoForm, concluded that converting to just one Activeion Pro for general-purpose cleaning in commercial applications is equivalent to saving 93 gallons of gasoline and two barrels of oil.
