Coverall Health-Based Cleaning System, a leading franchisor of commercial cleaning businesses, today announced a strategic alliance agreement with Ecolab Inc., a global leader in cleaning, sanitizing, food safety and infection prevention products and services. The agreement comes at a critical time, as businesses take steps to protect against the H1N1 virus and other germ-related illnesses.
Coverall conducted extensive evaluation and testing of numerous products and determined that Ecolab's products met or exceeded all of Coverall's stringent standards and systems. In addition to cleaning compounds, Coverall will exclusively offer Ecolab's comprehensive hand hygiene system to its franchisees, as well as specify the new Ecolab product line for its Touch-Free restroom cleaning protocol. Adding Ecolab's offerings to the Coverall selection of cleaning products now gives Coverall the ability to meet any of their franchisees' cleaning chemistry needs.
"Our Health-Based Cleaning System(SM) protocol is highly effective for killing germs and bacteria, removing soil and eliminating harmful pathogens," said Peter J. Sheldon, Vice President of Operations for Coverall. "With the addition of Ecolab's products and hand hygiene system, which greatly helps to minimize recontamination, our franchisees can now offer their customers a complete closed-loop solution that can save them money by reducing productivity loss due to employee sick time."
