Chemicals: Bus Riding Made Healthy

Company Website

Steve Edlund, manager of Coast Mountain Bus Company, is directly responsible for how the company’s hundreds of buses are cleaned and maintained every day.

Under his leadership and direction, the bus company decided it was time to start cleaning the busses with Green cleaning products.

Investigating the different Green product lines, he was impressed with one company - Enviro-Solutions -and specifically liked ES 71.

ES 71 is a unique surfactant blend with hydrogen peroxide to remove stains, soils, and odors from the seats, arm rests, and straps on busses as well as floors and carpets.  It has earned the Seal of Approval from the Carpet and Rug Institute and is also proven Green by Green Seal®.

“We find ES 71 leaves a nice finish on the [bus] floors and a pleasant, fresh scent after cleaning,” says Edlund. “We also use it to wipe down handrails and ‘high-touch’ areas throughout the bus.”
