How SMART leads the industry in green practices

CHEMICALS

Non-toxic: The primary chemical used in the Soil Transfer process, EC-64 Electro-Static Extraction Cleaner, is non-toxic to humans and aquatic life. No petroleum solvents or phosphates used.  PH neutral.

Minimal Amount Used:  SMART uses only 4 ounces of its propietary static-attraction product to clean 1000 sq. ft. of carpet. No concentrated pre-sprays are ever used, thus minimizing residues in the carpet.

Biodegradable: Our primay spotter product, Motsenbocker’s Lift Off, is Green Cross Certified and biodegrades into carbon dioxide, water, and simple minerals.

WATER USE

Water Conservation:  25 Gallons with traditional carpet cleaning method (per 1000 sq ft)
2 Gallons with SMART

Cleaner Environment:  No discharge of dirty waste water into the environment.

ENERGY USE

Energy savings:  No need to turn on heaters, open windows, or use ventilation systems to dry out the carpet.  Carpet’s are dry using SMART within 30 minutes with windows closed.

Fuel Savings:  SMART’S service vehicles use about 30% less fuel that the average industry service vehicle. In addition no fuel such as propane or kerosene is required in our process to run equipment. Our equipment uses only electricity.

RECYCLE

Landfill Waste Reduced:  SMART uses high concentrates.  This saves on packaging material, saves on shipping fuel, and requires less storage space and produces less solid waste in landfills.

Carpet Replacement Rate Reduced:  Rather than replacing “Trashed out” carpet, SMART’s process can often restore the carpet and therefore reduce the consumption rate of carpet.  And because the cleaning process never gets the backing of the carpet, or pad and subfloor wet, carpet life is extended.

Indoor Air Quality Impact:  High indoor humidity creates an environment for molds, mildew, and bacteria to grow.  SMART’s ultra low moisture process completely eliminates this concern.
