Blendco Announces “Cleaner and Greener”TM
Certification for Carwashes
Bristol, Pennsylvania - Blendco is pleased to announce a program for operators to distinguish
their washes as “Cleaner and Greener”™ certified locations. This new program reflects
stewardship towards the environment that goes beyond chemicals alone and will include water
management and water reclaim, use of renewable materials, energy savings, package recycling,
and employee safety and training. Interested carwash operators will work together with a
qualified Blendco representative to ensure that the wash meets a range of standards reflecting
environmental sustainability.
For each Cleaner and Greener™ Certified Location, Blendco will provide marketing and promotional
materials which will clearly communicate that the carwash location meets the program’s
stringent environmental criteria. “With the Cleaner and Greener™ program, carwashes
can show consumers that if they wish to patronize a wash that is actively working to conserve
natural resources, they should wash there”, comments Mark Weiss, Blendco Senior Chemist.
Blendco’s Commitment: Environmental Sustainability

and socially sound.” In support of the Cleaner and GreenerTM program, Blendco
