Campus Cleaning Goes Green at Oklahoma City University

Friday, November 02, 2007

OKLAHOMA CITY— Oklahoma City University’s campus is clean and green this semester thanks to the new Green Seal Certified cleaning products utilized by campus custodians.

Green Seal is an independent organization that works to create a safer and healthier environment through testing and endorsing eco-friendly products.

The general cleaning products used at OCU are odorless, colorless, biodegradable, solvent free and they emit no Volatile Organic Compounds. The university has contracted with SSC Service Solutions to provide housekeeping for the campus. SSC Service Solutions was chosen based in part on its commitment to environmental issues.

“We looked for a company that would promote the health and well being of the entire campus population,” said Brian Holland, OCU’s chief financial officer. “Students, faculty and staff will benefit from improved indoor air quality.

We’ve found that SSC is excited to serve OCU and practice environmentally friendly measures. Those were vital elements for us to obtain the results we desired.”
