Entrepreneur Chooses Sustainable Cleaning Process Over Toxic Chemicals
Issues Cleaning with Chemicals
Even before Michigan’s Governor shut down the health clubs last May Natalie Erskine, owner of F45 Training facilities in Macomb and West Bloomfield, knew she already had a serious problem.
It was then the pandemic exploded, and just when the new business owner didn't think things could get any worse, Michigan's state government shut studios down, leaving Erskine to deal with a situation that did not appear to have a desirable outcome.
Says Natalie, “I mean, either we have a dirty studio, but an infected studio, or we have this chemical problem. When you’re working out, you’re often on the floor, and you're face-to-face with the floor cleaner. I just thought that was the lesser of two evils.”
Natural Cleaning Solution
It was about that time that Erskine was made aware of Tersano Inc’s Stabilized Aqueous Ozone (SAO) dispenser and the natural, sustainable, cleaning solution it produces onsite and on-demand, through a webinar produced by authorized SAO distributor Green Science Solutions.
F45's Results using SAO
Erskine purchased not one but two SAO Kit-4’s, one for each studio, and had them installed. She then gave her staff training on how to clean and sanitize with SAO, hoping they would like it as much as she did. But Natalie admits, she was not prepared for their reaction to it.
Results soon took away any of that disbelief, just like daily cleaning with SAO not only kept the Covid virus at bay, but it also eliminated that breathing problem that had been afflicting Natalie and her guests.
“It took us two months of cleaning the floor with nothing but the SAO before the soap stopped coming up out of the floor,” Says Erskine. “So, that is the chemical that people are putting their face on, putting their hands on, every single day when they were working out. And, it did not get to this point, but I can imagine that over a couple years of doing that the floors would be ruined.”
Like any business owner, Erskine was concerned about the effect cleaning with toxic chemicals was having on the equipment in her brand new facility, but her greater concern was for the health of her guests, and the employees who trust her to provide safe working conditions and a cleaning process that is sustainable, long-term.
More Sustainable Solutions
Natalie is so happy with SAO that she now also cleans her home with Tersano’s iClean Mini that she also purchased through Green Science Solutions. Erskine says it's not only allowed her to remove toxic chemicals from her home, but she also uses the SAO as a sanitizer, spraying it on the fruits and vegetables she feeds her family.
