Cleaning Sector doing its bit for the Environmental Agenda

Back in 2004, a plan was formed between the CSSA and White Young Green (WYG) to embed environmental management into the cleaning sector. The best way envisioned to do this was to utilise existing standards in the market place, such as ISO 14001, EMAS and BS 8555/Acorn, and to build a cleaning sector-specific support package around them.
