What used to be a “novelty” is now becoming a standard of expectation for forward thinking, community‑minded businesses. The reasons are clear, and leadership, towns and cities are reshaping how facilities think about cleanliness, safety, sustainability and a healthy economy. Here are just a few reasons why.
1. Healthier Spaces for Employees, Clients, Kids and Families
