Benefits of the eco-friendly professional glass cleaner

Eco Glass offers measurable advantages over a conventional glass cleaner as a certified eco-friendly cleaning product:

  • Ammonia-free — formula with mild bamboo and lemongrass fragrance, suitable for use in the presence of staff and customers.
  • With biodegradable GLDA instead of EDTA — natural chelating agent derived from amino acids, compliant with European detergent regulations.
  • Superior biodegradability of surfactants according to EU Ecolabel criteria, exceeding what is required of conventional professional cleaning products.
  • Phosphate-free, NTA-free and free of other additives restricted by European regulations.
  • No rinsing required — saves time in glass cleaning and reduces water consumption in daily operations.
  • Verifiable in sustainability audits and green public procurement (Law 9/2017).
  • Cleaning efficacy equivalent to the best traditional glass cleaner on grease, dust, fingerprints and mineral deposits, even for cleaning heavily soiled glass.
  • Recyclable packaging with controlled dosage to reduce consumption.

Applications of the professional glass cleaner

Eco Glass is formulated for intensive use in professional environments as a multi-purpose surface cleaner. Its usual applications include:

  • HoReCa and food service: ideal as a window cleaner and for glass cleaning on refrigerated display cases, bathroom mirrors, stainless steel fronts of ovens and extractor hoods, and appliance housings.
  • Hotels: window cleaner in rooms, mirrors, enamelled furniture and minibar display cases.
  • Offices and corporate buildings: large glazed surfaces, glass partitions, non-touch screens and glass tables, with the performance of a glass cleaner for high-traffic environments.
  • Clinics and healthcare facilities: vitrified surfaces, instrument display cases and windows in non-sterile areas — professional cleaning without residue is critical in these environments.
  • Cleaning companies and facility management: multi-purpose cleaner that reduces the number of references in stock and simplifies protocols for glass cleaning at home and on a large scale.
  • Retail and commerce: shop windows, counters and glass displays with a finish free from marks and residues.

Frequently asked questions about Eco Glass

What is the difference between an eco-friendly glass cleaner and a conventional one?

An eco-friendly glass cleaner like Eco Glass meets verified European criteria for biodegradability, absence of restricted substances and VOC reduction. A conventional glass cleaner may be equally effective at cleaning, but does not verify these criteria and may contain solvents or surfactants with no environmental restrictions. For regulated sectors or green procurement tenders, the difference is decisive, as only the certified eco-friendly cleaning product can be verified in sustainability audits.

Is Eco Glass the best glass cleaner for intensive professional use?

Eco Glass is specifically formulated as a professional glass cleaner for intensive use in HoReCa, healthcare, offices and cleaning companies. Its EU Ecolabel certification makes it the best glass cleaner for environments that demand cleaning efficacy equivalent to conventional products and, furthermore, environmental accreditation verified by an independent body. Its yield of 250-300 m² per litre makes it particularly competitive for professional cleaning on a large scale.

Does Eco Glass leave residue on glass and mirrors?

No. The formula is designed not to leave visible residues or marks on mirrors or enamelled surfaces. As a window cleaner and glass cleaner, applied with a clean microfibre cloth, the finish is crystal clear and shiny. In very hard water, a second pass may be necessary, but the result is still residue-free.

Can it be used to clean windows on the outside and fixed glass panels?

Yes. Eco Glass is formulated to clean exterior windows and clean exterior fixed glass, where rinsing with water is not always possible. As a professional glass cleaner requiring no rinsing, simply spray, distribute with a microfibre cloth and wipe with a dry cloth for a residue-free finish. For façades or large-height surfaces, it is recommended to combine with a professional glass wetter and squeegee.

Is it suitable for HoReCa as a multi-purpose cleaner?

Yes. Eco Glass is one of the most widely used multi-purpose cleaners in the HoReCa sector due to its compatibility with common surfaces (stainless steel, enamel, glass, formica) and being a glass cleaner that meets sustainability criteria required by hotel chains and restaurant groups with ESG policies. It works as a divider cleaner, window cleaner and all-in-one glass cleaner, reducing stock references.

Is it suitable for public tenders with green criteria?

Yes. The EU Ecolabel certification of this professional glass cleaner is valid for public tenders with green procurement criteria (Royal Decree 6/2018 and Law 9/2017 on Public Sector Contracts) and for entities adhering to the Ecological Public Procurement Plan of the General State Administration. It is a reference among the professional cleaning products accepted by cleaning product companies and administrations with verified environmental requirements.

What solvents does Eco Glass use?

Eco Glass combines deionised water (>92%) as the main solvent with 6% ethanol (ethyl alcohol) which acts as a fast-evaporating solvent to achieve the characteristic mark-free drying. 1% MMB (3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butanol) acts as a co-solvent. It does not contain chlorinated solvents or aromatic petrochemical solvents.

Where can I purchase Eco Glass as a distributor or cleaning company?

Eco Glass is available through the network of authorised cleaning product distributors and specialist cleaning product companies in the professional channel. If you manage contracts for glass cleaning at home or facility management, you can request information on volume rates, technical datasheets and tender documentation directly through the contact form. As an EU Ecolabel certified professional glass cleaner, Eco Glass is approved for inclusion in green public procurement catalogues.
