FAQs about EQp3 :

Our project’s custodial vendor is certified by the British Institute of Cleaning Science (BICS). Does this program qualify as a local equivalent for projects outside the U.S. (per Option 2)?

What if my project has rules or regulations that contradict the policy requirement, such as using bleach in a school or using abrasive cleaners in a healthcare environment?

Our project consists of a building with multiple tenants. The core areas are maintained by building management but the tenants are responsible for their own cleaning. Can I still achieve the prerequisite?

What happened to the green cleaning program credit?

I use a third-party-certified cleaning vendor. Which audits are required?

I came across a 2019 press release by Global GreenTag advising that the Global GreenTag PhD, Materials Transparency Certification Program is as of 2019 recognised by LEED and USGBC. Please can someone clarify if GreenTag PhD is an acceptable standard in lieu of Green Seal or UL Ecolabel standards. This question is raised as Global GreenTag are not listed as a member of the Global Ecolabelling Network on the GEN website.

Hi Jutta - it looks like GreenTag PHD addresses building materials typically purchased under the MR credit category, and not custodial cleaning products. I recommend posting your comment there to see if anyone has any info.
