3. Program Purpose
School program designed for environmental safety for future generations
Unimaginable savings in labor, chemical, energy, time.
Provides administrators with the ability to maintain budgets by accurately comprehending the total costs of building maintenance
Clear breakdown of exactly how much chemical is needed to strip and recoat
Exact parameters provided in helping maintain brilliancy of the floors for years to come.
Source reduction in communities is a priority

4. 3 Levels of Green
1. Political correctness (Products with a green seal certification) 2. Addressing levels of VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) 3. Chemical Source Reduction

5. Features and Benefits
Efficiency – improves productivity, reduces supply and cost of operations
Environment – source reduction, non-styrene, green eco-logo certified product
Social (community) – true in pride in facility, improves student attendance, provides clean, healthy, comfortable learning environment,

7. Program History First was established 17 years ago in 1999
Most successful program with over 300 active school districts
Our program has been validated by Frederick County Schools in Frederick, Maryland being awarded the EPA IAQ 2010 award
Our customer base can prove to you the advantages and benefits of the program

8. The Conventional:
Styrenated Floor Finish

10. Conventional vs. Ultra Technology
Conventional – requires repeated stripping cycles
To be effective, it utilizes caustic chemicals that can harm the environment and the building occupants
Unpredictable product and supply costs
Requires excessive maintenance and labor costs.
Requires more chemicals to clean and maintain the facility
Over a year, a conventional school discards up to a ton of chemical sludge that is dumped back into the environment

11. Source Reduction Calculator
(Sq Ft.) x (Number of coats) = (Sq Ft. finish to be stripped) / (2000 feet per gallon) = (Number of gallons used)   (Number of gallons used) x 11.3 pounds per gallon of sludge = (pounds) / (2000) = (Number of tons)
Conventional Elementary School Square Foot Size: sq. ft
Average Amount of Coats of Floor Finish Per School: 5 Coats
Total Amount of Sludge Generated from one Average Elementary School: 700lbs
0.7 tons of Sludge x (number of schools in your district) = Amount of Sludge dumped into the environment
(These numbers have been acquired from National Averages of school system facilities.)   11.3 pounds of sludge represents the average weight of stripper and old floor finish removed from the floor, and put into a gallon container.  This sludge contains many chemical components that are not biodegradable, including VOC's, styrene, urethanes, caustics, zinc and numerous other hazardous chemicals.  The above formulation will help you understand your impact on the environment when discarding in drop sinks, parking lots, storm drains and the grass.   Copyright sfocht 2016

12. Conventional vs. Ultra Technology
Reduces or Eliminates the stripping cycle
Is effective and requires no dwelling time/able to strip floors immediately/Green Seal certified
Fixed cost of product and supplies
Easy to maintain and reduces labor costs
Requires more chemicals to clean and maintain the facility
Requires minimum chemical to clean and maintain the facility (3 products)
Eliminates source/chemical sludge from being discarded into the environment
