Market Segments
2
Selling to Education
K-12, Universities, Community Colleges, Public
Schools, Private Schools
  • Specific Challenges
  • Absenteeism
  • Green cleaning mandates
  • Health and safety for staff and students
  • Indoor air quality (asthma)
  • Chemical residue on surfaces
  • Acute toxicity (i.e. eye or skin irritation)
  • Allergic reactions
  • Budget crunches
  • Training
  • Public bid process

3
Absenteeism
  • Challenge
  • The state pays the school for every student that
    attends a full day. (This only counts for state
    schools, not private)
  • When students are sick, it means less money for
    the school.
  • Private schools generally must work harder to
    keep parents (their source of revenue) happy.
    Minimizing the frequency of illness is a great
    way to keep parents happy.

4
Absenteeism
  • Solution
  • EnvirOx H2Orange2 117 118
  • EPA registered sanitizer, virucide, HBV.
  • Track record for reducing absenteeism in schools!
  • Clean, residue-free surfaces result in less
    transfer of bacteria and viruses from student to
    student.
  • Cleaners wont hurt the students so you can put a
    Red Bottle in Every Classroom! (see document in
    the EnvirOx Sales Training CD)
  • Cleaners wont add toxins to the school
    environment, minimizing negative effect on
    childrens health. Healthier kids stronger
    immune systems and fewer sick days!

NOTE Public school absenteeism stats are often
posted online. Typically anything under 90 is
bad. EPA Registered to kill Herpes Simplex
Virus Type 2, Influenza A2/Japan, HBV
(Hepatitis B Virus) and HIV-1 (Human
Immunodeficiency Virus). Except in California.
5
Green Cleaning State Mandates
  • Challenge
  • Many states now mandate that public schools use
    Green Seal or Eco-Logo certified products to
    clean their facilities.
  • Solution
  • Lead with H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 and 118
  • Documented health and environmental profile for
    human and environmental safety (note that EPA
    registered products cannot be Green Seal or
    Eco-Logo certified).
  • If they are not allowed an exception for EPA
    Registered products and they MUST clean with a
    Green Seal or EcoLogo certified product turn to
    EnvirOx support products for Green Seal and
    EcoLogo certified options.

6
Health and Safety
  • Challenge
  • Increasing numbers of children and adults are
    sensitive to chemical toxicity and fumes.
  • Having chemicals that can harm skin or eyes
    around children is never good.
  • Parents are more focused on green and health
    initiatives in school.
  • Solution
  • EnvirOx cleaners will not damage humans, animals,
    the environment or any water-safe surface.
  • No asthmagens or carcinogens.
  • Keep a red bottle of 118 or 117 in every
    classroom, to safely wipe off desks in between
    classes reduce disease transfer opportunities,
    without exposing students to unnecessary health
    risks!

7
Budget Crunch
  • Challenge
  • Budgets are tight in state schools.
  • Understanding what the school needs is vital to
    offering them the right solution and demonstrates
    how value, simplicity and versatility can save
    them money.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Cleaning System customers save money
    because
  • Reduce number of products purchased.
  • No cleaning chemical related workers comp
    claims.
  • No facility damage.
  • Improved attendance.
  • Time and efficiency gains due to simplicity of
    the system.
  • Cleaning tools last longer not clogged with
    soap or broken down by harsh chemicals.

8
Training
  • Challenge
  • Changing to a new cleaning protocol.
  • Custodial staff turn over.
  • Training time.
  • Language barriers.
  • Solution
  • Extremely simple system. If someone misuses a
    product, it wont hurt anything or anyone!
    (Mineral Shock excluded. If it isnt rinsed it
    may harm a surface).
  • Your direct attention and in-service training for
    the custodial staff.
  • EnvirOx Training DVD (English and Spanish).
  • Wall charts (color coded and numbered).

9
School Bid Process
  • The best way for a distributor to have success in
    obtaining a schools business is to work with the
    school prior to the bid being opened to the
    public.
  • It is also important to have the custodial
    decision makers get feedback from their team on
    how EnvirOx products are meeting their needs
    (through a trial being set up with the school).
  • Key areas to review and be aware of regarding
    bids
  • Bid deadline date ensure that the bid is
    completed at a minimum of one week prior to the
    bid deadline, two weeks prior is ideal.
  • Instructions to bidders this section will
    outline specifications for the bid such as
    certain types of chemical (Green Seal certified,
    etc.), quantities, pricing, freight
    responsibility, delivery and billing
    requirements, etc.
  • Insurance Typically an Insurance Liability
    Certificate naming the school entity as insured
    will need to be provided.
  • State requirements there are sometimes
    requirements of the bid that the bidder be
    authorized with the State Department to be able
    to bid. There should be a website or contact
    within the bid on how to get started with the
    state to meet this requirement.

10
School Bid Process
  • Challenge
  • The chemical specified in the bid does not match
    an EnvirOx chemical.
  • Solution
  • There are general chemical specifications that
    EnvirOx will be able to meet. Engage the EnvirOx
    Customer Relations to help identify which
    chemical will be the closest match. This is also
    a situation that would be easily remedied by
    working with the school prior to the bid. If the
    school likes EnvirOx, they will spec their bid
    with EnvirOx chemical specifications. We also
    have canned bid specs for most of our
    chemicals, which can be shared with the school.

11
School Bid Process
  • Challenge
  • The bid requires an end-use cost for the chemical
    and I dont know how to figure that out.
  • Solution
  • Located on the distributor section of the EnvirOx
    website, under the Competitor Information tab is
    an End Use Cost Calculator. Fill in how much you
    are going to charge per gallon of the chemical
    and it will calculate end-use cost for both
    quarts and gallons in both heavy and light-duty
    solutions.

12
School Bid Process
  • Challenge
  • You have never completed a bid and need some
    assistance.
  • Solution
  • EnvirOx is more than happy to assist distributors
    in completing a bid form. Contact Customer
    Relations at 800-281-9604 and we will meet your
    needs.

13
Selling to Healthcare
Long-term care, nursing homes, hospitals,
clinics, private doctors offices
  • Specific Challenges
  • Hospital Acquired Infections
  • Disconnection between Infection Control and
    Housekeeping
  • Health and safety for staff and patients
  • Training, custodial staff turn over
  • Laws
  • Regulations

14
Hospital Acquired Infections
  • Challenge
  • A hospital acquired infection is defined as
    infections not present and without evidence of
    incubation at the time of admission to a
    healthcare setting translated as, a resident
    acquires an infection which originated within the
    patient environment. HAIs are on the rise.
  • Solution
  • Confirmed cases of HAIs reported from a patient
    environment are now required to be reported
    monthly to their State Agencies. State and
    Federal Agencies are not required to reimburse
    the facility for the cost to abate HAI
    infections. As such, the cost for the facility to
    heal the residents is entirely on their profits,
    and adversely impacts the hospitals managed care
    budget.

15
Health Safety for Staff Patients
  • Challenges
  • Increasing numbers of children and adults are
    sensitive to chemical toxicity and fumes.
  • When cleaning staff use toxic cleaning and
    disinfecting chemicals it can increase their
    likelihood of getting sick or injured.
  • People with compromised immune systems can be
    more sensitive to chemicals and have additional
    reactions when exposed to fumes or residues.
  • Indoor air quality (asthma).
  • Acute toxicity (i.e. eye or skin irritation).
  • Allergic reactions.
  • Soil Loads/Residue on transfer points.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 or 118.

16
Training
  • Challenges
  • Training on a new cleaning protocol can be a
    challenge.
  • Custodial staff turn over and training new staff.
  • Training time.
  • Language and education barriers.
  • Solution
  • The H2Orange2 Cleaning system, complete with
    bi-lingual DVDs, wall charts and custom training
    tools.

17
Government Initiatives/Acts/Programs
  • Challenges
  • ARRA (American Reinvestment Recovery Act)
  • Preventing HAIs will be the key to hospital cost
    control. Government-sponsored initiatives from
    health insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) to grants
    will take into account HAIs when determining the
    allocation of funding and insurance payout versus
    confirmed cases.
  • Act 52 (PA only)
  • Act 52 of 2007 requires certain healthcare
    facilities in Pennsylvania to report healthcare
    associated infections (HAIs) to the Pennsylvania
    Department of Health, the Pennsylvania Healthcare
    Cost Containment Council and the Pennsylvania
    Patient Safety Authority through the Centers for
    Disease Control (CDC) and Preventions National
    Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN). The act is
    part of Governor Rendells Prescription for
    Pennsylvania plan to reduce and eliminate
    healthcare associated infections (HAIs).

18
Government Initiatives/Acts/Programs
  • Challenges
  • Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Plan Report to
    Congress
  • Government program that requires healthcare
    facilities to report performance on many levels
    to receive payment for Medicare and Medicaid
    patients. This includes the determination of
    thresholds or improvements in quality that would
    substantiate a payment adjustment, the size of
    such payments, and the source of funding for the
    value-based payments.
  • I have to have a disinfectant for x, y, z
    reason.
  • The CDC sets guidelines for cleaning and
    disinfecting in healthcare settings.
  • Results are the most important factor.
  • The way disinfectants are generally utilized in
    healthcare facilities isnt working. This is
    clear because HAIs are on the rise.

19
Why EnvirOx is the Solution
The solution is in the EnvirOx patented
stabilized hydrogen peroxide technology.
EnvirOxs stabilized hydrogen peroxide cleaning
technology cleans without leaving behind a sticky
residue. Sticky soap residues contribute to
bio-film. Conventional cleaning technology
(a.k.a. detergents/disinfectants) often leave
behind sticky residues. Bacteria within
bio-films are up to 1,000 times more resistant to
antimicrobials than are the same bacteria in
suspension. -Center for Disease Control and
Prevention lthttp//www.cdc.gov/hicpac/Disinfection
_Sterilization/4_0efficacyDS.htmlgt With
EnvirOx, a truly clean surface is the outcome
every time you clean. This is the simple and
effective power of EnvirOx stabilized hydrogen
peroxide technology. H2Orange2 Concentrate 117
and Concentrate 118 are the answer.
20
Providing a fail-safe Solution
Hospital acquired infections (HAIs) are on the
rise. Conventional cleaning and disinfection
practices are clearly not working and are not
realistic. Old technologies have healthcare
facilities trapped in a cycle that kills bacteria
and viruses, and also promotes the spread by
leaving a bio-film of residue after every use.
The impracticality of the 10 minute sit time
before wiping Q How often does the custodian
have time to properly clean a contact surface
using this process? 1. Spray and wipe
surface. 2. Spray with a disinfectant. 3. Wait
5 -10 minutes for the full kill claims. 4. Wipe
the surface. A NEVER. Even if this process
happened perfectly every time, surfaces would
still be left with residue from the cleaners and
disinfectants, contributing to a dirty surface.
Additionally, if a person coughed on these
surfaces after the above mentioned procedure, we
are back to square one.
21
Selling to Building Service Contractors
  • Specific Challenges
  • Superior and competitive cleaning results.
  • Green cleaning demand.
  • Health and safety for staff.
  • Indoor air quality (asthma).
  • Chemical residue on surfaces.
  • Acute toxicity (i.e. eye or skin irritation).
  • Allergic reactions.
  • Facility focus on germ reduction, super bugs,
    flu season.
  • Training, staff turn over.
  • Procurement, warehousing, SKUs

22
Superior Competitive Cleaning Results
  • Challenges
  • A BSCs ability to keep clients and generate more
    business is based on cleaning results. Aesthetic
    appeal of the BSC customers facility is
    extremely important, i.e. spotless carpets, clean
    grout, odor-free restrooms, streak-free mirrors,
    windows, etc.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 or 118 one product at
    two dilutions
  • Streak-free windows.
  • Carpet spotting and extraction.
  • Grout renovation.
  • Odor destruction.
  • No facility damage.
  • All in all high performance cleaning results.

23
Green Cleaning Demand
  • Challenges
  • A BSC that provides green solutions has the
    edge over the competition. Most facilities of all
    types want to promote the green initiatives
    that are being implemented. A BSC that cleans
    with green technology will generate more new
    business.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 and 118 have a health
    and safety profile that meets and exceeds green
    standards. While EPA registered products are not
    legally permitted by the EPA to have a third
    party green certification, it is easy to
    provide information to customers outlining the
    environmentally preferable profile of the
    H2Orange2 Cleaning System.
  • If an EcoLogo or Green Seal Certification is
    required, EvolveO2 is also a powerful option.

24
Health Safety
  • Challenges
  • Increasing numbers of children and adults are
    sensitive to chemical toxicity and fumes.
  • Having chemicals that can damage skin or eyes is
    a liability to staff and occupants.
  • Solution
  • EnvirOx hydrogen peroxide cleaners will not harm
    humans, animals, the environment or any
    water-safe surface.
  • Do not contain asthmagens or carcinogens

25
Facility Focus on Germ Reduction
  • Challenges
  • Offices, schools, healthcare, and everyone else
    is focused on killing germs and stopping the
    spread of illness.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 or 118
  • EPA registered sanitizer, virucide, HBV.
  • Red heavy-duty solution is EPA registered to kill
    99.99 of common bacteria (Staph, Salmonella,
    Strep, and E-Coli) and specified viruses (Herpes
    2, Influenza A2/Japan, and HIV-1) in addition to
    Hepatitis B.
  • Even green light-duty solution has a kill claim
    for HIV-1.

EPA Registered to kill Herpes Simplex Virus
Type 2, Influenza A2/Japan, HBV (Hepatitis B
Virus) and HIV-1 (Human Immunodeficiency
Virus). Except in California.

  • Training time.
  • Language barriers.
  • Solution
  • Your direct attention and in-service training for
    the custodial staff.
  • EnvirOx Training DVD (English and Spanish).
  • Wall charts (color coded and numbered).
  • Extremely simple system and if someone misuses a
    product, it wont hurt anything or anyone!

27
Procurement, Warehousing, SKUs
  • Challenges
  • A BSC may have limited warehouse space and will
    save money if they can reduce SKUs and simplify
    their cleaning chemical purchasing.
  • Solution
  • H2Orange2 Concentrate 117 or 118 one product at
    two dilutions 95 of a facilitys general
    cleaning.
