Steamericas Cites "5 Reasons Steam Cleaning Trumps Water" - A Must-Read for all Eco-Conscious Companies

In celebration of Energy Efficiency Day, Steamericas champions eco-friendly and effective cleaning solutions to use nature's resources efficiently.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Steamericas, an industry leader in advanced steam cleaning technology, outlines five compelling reasons why dry vapor steam cleaning is a more environmentally friendly alternative than traditional water-based methods. This list highlights the advantages of steam cleaning over traditional water approaches, focusing on efficiency, sanitation, and environmental impact.

As more sustainable cleaning solutions are required for the care of the environment, Steamericas emphasizes the unique benefits of steam cleaning not only for industrial use but also for car interiors and engines, boats, and RVs. This method has also shown high effectiveness in combating germs since dry vapor steam can deactivate most known microorganisms, including viruses, when exposed to temperatures over 80°C (175°F).

Steam has also revolutionized cleaning for wineries, craft breweries, food processing, restaurants, and distilleries.

    --  It helps keep pathogens at bay, since these microorganisms--including
        bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites--can pose significant health
        risks when they contaminate food or surfaces. In the context of food
        safety, pathogens are particularly alarming because they can lead to
        foodborne illnesses.
    --  It makes wineries more efficient with time and water usage because steam
        uses a fraction of the water during sanitation, creating less
        wastewater.
    --  While craft breweries often find themselves repairing barrels, steam
        offers an alternative to the typical way to refurbish barrels, saving
        95%-98% of water when using dry steam instead of water for
        'swelling'--or rehydrating--barrels.
    --  It can help with weed control to avoid harmful herbicides like Atrazine
        getting into groundwater.

Here are 5 Reasons Steam Cleaning Trumps Water:

    1. Water Savings: Steam cleaning utilizes significantly less water than
       conventional cleaning methods. Steamericas' flagship product, Optima
       Steamer conserves water using only 0.08 gal/min, a considerable reduction
       compared to the 5+ gallons utilized by pressure washers and parts
       washers. Industrial customers can benefit from overall savings of 10-30M
       gallons of water per Optima Steamer unit.
    2. Prevention of Wastewater Pollution: Studies from environmental
       organizations, including UN-Water, indicate that approximately 80% of
       wastewater worldwide is released into the environment without adequate
       treatment, affecting human health and ecosystems. With minimal water
       required for steam generation, there's virtually no wastewater runoff
       when using steam cleaning, safeguarding water sources from pollution.
       Users can comply with the Clean Water Act and avoid fines for breaking
       environmental regulations with wastewater.
    3. Labor & Efficiency Gains: Steam cleaning speeds up and makes cleaning
       tasks safer, reducing the risk of falls and slips due to excess water on
       the floor. Steamericas steamers also simplify cleaning with
       Clean-in-Place (CIP), reaching inaccessible areas without disassembling
       or requiring excessive effort. This results in significant labor savings
       and increases operational efficiency. Customers save an average of 2,000
       labor hours annually with the company's steam solutions.
    4. Chemical-Free Cleaning: This method relies solely on steam and eliminates
       the need for harsh chemicals such as Ozone and Varsol, fostering an
       optimal cleaning environment for people and the planet. Also, eliminating
       chemicals such as HVAC in cleaning processes of coils helps patients who
       are sensitive to post-clean odor of indoor air.
    5. Effective Germ and Virus Elimination: Steam cleaning kills 99.9% of
       pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, providing a
       superior level of sanitation that traditional water cleaning cannot
       match.

"I truly believe that steam cleaning can have a transformative impact on sustainability practices," said Yujin Anderson, CEO of Steamericas, adding, "When I started the operations of Steamericas in the US in 2010, I quickly realized that our steamers could be used in many industries beyond the car wash industry which is where we started, so we expanded into food & beverage manufacturing and HVAC industries. Power plants now use our steamers to maintain turbines, and nuclear plants use our technology to reduce radioactive wastewater during decontamination. Steam has the potential to become the future of effective and eco-friendly cleaning."

Steamericas technology saves over 2 million gallons of water annually, preventing wastewater generation and supporting environmental stewardship. Their products support Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals and are designed to impact the environment positively. Also, the company is WBENC certified, with DBE certification pending. It carries ASME-stamped products and holds numerous product certifications, including UL, CSA, SASO, and CE to support enterprise customers to be in compliance with labor laws.
