Eco-conscious Device
Today, chemical-based systems carry
downstream consequences
-
Wastewater impacts matter beyond your facility
-
Chemical residues don’t disappear after use
-
Sustainability expectations now affect reputation and compliance
You want your space to be hygienic, but you don’t want your cleaning practices to contribute to environmental harm. Whether you’re operating a grooming van, stable, shelter, or clinic, what goes down the drain doesn’t stop there — it enters municipal wastewater systems and, ultimately, natural ecosystems.
Many conventional disinfectants rely on persistent chemicals that can be toxic to aquatic life, accumulate in the environment, or generate hazardous by-products. Even when used correctly, these substances may pose downstream ecological risks and contribute to long-term environmental burden.
How Clean Play Helps:
Eco-conscious Design
-
No chemical residues released into wastewater
-
No packaging waste from single-use chemical product
-
No persistent toxins entering the environment
​
The SaniChest’s cold plasma technology delivers high-efficacy sanitation without relying on chemical formulations that must be manufactured, transported, stored, and disposed of. This enables effective cleaning without introducing persistent or bioaccumulative substances into water systems or ecosystems.
Primary Use Case - Jordan
Competitive Equestrian
Jordan competes regularly on the national circuit, traveling between showgrounds, stables, and training facilities throughout the season. Between hauling horses, cleaning tack, and managing stabling at shared venues, Jordan is constantly sanitizing equipment, boots, grooming tools, and trailer spaces.
​
Jordan has some concerns about the volume of chemical disinfectants being used at events — especially knowing that runoff often goes straight into storm drains, soil, or nearby waterways at showgrounds. Jordan wants to maintain strict hygiene standards without contributing to environmental contamination or repeatedly handling, and disposing of, chemical products and plastic containers.
Industry Data & Operational Evidence
Disinfectants and cleaning products can enter wastewater and impact aquatic ecosystems.
Environmental agencies note that residues from cleaning chemicals can pass through wastewater treatment systems and affect aquatic organisms.
Many disinfectant ingredients are toxic to aquatic life.
Health Canada’s chemical risk assessments identify common biocidal ingredients as hazardous to fish and invertebrates, even at low concentrations.
Some cleaning chemicals are persistent and not easily broken down in the environment.
The Government of Canada recognizes that certain substances used in cleaning products can be environmentally persistent and bioaccumulative.
Packaging and chemical waste from cleaning products contribute to environmental footprint.
Environment and Climate Change Canada notes that single-use plastic packaging and chemical waste are significant contributors to pollution and landfill burden.
