Finalist! BAHBAs 2018 Best Green Business category
We’ve done it again! We’re finalists in the Brighton and Hove Business Awards for the best Green Business award.
We’ve been finalists at the BAHBAs several times, and it’s always a really fun award to be part of. Olga has already been down to the i360 to do a little bit of filming for our category which will be played on the evening of the award ceremony.
We’re thrilled, as always, to be recognised for our eco credentials. We’re up against two other wonderful businesses with fantastic environmental ethics, so wish us luck!
GDPR readiness
All businesses have had to reassess their privacy policies and procedures in line with the new GDPR regulations coming into force in May 2018.
Green Mop has always taken privacy and data security very seriously, so we didn’t have much work to do to ensure we are compliant. We did, however, have to document all that we do. And we added a few layers of security to our IT set up to ensure all was robust.
You can see our updated Privacy Policy here.
We also documented all the Technical Measures we have in place to protect customer and staff data, added a Data Retention Policy document, and our employee handbooks were updated and reissued.
As Green Mop Ltd is a B2B company, we were not sure if our customer data was subject to the new regulations as it is about personal data. We took a decision to apply the same policies and procedures to that information as we do to any other personal info. It’s best practice anyway to not hold any information that is no longer required, but it mainly limited to contact details.
2017 ISO audit – SUCCESS!
We’re delighted to have passed our 2017 ISO audit! We have achieved continued compliance for certification for:
BS EN ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System
BS EN ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System
BS OHSAS 18001:2007 Occupational Health and Safety System
Our new certificates can be viewed on our Credentials page.
The benefits of continued accreditation are enjoyed by all our customers. Any potential new customer can be reassured of our professional standards.
Thanks, as always, goes to the hard working team at Green Mop.
Christmas office hours
Our Green Moppers are working across the holiday period, some even on Christmas day! So spare a thought for those that don’t get any time off or prefer not to as they are away from their families.
The office will be closing at lunch time on 22 December. Between then and 2 Jan, we’ll be checking messages and emails regularly.
All back to normal from 2 January.
Merry Christmas!

Finalists! East Sussex Women in Business Awards – Medium Business Award
We were delighted to attend the East Sussex Women in Business Awards gala dinner on Friday evening.
Green Mop was a finalist in the Medium Business of the Year category. We did not win, but to be a finalist is a wonderful achievement for us, of which we are very proud.
Our Service Manager Olga Surduleac attended the event to represent Green Mop, along with her friend Aliona. Olga had a wonderful time and said, “It was great to meet so many interesting people celebrating successful business women. Their stories are inspiring.”
New consumables price list
We’ve updated our consumables price list. Take a look here. A couple of increased prices, but most prices remain the same. These are the most popular items, but we do a huge selection of office consumables. So if you don’t see it on the list, drop us a line and we can get you a price for most items.
We’re recruiting!
We need some more Green Moppers to join our team! We have early morning and weekend office cleaning shifts available for immediate start. We have work in Brighton and Hove mainly.
