Case Study: Estée Lauder achieves LEED certification with GDI Ainsworth green facility maintenance

Estée Lauder meets 100% LEED green cleaning requirements with GDI Ainsworth

Estée Lauder required a cleaning partner capable of meeting the rigorous LEED certification requirements for its new, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Markham, Canada. The challenge for vendor GDI Ainsworth was to align all cleaning practices, chemicals, equipment, and training with these high environmental standards from the very first day of operations.

GDI Ainsworth implemented a comprehensive green program to meet all LEED criteria. The solution included introducing 100% green chemicals, deploying energy-efficient equipment, and establishing detailed green cleaning procedures. As a result, the facility met all LEED requirements, reinforced Estée Lauder's sustainability commitment, and enhanced the building's long-term performance through integrated energy conservation.
