Tackling Sick Building Syndrome with Natural-Based Cleaning Products from Culleoka Company

 Introduction

In today's fast-paced world, we spend a significant amount of time indoors, whether at work, school, or home. However, some buildings can cause occupants to experience a range of health issues collectively known as Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). While the causes of SBS are varied, one effective way to mitigate this syndrome is by using natural-based cleaning products, such as those offered by Culleoka Company. In this blog, we’ll explore the symptoms and causes of SBS and how Culleoka Company's products can help create healthier indoor environments.

Understanding Sick Building Syndrome

Sick Building Syndrome refers to a situation where building occupants experience acute health and comfort effects that appear to be linked directly to the time spent in the building. Symptoms often improve after leaving the building, suggesting a connection to indoor environmental quality. Common symptoms include:

• Respiratory Issues: Irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs, coughing, and wheezing.
• Eye Irritation: Red, itchy, or watery eyes.
• Skin Problems: Dry, itchy, or rash-prone skin.
• General Discomfort: Headaches, dizziness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and nausea.

These symptoms can significantly affect productivity and overall well-being, making it crucial to address the underlying causes of SBS.

Causes of Sick Building Syndrome

Several factors contribute to SBS, including:

• Inadequate Ventilation: Poor air circulation can lead to a build-up of pollutants.
• Chemical Contaminants: These can come from outdoor sources or indoor sources like adhesives, carpeting, upholstery, manufactured wood products, copy machines, pesticides, and cleaning agents.
• Biological Contaminants: Bacteria, molds, pollen, and viruses.
• Physical Factors: Poor lighting, excessive noise, and improper temperature control.

Among these, chemical contaminants from cleaning products are significant contributors to poor indoor air quality.

The Role of Cleaning Products in SBS

Traditional cleaning products often contain a mix of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), synthetic fragrances, and harsh chemicals. These substances can contribute to indoor air pollution and exacerbate SBS symptoms. Prolonged exposure to these chemicals can have detrimental effects on health, including respiratory problems, skin irritation, and more.
