Service by Medallion Honored with 2023 BSCAI Cleaning for Health Award

The Building Service Contractors Association International (BSCAI) 2023 Cleaning for Health Award presented by ProTeam^® was awarded to Service by Medallion at the Contracting Success Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada last November.

Keeping the focus on health

Each year, the Cleaning for Health Award honors a BSCAI member with the best cleaning service policies, procedures, and training programs that emphasize the health of building occupants. The participating commercial cleaning companies are judged by an independent panel of five industry experts. The judges review each applicant’s commitment to deploying programs that help reduce allergens and asthma triggers in the indoor environment.

This is the second time Service by Medallion has won the Cleaning for Health Award. “Winning this award twice takes tremendous dedication,” said Jeff Stone, National Sales Manager at ProTeam. “It demonstrates Service by Medallion’s strong commitment to commercial cleaning, reducing building contaminants, and minimizing environmental impacts.”

Cleaning to higher standards

For the last several years, Service by Medallion has utilized a couple hundred ProTeam units, including the Super Coach Pro^® 6- and 10-qt backpack vacuums and ProForce 1500XP upright vacuums. For several years, the company has relied on ProTeam’s advanced, multi-layer filtration system to exceed its clients’ clean air expectations.

ProTeam’s multi-layer system, also recognized as its ProLevel Filtration^® System, is a hallmark of all the organization’s units. Elias Nacif, Executive Vice President, Service by Medallion, emphasizes the significance filtration plays within the company. Its commitment to proper filtration and healthy indoor air quality (IAQ) has led to multiple awards and the implementation of new cleaning programs.

In addition to ProTeam’s advanced filtration system, Service by Medallion values the units’ strong suction, versatility and durability. “We use our ProTeam units for most vacuuming purposes, from daily vacuuming needs to specialized cleaning projects depending on the needs of our customers,” said Nacif.

Innovative OPTIHEALTH program

In winning the 2023 Cleaning for Health Award, Service by Medallion was recognized by the BSCAI for its emphasis on clean, healthy indoor environments and its innovative OPTIHEALTH program. “OPTIHEALTH is a proven ecosystem that has helped our customers achieve high standards of indoor environmental quality,” said Roland Strick, President of Service by Medallion. “We are honored that the OPTIHEALTH advanced cleaning ecosystem has been recognized at the highest level in the industry.”

Deployed at Fortune 500 workplaces across multiple environments, Service by Medallion’s OPTIHEALTH program encompasses sophisticated ProTeam vacuum technology, disinfecting, IAQ monitoring, environmentally responsible cleaning products, and extensive employee safety training.
