What Are Eco Pods? A Smarter, Simpler Approach to Cleaning

Facilities are under increasing pressure to clean effectively while reducing waste, simplifying processes, and supporting sustainability initiatives.

Eco Pods are Buckeye’s compact, dissolvable cleaning pods designed to simplify dilution, support sustainability goals, and deliver reliable cleaning performance without the need for dilution systems or ongoing maintenance.

What Are Eco Pods?

Eco Pods are pre-measured, water-soluble pods that dissolve quickly. Each pod is formulated to deliver precise dilution every time, eliminating guesswork, and wasted product.

Because Eco Pods don’t rely on pumps, proportioners, or equipment, they’re easy to implement across a wide range of facilities from smaller locations to retail locations looking for a more flexible cleaning solution.

Why Eco Pods Exist

Traditional cleaning programs often rely on bulky packaging, dilution setups, and complicated systems that require maintenance and training. Eco Pods were developed to address those challenges while maintaining the cleaning performance facilities expect and assist smaller facilities that do not have room for large systems.

With Eco Pods, facilities can:

Achieve consistent dilution without systems or equipment

Reduce chemical overuse and waste

Simplify training for staff

Minimize storage space and packaging

The result is a simple approach to cleaning that’s easier to manage and maintain.

Designed with Sustainability in Mind

Eco Pods support sustainability initiatives by reducing packaging, storage, and plastic waste. Instead of multiple ready-to-use bottles or large containers, facilities can store compact pods that dissolve completely during use in re-usable bottles.

One case of quart pods can replace 96 ready-to-use quarts, reducing packaging by up to 98%.

One case of mop pods yields 200 gallons of diluted cleaner, helping facilities reduce the number of products they order, store, and dispose of.

Eco Pods also help prevent overuse of chemistry by delivering precise, pre-measured doses every time, supporting both environmental responsibility and cost control.

Simple by Design

Eco Pods were created to make cleaning easier for staff at every level.

Because the process is simple and repeatable, facilities can maintain consistent cleaning standards while reducing training time and complexity.

Made in the USA

Eco Pods are also made exclusively in the USA and produced to meet Buckeye’s high standards for quality, consistency, and performance. This ensures every pod delivers dependable results facilities can count on, while also reducing supply chain delays.

A Step Toward Smarter Cleaning

Eco Pods not only help meet sustainability goals, they’re efficient, consistent, and easy to use. By combining compact design, precise dilution, and reliable performance, Eco Pods offer facilities a practical way to simplify cleaning while supporting environmental goals.

What Has Buckeye Done to Reduce Supply Chain Disruptions?

What Has Buckeye Done to Reduce Supply Chain Disruptions?

In recent years, many manufacturers have struggled with shipping delays and other supply chain disruptions. The COVID-19 pandemic has forced companies to reevaluate the demand for products that have become essential in the workplace. When products like hand sanitizer, disinfectants, and personal protective equipment are in high demand, finding a supplier who can provide essential products at a moment’s notice is imperative.

Buckeye manufactures products in the USA to greatly reduce supply chain issues and ensure you have access to essential products when they are needed. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we worked with customers to provide what they needed to protect their staff, customers, and visitors.

Why Manufacture in the US?

No Supply Delay

Products that are manufactured overseas are more likely to experience shipping delays and supply chain disruptions. Because we manufacture in the US, our products are closer to their final destination and less likely to be impacted by widespread shipping and supply delays.

Quality of Goods

Manufacturing facilities in the US are regulated by US institutions that ensure proper working environments and quality of goods.

Sustainability

Shipping products worldwide burns more fossil fuels during transportation. Our customers reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing products that don’t travel as far.

Working with You

We recognize that all facility types have different needs. Each Buckeye program is customizable and our representatives work with our customers to find the products that work for them.
