- New Resource Shows Legislators and Staffers Best Practices for Dealing with Common Spills and Stains
In recognition of National Laundry Day April 15, the American Cleaning Institute (ACI), the trade association for the U.S. cleaning product supply chain, shared a newly developed resource with congressional offices.
The Capitol Hill Stain Guide offers quick, science-based tips for addressing common office stains, from coffee to ink and food spills, designed for easy reference during a busy workday.
Celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2026, ACI serves as a resource to legislators on cleaning, hygiene and product safety issues, and regularly provides congressional offices with data-driven information and technical expertise related to cleaning and public health.
“ACI has shared information about the safe, proper and beneficial use of cleaning products for 100 years,” said Blake Nanney, ACI Director of Government Affairs. “We hope this fun, practical resource will keep cleaning top of mind and staffers one step ahead of stains.”
