About Emerald Ecovations
What Is Emerald Ecovations?
Emerald Ecovations is a New York-based leader in sustainable foodservice and janitorial supplies, on a mission to end deforestation and plastic pollution. With over 370 eco-friendly SKUs spanning paper goods, disposables, and packaging, they have built a reputation as one of the most trusted names in the renewable-materials space.
Their products are made from rapidly renewable agricultural fibers — such as sugarcane bagasse, bamboo, and miscanthus — rather than virgin trees. This preserves forests, reduces carbon emissions, and eliminates the harmful chemicals commonly found in traditional disposable products.
“When customers have a choice between traditional products and responsible ones, they overwhelmingly choose sustainability. The problem has always been access — and now, through RMS, that barrier is gone.”
Emerald Ecovations holds certifications from BPI (Biodegradable Products Institute) and FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), and their products are USDA Biobased certified — giving your business credible, third-party verified sustainability credentials you can proudly share with clients and stakeholders.

In a recent demonstration at Riley Maintenance Systems (RMS), Josh Enfield performed a demo to showcase the Betco GeneSys 20 automatic scrubber. This compact yet powerful machine is designed to tackle the toughest cleaning tasks with ease.
The GeneSys 20 boasts a 20-inch scrub path and is equipped with a transaxle drive system, providing smooth operation and maneuverability. Its 13-gallon solution tank and 15-gallon recovery tank allow for extended cleaning sessions, while the HEPA-filtered vacuum ensures a cleaner environment by capturing fine particles. With a sound level of less than 65 dBa, it operates quietly, making it suitable for noise-sensitive areas.
One of the standout features of the GeneSys 20 is the SoliChem™ Technology. This on-board chemical dispensing system utilizes solid chemical cartridges, eliminating the need for manual mixing and reducing chemical waste. A single solid can produce approximately 350 gallons of cleaning solution, offering both cost savings and environmental benefits.
The machine also incorporates the Fortify™ Asset Protection Suite, which includes a wet battery protection system, programmable timer lock-out, and Armor™ telemetry for monitoring machine performance. Additionally, the Airoflex® squeegee system enhances vacuum performance by up to 40%, ensuring floors are left dry and safe after cleaning.
For a closer look at the GeneSys 20 in action, check out the demonstration video from RMS!
