What is Ultra Green Floor Sweep?
Ultra Green Floor Sweep is a 100% natural sweeping compound that cleans as you sweep. Based in Platte, South Dakota, the company ships its green product nationwide. It is a 100% all-natural compound that is not harmful to the touch, making it a good fit for industrial and residential users alike.
How do I use Ultra Green Floor Sweep?
The process is simple: sprinkle it over your floor and sweep it right up. Your floors will look as if you spent hours mopping them, even without a drop of water. After repeated use, the floor develops a natural shine as if it has been polished.
How does it work without using any water?
The natural oils in the floor sweep coagulate the dust and dirt in a way the company says no other sweeping compound on the market does. As you sweep, it pulls the dust and dirt together so it lifts away cleanly, and after several uses it leaves a sheen on the floor as if it had been mopped with water. That makes it ideal for places where using water is problematic or unfeasible.
Does it help with dust control in a barn?
Yes. It is great for dust control because as you sweep it takes the extra dust away, so you are not left coughing and breathing it in. That benefits everyone, and can be especially helpful for horses and people who are sensitive to dust.
How much does Ultra Green Floor Sweep cover, and how often can I use it?
One pound of floor sweep covers approximately 200 square feet, so it is both easy and economical to use. You can use it as often as you need to sweep your floors. OSHA does not make any special disposal requirements either, so you simply throw the dirt and used product into any wastebasket.
How much does a sack cost, and can I get a free sample?
A 40 pound sack is the smallest size and is only $39.50, with a bigger size also available on request. The company is confident enough in the product that they will send you a free sample, with just a small shipping and handling charge to cover. One pound cleans up to 200 square feet, so a sack goes a long way.

Is Ultra Green Floor Sweep safe to use around horses?
Yes. It is specifically promoted as a dust-control product, which is exactly the concern in barns and arenas where airborne dust irritates equine airways. A long-time customer, Karla Dean of Yellow Rose Arena, says they have used it for five years on their arena floors to keep dust down and give the floor a nice shine. Because it is all-natural, it does not introduce harsh chemicals into the horse's environment.
What is Ultra Green Floor Sweep made of?
The company describes it as a 100% natural, all-natural sweeping compound and does not publish a detailed ingredient breakdown on its website. The key marketing point is that it contains no dangerous chemicals and requires no water to work. For a precise composition or safety data sheet, the best step is to call the company directly at 605-680-4400.
How do you use Ultra Green Floor Sweep?
Sprinkle the compound over the area you want to clean, then sweep it across the surface with a push broom. As you sweep, it picks up dust and fine dirt instead of letting it scatter into the air. Collect the spent material and discard it; with repeated applications the floor takes on a clean shine.
Do I need water to use it?
No. Ultra Green Floor Sweep is designed to clean floors without any water, which is a major difference from mopping. That makes it well suited to barns, shops, and warehouses where wet floors are inconvenient or create slip hazards, and where you simply want to knock down dust as you sweep.
How do I dispose of the used compound?
Because the product is all-natural, used sweepings can be thrown away in a regular trash can with no special OSHA or EPA disposal requirements. The one exception the company notes is that if you use it to pick up toxic or hazardous material, it becomes your responsibility to dispose of those materials safely in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations.
What surfaces can I use Ultra Green Floor Sweep on?
It is made for hard, high-traffic, and unfinished surfaces. The company lists warehouse floors, garage floors, shop and workshop floors, basement and concrete floors, construction and industrial areas, and arena floors among its applications. In an equine setting that translates to barn aisles, tack and feed rooms, wash bays, and indoor arena walkways.

Is there a free sample available?

What is the 1,700 LB Industrial Tote and who is it for?
The 1,700 LB Industrial Tote is the bulk option, priced at $1,300 plus shipping. It comes in a reusable, forklift-compatible tote designed for high-volume commercial use, such as large warehouses, equipment shops, or sizable equine facilities that sweep frequently. For most home barns or single arenas, the 40 LB Bag at $38.50 is the more practical size.
Will it help with dust in my riding arena?
That is one of its core uses. By trapping fine dust as you sweep rather than letting it become airborne, it helps keep arena footing and walkways cleaner and the air clearer. The Yellow Rose Arena testimonial specifically credits five years of use with keeping dust down and giving the floor a nice shine.
Does Ultra Green Floor Sweep contain harsh chemicals?
No. The company emphasizes that the compound is 100% natural and free of dangerous chemicals, which is why it can be disposed of in regular trash. This is part of what makes it appealing for use around animals and in enclosed spaces like barns and shops where chemical fumes are a concern.
How is it different from oil-based sweeping compounds?
Traditional sweeping compounds often rely on oil or petroleum to bind dust, which can leave residue and create disposal headaches. Ultra Green Floor Sweep is an all-natural, water-free alternative that the company states delivers better results than other sweeping compounds on the market while remaining safe to throw in the trash. It is built to control dust and build a shine without the mess of oil-based products.
How often should I apply it to build a shine?
The company describes the shine as something that develops with multiple applications rather than after a single sweep. In practice, that means using it as part of your regular sweeping routine; over repeated cleanings the floor takes on a cleaner, mopped-looking sheen while dust stays under control. Requesting the free sample first is a good way to gauge how it performs on your specific floors.
