Denver, CO August 19, 2022 – Inc. revealed that Bio-One is No. 4,365 on its annual Inc. 5000
list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list
represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most
dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft,
Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees
on the Inc. 5000.
Sandi Ellis, President of Bio-One, had this to say about the achievement: “We are honored to be
recognized and this is only possible because of our amazing Bio-One owners across the United
States. Every Bio-One owner works hard in their community, and we thank them for their time,
dedication, and sacrifices.”
The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful, but have also
demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of
Covid-19. Among the top 500, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to
2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three
years.
Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that
can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The
top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc. magazine, which will be
available on August 23.
“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of
recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc.
“Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation,
hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
Ellis said, “While the ranking is a wonderful reflection of the company’s growth in the past 12
years, I am also excited for the future of Bio-One. We’re investing in new technology, improving
our digital strategies, and are in the middle of launching a new brand. It’s an exciting time to be
part of Bio-One!”
Bio-One Inc. is the first crime and trauma scene cleaning franchise with over 125 locations.
Each location is owned and operated locally by caring members of their respective
communities. In an effort to boost business growth and impact more areas, Bio-One was
acquired by Five Star Franchising last year. Bio-One has been ranked in Entrepreneur
magazine’s 43rd Annual Franchise 500 for 2022, and in 2021 placed number one in
Entrepreneur’s Best of the Best for Crime Scene Cleaning and Trauma Scene Cleaning.

Happy New Year! It’s that time of year when many of us vow to change for the better. The tradition of making a New Year’s resolution dates back some 4,000 years so it’s no surprise that 43% of us made a resolution last year.
Three of the most common resolutions center on healthier and happier living. These include improving organization & decluttering, achieving better mental health, and better hygiene. The motivation to change starts with understanding why these resolutions are important and then taking action to achieve these very attainable goals.
According to Intermountain Healthcare, a cluttered or disorganized home or workspace impacts your physical health. A cluttered home produces fire hazards, dust, and mold. If you feel anxious and overwhelmed all the time, that clutter may be impacting your mental health too. Make a commitment to organize and clean your home. Not only will you feel a sense of accomplishment, but you may also experience other benefits like improved sleep, reduced stress & anxiety, and better food choices.

At Bio-One, we regularly work to assist our clients in decluttering and organizing. We help people sort through items, discard trash, remove junk, organize, store, clean and disinfect and yes, we remediate mold too!

SPRING CLEANING is a tradition that encourages us to prepare for a promising new year by cleaning up our house, both literally and spiritually.

Let Your Insurance Work FOR You
Did you know there is a good chance your insurance covers many of the services we provide to our clients? Services that are covered by insurance include undiscovered deaths, decompositions, suicides, homicides, blood clean ups, MRSA decontaminations, C-Diff decontaminations, some feces clean ups, some mold remediations, and more- you just have to call us and we can walk through with you step by step if insurance may cover an unfortunate or tragic event. Locations covered by insurance are not limited to homes either. We remediate vehicles where suicides have taken place, where fecal accidents have happened, where shootings have occurred, etc. Many times it is cheaper for us to come and remediate a vehicle versus totaling the vehicle and making a complete loss.
Bio-One is a Bio Recovery Company who specializes in cleaning/remediating bio-hazards. What are bio-hazards? Bio-Hazards are risks to human health or the environment arising from biological work, especially with microorganisms. Risks to human health- that statement is impactful. Many diseases are contagious and very dangerous if not dealt with appropriately and with caution such as HIV, Hepatitis viruses, TB, MRSA, C-Diff, Sepsis, and Dengue Fever. Considering diseases and viruses are becoming more and more prevalent in today's society, it is imperative that experts come in to remediate an area or areas affected by blood or bodily fluids so no bio-hazards remain to cause sickness and/or death to those who come in contact with the area(s) once they have been treated. We are the experts to properly treat that area affected, and our clients can feel safe knowing a professional, knowledgeable, and highly trained company came and took care of the situation
Why does insurance cover most of our services? Well, the last paragraph pretty much sums it up. Health is so important and people are educating themselves on what not to do and what to do when tragedy or an accident occurs. Also, many of our jobs we are removing flooring, walls, appliances, cabinets, seats in vehicles, expensive furniture, personal items, and so much more that insurance helps pay to replace. When the job turns into a project for our client such as needing additional contractors in the now safe area to replace what we had to remove, running everything through insurance is even more economical because our client still only pays their deductible ONE time, regardless of how many contractors have to come in after Bio-One.

More than 13 million seniors live alone, according to the US Census. Our older generation is living longer and their safety at home becomes more and more challenging. With pandemic isolation recommended, caring for our aging family members can be complicated. Here are some important things to remember and suggestions for creating a safe environment.
Aging At Home Alone – Common Hazards
Falls are the leading cause of injury for seniors. Excess clutter poses a serious risk for falls. Nearly one third of seniors fall at least once a year! Poor hygiene & habits can also become an issue. The confinement of quarantine can make this situation worse. Unhealthy kitchen conditions and food storage, infrequent bathing or cleaning, impaired vision, and problems making it to the restroom are all common as mental and physical health decline.
Consider the following:
Help Is Available
At Bio-One, we respond to calls requesting help for seniors with untidy or unsafe conditions. Our teams are trained to assess your needs and offer a plan to remediate and promote future safety.
