Taking floorcare forward Ensuring you have got the right cleaning regimes and machines in place for your flooring needs is essential. Providing clean, safe and healthy floors throughout your premises, whatever they may be, must be a guaranteed deliverable. From carpeted offices and boardrooms to tiled areas in washrooms or kitchens, safety flooring in nurseries, sports flooring in gyms, and much more in between, floor cleaning machinery has to be targeted in terms of the surfaces to be cleaned and the results you require. Different areas within a building will also have their own specific cleaning needs. Kitchens and eating areas often have to deal with the problems of spilled food and drink, and warehouses or industrial settings may have even tougher things to deal with such as oil, sawdust, or swarfe and discarded metal. Healthcare providers also have infection control to deal with. Vacuum cleaners incorporating HEPA filters and steam cleaners which clean and sanitise without the need for added chemicals are popular choices for these environments. Scrubber dryers allow daily floor cleaning and routine maintenance tasks to be carried out quickly and efficiently and can also be used for tasks beyond daily cleaning such as stripping finishes and applying new product.

The rise of battery power and daytime cleaning

With the development of cordless, low noise cleaning equipment, cleaning activities can be planned around the functionality of the building and anticipated footfall across the day. Battery operated equipment gives workers the flexibility to clean any area at any time of the day or night, bringing higher productivity and increased profitability. With no trailing cables to cause hazards in the workplace, battery powered floor cleaning machines can greatly improve health and safety. Modern, micro scrubber dryers are having a real impact on daytime cleaning regimes. Lightweight, portable and extremely efficient, they are ideal for use when the building is occupied and people are on the move.

Train and support your staff Investing in the most technologically advanced and environmentally friendly cleaning equipment is only part of the equation. If you don’t have the correctly trained operatives to work the equipment or the right client support mechanisms in place, you will not achieve the optimum results. Training people to operate cleaning equipment is vital for increased efficiency and to ensure flooring retains its appearance, safety and comfort. Lack of training will show in the appearance of the floor.
