Choosing Industrial Cleaners For Increased Performance And Productivity By: Jayden Smith
The type of floor cleaning equipment you select for your establishment is as important as your choice of equipment. The cleanliness of your store, plant, warehouse or any other business establishment adds real value to your business. Most facilities require a combination of equipment that includes brooms, vacuum cleaners, walk-behind scrubbers and more. However, it is important to identify the right type of equipment that suits your environment.
Factors that influence your choice of equipment
The size and amount of dirt and debris, the type of surface, characteristics of the dirt and your perception of 'clean' are among the most important factors. ‘Clean' can mean anything from simply removing dust to maintaining a shiny surface or getting rid of nasty marks left by forklifts and other machines. In case of the latter, you will need to invest in industrial cleaners for sweeping and scrubbing as well.
Sweepers vs. scrubbers
Once you assess the size and amount of debris to be removed on a regular basis, you need to decide between sweeper and scrubber units. If the material is fine dust, investing in a sweeper may be the ideal alternative. However, if you wish to use water to the process you will need to consider a scrubber for the best results. For bulky debris such as metal shavings and wood chips, sweepers have the potential to complete the job effectively. On the other hand scrubbers are suitable for light debris on hard floors and oily surfaces. You will find a combination of sweeper/scrubbers and other high pressure cleaning machines for these types of surfaces. It all depends on your budget and the nature of cleaning required.
Manufacturers also offer a choice of walk or ride-on sweepers and scrubbers. Ride-on machines are easier for operators to handle and offer more productivity gains as compared to walk-on machines. It reduces fatigue, offers a greater level of comfort for the operator, and provides a clear line of sight for optimal safety during cleaning.
Features to look for
When it comes to choosing industrial cleaners there are several features to look for. It is essential to chose the right style of brushes, brooms and squeegees to match the surface and type of dirt that needs cleaning. Some brooms are designed for smooth floors while wire-reinforced brooms are ideal for aggressive cleaning jobs. There are different types of scrubbers for smooth and rough surfaces. A key feature you can ill afford to ignore is ease of use. The controls should be easy to understand while the machine must be light enough for the operator to handle and avoid fatigue. Waste material must be easy to discard during the process in order to maintain sweeping ability. In addition, choosing high pressure cleaning machines with large solution tank capacities makes more sense for larger cleaning areas. Choose a manufacturer or supplier that not only offers a wide range of cleaning tools and equipment but is willing to work with you to determine the best industrial cleaners that suit your needs.(read entire article)(posted on: 2014-04-22)
