Here, Diversey provides advice and guidance on how to simplify floorcare and maintenance in hospitality and retail settings.


CLEAN & SIMPLE


The cleaning and maintenance of floors in retail and hospitality should not be overlooked. These floors represent a significant investment which, with the right floorcare processes, will retain their integrity and appearance for many years. Diversey offers a complete range of floorcare products and equipment that help building care teams meet these objectives.


At this time of the year, the increase in wet weather can present a real challenge in keeping floors clean. The constant flow of people coming and going in large numbers can bring water, mud and other debris into the building, all of which can ruin the floor’s appearance and cause gradual degradation. On top of this is the need to remove any materials that can increase the risk of a slip or trip accident.


In many retail settings, especially in communal and public areas, the floors will most likely be made from hard materials such as stone, concrete, ceramic tile or vinyl. Regular cleaning throughout the day, even when people are present, with a scrubber drier will help keep these floors in tip-top condition and maintain their appearance. It is important to choose the right pads to use with the machine to achieve the optimum combination of results, efficiency and economy.


Twister by Diversey is an innovative range of thirteen colour-coded floorcare pads made from 100% recycled plastics. These deliver exceptional results with water alone when used with the company’s advanced TASKI swingo scrubber driers and rotary-disc machines. Working without chemicals simplifies cleaning processes, creates a healthier environment for cleaners and bystanders, and reduces routine machine maintenance burdens. In retail settings, most floors can be cleaned and maintained using blue and orange pads from the range.


Each pad is impregnated with billions of microscopic diamonds. Varying the size and combination of the diamonds during manufacture ensures there is a pad for almost every common type of flooring. These are less abrasive than the corresponding conventional alternative which helps to protect the floor while giving a smoother and improved appearance. Moreover, the resulting micro-polished finish of the floor is more resistant to soiling.


Twister by Diversey pads are ideal for daily maintenance in retail settings. They last three times longer than traditional products, and significantly reduce the need for periodic maintenance, which improves sustainability and reduces overall cleaning costs. The diamond impregnated side of the pad is coloured and works as a wear indicator.


Hospitality venues are likely to have a significant proportion of carpeted area. For these, a three-stage approach to carpet care pays dividends in the long run. Vacuuming should be part of the daily routine to remove basic dirt, dust and debris. Diversey’s new TASKI AERO compact vacuum cleaners are among the quietest and most powerful on the market, making them ideal for busy spaces.

Despite daily vacuuming some soiling will inevitably work its way into the fabric of the carpet and this will require stages two and three of the cleaning regime: interim encapsulation cleaning followed by periodic deep extraction cleaning. Diversey’s TASKI procarpet machines simplify carpet cleaning by enabling interim encapsulation and deep extraction capabilities in a single design for the first time. This removes the need to purchase separate machines for these two critical carpet care tasks, saving capital, supply chain and storage costs. For deep cleaning, the machine is ideally used with TAPI Extract, a low-foaming Woolsafe-approved extraction cleaner with a fresh fragrance.


Diversey is always able to advise on the right combination of its products, tools and equipment to achieve the optimum cleaning results. Cleaning floors in retail and hospitality should not be overlooked but nor does it need to be onerous. Choosing the right products and equipment and using them correctly will keep processes simple while ensuring floors remain as good as new for years and delaying the time when a replacement is required.
