Sustainable solutions


The experts at Robert Scott discuss floorcare innovations and products that provide solutions for any facility.


Floorcare is one of the most vital elements of any cleaning regime. Most public areas experience high volumes of footfall on a daily basis, each with their own unique set of requirements, from adhering to infection control policy through to rapid response and spot cleaning.


Alastair Scott, Sales Director at Robert Scott, explained: “It’s important to carry out regular reviews of your cleaning regime to find out where efficiencies can be made, especially with floorcare maintenance as it can often be the most time-consuming task.


“It’s a service we often get asked for by our distributors. We frequently visit end-users on our customers’ behalf to spend a day with their cleaning staff to understand the challenges they face so we can recommend the best practices and products to get the job done.


“More and more, our customers and their end users are looking for more sustainable products that can help reduce the impact on the environment – using less water, less plastic waste and more cost-effective solutions are all top priorities. As a business, we have made real progress with innovation and a commitment to offering more sustainable products across our range.”


of water which makes it ideal for spot cleaning. The mop’s lightweight break-frame reduces strain on joints and has a built-in release system to avoid user contact with the soiled mop.


The mop system is designed to be completely versatile to meet the needs of today’s janitorial workforce and is available with a range of microfibre pads. The antibacterial Nano-Ag Microcide silver mop pads are designed to prevent bacterial growth. Once bacteria has been picked up by the mop it is virtually eliminated within 30 minutes of contact.


Nano silver works effectively to reduce the five most common bacteria – Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli and Salmonella. The antibacterial properties of the material also mean that the pads can be used without any chemical cleaning agents and can be washed at ambient temperatures of 30 – 40°C, making them a more environmentally-friendly cleaning option.


The kit can also be supplied with disposable Mi-mop microfibre pads, which are ideal in hygiene-critical areas such as restaurants or hospitals where there’s no access to laundry facilities on site, or where infection control policy requirements must be met to reduce cross contamination risk.


Pro-mist microfibre mop system


This is one of Robert Scott’s first product launches for 2019 – an innovative microfibre flat mop kit that combines a new Pro-mist spray handle and microfibre pads for effective rapid response cleaning, without the need for excessive amounts of waste water or chemical agents.


The Pro-mist features a removable bottle and spray trigger, which delivers a fine mist of solution directly to the surface to clean and dry floors quickly. There’s no need for buckets

A favourite among frontline janitorial staff is the Robert Scott-developed Exel Supermop – a highly absorbent socket mop made with Nano-Ag silver ions for extra hygienic and effective floor cleaning.


The Supermop is a faster drying alternative to traditional cotton mops and is ideal for small to medium floor areas. Its Nano silver ions reduce the need for cleaning chemicals
