pH 5.0) are good options for inorganic soils such as limescale, and
neutral detergents (pH 7.0) are less aggressive and contain fewer
chemicals, making them more user friendly, with less
environmental impact. Neutral detergents are effective on everyday
levels of contamination across a range of surfaces, but will not cope
as well with heavy soiling. They are also not as effective for greasy
dirt and fats where an alkaline detergent would be more suitable.
Combined disinfectant detergent/cleaning sanitiser is effective
for organic soils such as food or human waste as it reduces bacteria
growth.
3. The correct kit
Finally, the cleaning equipment and process need to suit the special
characteristics of safety flooring, as well as the soil type already
identified. In order to prevent accidents, Altro safety flooring is
specially designed with a different surface profile to ordinary vinyl
flooring. It incorporates surface aggregates which increase grip
between the foot/shoe and the floor, providing greater slip
resistance. As the surface profile of safety flooring cannot be
completely smooth if it is to do its job properly, some items of
equipment and cleaning processes are more effective than others.
For example, cotton mop heads have a tendency to shed tiny fibres
during use. These fibres can be left behind on the safety flooring
increasing the likelihood of dirt and contaminant build-up on the
surface of the flooring, giving a disappointing finish, undermining
hygiene standards and reducing slip resistance of floors throughout
the site. Our step-by-step cleaning guides at
www.altro.co.uk/cleaning recommend effective mechanical,
manual and steam cleaning processes.
Following these guidelines will help to give you a better result,
with enhanced standards of hygiene. In addition, it will ensure that
the flooring retains its important slip resistant qualities, whilst the
most effective selection of process, equipment and (if appropriate)
detergent, could provide the opportunity for time and cost savings.
