Are you using the wrong mop for the job?
With a range of floor surfaces, room sizes, and business industries, it’s natural that our floor cleaning needs have evolved over the years. Gone are the days when the word ‘mop’ only meant a large head filled with white cotton fibers attached to a wooden handle.
As a business, you are often faced with a dilemma between purchasing specialized equipment to best complete the job, or a multitasking product. Luckily in mops, by analyzing your floor type, size and soil level, you can find a balance between your needs.
Large cotton head mops on timber floors or tiny sponge mops on large tiled areas aren’t the best choice to make your life easier. Flat mops are best suited to hardwood floors, traditional cotton twist styles are best for large messes, and if you have a big floor to clean, you will find a microfibre mop can quickly do the job. This is why we carry a large variety of dust and wet mops in our catalog so that, no matter your workspace, we can help get it the clean to prevent falls and spills, as well as promote a positive image for your business.
Another major mistake in mopping is not washing your mop heads with each use. Not paying proper attention to your mop will quickly discolor it, and leave it unhygienic for the next use as bacteria and mold multiply within the damp mop. While using filthy water is a well-known rookie mistake, an equally filthy mop head will immediately sully your rinsing water, and floor, in no time.
By partnering with a professional laundry company, like ourselves, you can arrange for your mops to be collected, cleaned, and delivered to your door. In fact, we can provide this service for a variety of linens your business may use, from uniforms to tablecloths to towels to floor mats!
