Dissecting ‘Freedom Day’: How will cleaning standards change?

When it comes to cleaning and hygiene, will yesterday’s ‘Freedom Day’ see any changes to government guidelines on stringent cleaning protocols?

While certain businesses are being allowed to re-open fully (in particular, those that primarily operate in the night-time economy, like nightclubs and theatres) there are still rules and regulations in place that may see a more thorough approach to cleanliness is still being undertaken!

CL Floor Care examines some of these below, and how these new rules will undoubtedly impact cleaning practices:

–     The re-opening of nightclubs and other nighttime economy venues. Huzzah and hurrah! Grab your dancing shoes and get ready to boogie, as the long-awaiting re-opening of nightclubs is finally upon us, with some venues having re-opened from 12 am on Monday 19th July. But with no social distancing guidelines in place and no capacity limits, such venues will need to rigorously clean high traffic areas to ensure minimal business disruption from COVID-19 transmission.

–     The work from home guidance ‘no longer being necessary’. While ministers have called for clinically vulnerable people to be allowed to continue to work from home, many workers have been encouraged to work from the office from yesterday. An increase in office foot traffic will mean that touchpoints such as light switches, door handles and appliance handles will need to be cleaned more regularly.

–     The re-opening of high-capacity outdoor entertainment businesses, such as gigs and festivals. While outdoor meetings are inherently less risky than meeting indoors, due to COVID being less transmissible, large gatherings of people in any venue will leave a higher volume of rubbish. Such rubbish should be disposed of by operatives with the correct cleaning equipment and personal protective wear.

–     Face masks will no longer be mandatory in some settings. While many transport operators, supermarkets and hospitality businesses are advising continued use of face coverings, government rules suggest that they will no longer be a legal requirement (unless exempt). In support of maintaining cleanliness standards, businesses may want to consider installing plastic transparent screens where staff could interact with members of the public.

CL Floor Care has been committed to assisting individuals and organisations uphold their cleaning standards throughout the pandemic and will continue to do so beyond. We have a wide variety of cleaning machines that are optimised to clean the floors of businesses that are today now able to operate more freely (or indeed at all!). These include the SC351 and SC430 Pedestrian Scrubber Dryers and the Micro Ride-on SC2000, all suitable for cleaning dance floors, corridors, hallways, and other hard floor surfaces.

Why use a carpet cleaner… Hire/Buy we do both

Ask your self, do you ?…..

Do you clean your carpets? not just hoovering, a proper deep clean using cleaning solutions and a carpet machine…. to remove them deep stains and dirt? 9/10 the answer would be no because you don’t own or think about hiring a cleaning machine.

With so many products, both hardware and solutions, it can be very daunting on what cleaning machine is best to go for, but we are here to help you make the right choice. We want to show you why you should buy/hire a carpet cleaner from us.

1 – Have your home looking brand sparkling new

There is nothing worse than walking into your home and seen a dull dirty and unkempt carpet. It doesn’t look the best and it can start to smell bad too. Buying/hiring a carpet cleaner like our Nilfisk E5300, can give your carpets that ‘fresh new’ look and feel again.

2 – Home comforts… is there anything better?

You know that feeling you get when you’ve de-cluttered your house from top to bottom. It feels new and homely. A clean carpet smelling fresh and looking clean does just that. Leaving that new house smell and feeling.

Once you have done your deep carpet clean, it’s up to you to take care of the vacuuming and keeping that smell and freshness alive as long as possible.

3- Extend the life of your carpet

Treat your carpet well, Through routine cleaning and maintenance, you can count on the life of your carpet being extended for any number of years depending on the quality and frequency of cleanings. The carpet in your home is equal if not more of an asset as the paint on your walls, due to the constant traffic.

4 – Odors and Smells

Carpets can start to smell over time. With regular traffic, all those crumbs, spills, dirt simply disappear into the pile of your carpet. By using our Viper CEX410 this can get rid of all the nasty smells which arise from a dirty carpet.

Things like pet stains and food spills as well as general wear and tear all add to the odor problem which occurs within the carpet. Scrubbing or off the shelf cleaning products will not get rid of these nasty smells. If anything if not done properly can make matters worse adding more damp to the service.

The majority of products you see in retail stores will only mask the smell for a very short period of time where as our carpet cleaners can eliminate them all together with a combination of high powered cleaning technology and we have some great C L Floorcare carpet chemical solutions.

5 – Now just Relax Knowing That Your Carpet are looking fresh and fine!

Now sit back and relax and look at the amazing job your carpet cleaner has done. There is nothing better than knowing that your home is now looking fresh and new.

Various Industrial Carpet Cleaning Methods

Any environment you are working in should look sparkle clean. This is where your colleagues or visitors converge during or after having had a busy day. Therefore, you should beat all odds to ensure that the place is fresh and appealing. Your office or warehouse might be smart, your furniture might be glamorous, but visitors will still notice a worn out and dirty carpet.

Keeping your warehouse or office carpeting clean, will go a long way in maintaining your reputation. Maintaining your carpet helps extend its life. At CL Floorcare, we have you covered with amazing deals. We aim to provide services that exceed our customer’s expectation at an affordable cost.

The following are the most preferred carpet cleaning methods.

Hot water extraction: While using this method, hot water is forced into a carpet. The water is pumped under high pressure and then sucked using a vacuum. Van and truck mount extraction are the commonly known hot water extraction methods.

While using a truck mount machine, the machine heats water to high temperature and shoots the solutions to a carpet at high pressure. The hot water and chemicals break up dirt, pollens and bacteria in the carpet. The machine then draws the dirt and bacteria from the carpet. This is the most effective way to clean large commercial carpets.

Dry foam: using this method, shampoo is applied on a carpet and left to dry. The dried shampoo is then extracted using a vacuum. When using this method, you are not supposed to rinse the shampoo. According to experts, this method is not sufficient. It leaves sticky residue and dirt in your carpet.

Dry absorbent powder: while using this procedure, wet powder is spread on a carpet. Industrial carpet cleaners leaves the powder to dry and then sucks it using a vacuum. This method is easy and affordable. However, the vacuum leaves dry sponge particles on your carpet.

Bonnet cleaning: This method might be too hard on your carpet. Industrial carpet cleaners sets a piece of large cotton on your carpet and buffs the carpet using a floor polishing buffer machine. The rotating part of the machine absorbs dirt from your carpet. In layman’s language, the machine uses a cotton rag to mop and rub dust out of your carpet.
