How to Choose the Right Cleaning and Janitorial

When selecting industrial cleaning supplies, first consider the specific surface materials and contaminants in your facility. Chemical compatibility is crucial - alkaline degreasers work well on oil and grease but may damage certain metals, while neutral pH cleaners are safer for finished surfaces. Also evaluate concentration ratios and dilution requirements, as these affect total cost of ownership and storage requirements.

For cleaning equipment like mop systems, key considerations include coverage area, floor type, and frequency of use. Commercial-grade mop handles should meet ASTM standards for durability, while wringer mechanisms should be rated for your expected daily usage volume. Consider modular systems that allow component replacement rather than complete unit replacement when parts wear out.

Safety compliance is essential when procuring cleaning chemicals. All products should have current SDS documentation and clear labeling for OSHA hazard communication. For facilities with environmental certifications, verify that cleaning products meet relevant EPA or Green Seal standards. Consider automated dilution systems for consistent chemical mixing and reduced waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose between different types of industrial degreasers?
Select degreasers based on the type of soil (organic vs. inorganic), surface material compatibility, and environmental requirements. Water-based degreasers are safer for general use but may be less effective on heavy grease, while solvent-based options offer stronger cleaning power but require more safety precautions. Consider flash point requirements and VOC regulations for your facility.
What are the essential features for commercial wet mop systems?
Key features include rust-resistant wringer mechanisms rated for commercial use, non-marking casters rated for facility floor types, and bucket capacities of at least 35 quarts. Look for systems with integrated dirty water buckets and ergonomic handles meeting ANSI/ASSP A1264.2 standards for slip prevention.
Which cleaning product certifications are important for industrial facilities?
Essential certifications include OSHA HazCom 2012 compliance for chemicals, ASTM D2047 slip resistance standards for floor care products, and optional Green Seal or EPA Safer Choice certification for environmentally preferred products. Products should also comply with facility-specific ISO or industry standards.
What are typical minimum order quantities and bulk pricing options?
Chemical products typically have minimum orders of 4-12 units depending on size, with price breaks at case quantities (4 gallons) and pallet quantities (48+ gallons). Equipment like mop systems usually have no minimum order but offer 10-15% discounts for bulk orders of 5+ units.
Can industrial degreasers be used on all equipment surfaces?
No, industrial degreasers vary in material compatibility. Alkaline degreasers may corrode aluminum or zinc surfaces, while solvent-based products can damage plastic components or painted surfaces. Always check chemical compatibility charts and test on a small area first. Consider pH-neutral alternatives for sensitive surfaces.
