Keeping on top of cleaning in your workplace is imperative to ensure a safe and happy work environment. Vacuuming removes the build-up of dust, dirt, and bacteria in your carpet or flooring. Regularly vacuuming will keep your floors in top condition for as long as possible.
Here, at Industar, we stock a range of Verhagen industrial vacuum cleaners that are the best possible solution for the cleanest floors. They cater to a variety of different vacuuming needs, such as liquids and construction materials. All of our vacuums are stainless steel and easy to empty. You can organise a demonstration for the vacuums in our range without any obligation to make a purchase.
An industrial vacuum is one of the best investments you can make in keeping your business tidy. They are more expensive than your average domestic model. However, they will last longer, be more efficient, and achieve a higher standard of cleaning.
If you consider the need for an industrial vacuum cleaner in your workplace or are in the market for a new model, here are the key reasons to stay on top of vacuuming at work.
Hygiene
This one seems obvious, but the extent of bacteria and dirt that can build up in your flooring or carpets is often massively underestimated. Pollen, dust, dirt, and other unwanted particles can cause respiratory issues or trigger allergies and symptoms of asthma. Various indoor particles can be irritating, such as dust mites and animal hair. As all of these things build up over time, they can become increasingly worse.
Different viruses also cling to the fibres in your carpet. Industrial vacuum cleaners are excellent solutions to ensuring you get deep down into your carpets and get out all of the dirt and dust lurking beneath the surface. Having the cleanest possible carpets will help improve your employees’ overall health, reducing the risk of taking time off work for illness. Industrial vacuum cleaners are efficient and effective ways of keeping your workplace safe and looking clean and tidy.
Air Quality
Continuing from hygiene, vacuuming regularly with an industrial-grade cleaner will drastically improve your workplace’s air quality. You cannot see just how many dust particles linger in the air throughout the day with the naked eye. There are thousands of them.
Dust can be disturbed whenever anybody walks on a dusty surface. These specks of dust get kicked into the air and can then be inhaled. Depending on the substance, this can have profound health implications. Particles of hazardous materials, such as Asbestos, can contribute to conditions such as lung cancer and Asbestosis if continuously inhaled over time.
Prevent Dust Mite Infestations
Dust mites are particularly prevalent in carpets, as dust clings to the fibres. If you are using a domestic vacuum cleaner, then it can only reach the dust that has collected on the surface, but there are thousands more living further down in your carpet.
Dust mites are harmful to those who suffer from allergies or asthma. They produce dead skin waste, which can cause skin irritation, sneezing, and nasal congestion. If you do not have an effective vacuum, these mites can multiply, increasing their effect on the body. Steam cleaning is an effective solution to a dust mite problem. The steam kills the mites, and the powerful suction of an industrial vacuum can remove them from deep down in the carpet fibres.
Our models can store a high volume of waste with the best motors, suction, and filtration systems to take your cleaning to another level. They are durable and easy to use, covering an ample space at once, with our large walk-behind brush bars. You can quickly and effectively clean your floors with the utmost ease. There is no need for heavy lifting or dragging either. We have turned to vacuuming from a time-consuming chore to a speedy bit of maintenance.
Prevents Mould
It is easy to overlook the level of grime that can build up on your flooring over time. If you have a domestic vacuum cleaner, likely, you are only scratching the surface of the dirt. If you work in a cold or damp environment, mould can develop on your floors or carpets, which is bad news for your and your employees’ health.
Mould has many adverse side effects, such as respiratory distress, chest tightness, and skin rashes. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, there is already an increased risk to people’s general health. So, you must ensure your work environment is not contributing any further risk to employees’ welfare. Having mould lingering in your workspace can cause damage to people’s airways, weakening lung function. This puts them at a greater risk of contracting other viruses and being more severely affected by symptoms.
If you regularly work with water or deckscrub your floors. You must invest in a robust wet vacuum. We supply the Liquid Interceptor & Separator that can hold up to 130 litres of liquids and wet waste. So, you will be able to clean up all water on your floors effectively.
Cosmetics
