Safety flooring cleaning and maintenance guide

Correct and thorough cleaning is an essential part of floor maintenance to ensure that your Flooring is kept safe and clean throughout its life.

There are 2 ways of cleaning your Safety flooring:

Manual

1. Sweep up dust and dirt, remove large debris.
   Using a microfibre mop apply a alkaline cleaner to the floor in the correct dilution and leave for several minutes.
   (The dilution rate depends upon how dirty the floor is and the concentrate used).
2. Scrub with a deck scrubber or a cleaning pad attached to a multi mop handle.
3. Rinse the floor with warm clean water, removing the dirty water from the floor with a microfibre mop and allow to dry. Use a double bucket to ensure that the floor is rinsed well with clean water.

Mechanical

1.  Vacuum up dust and dirt, remove large debris.
   Apply a solution of alkaline cleaner in the correct dilution and leave for several minutes (The dilution rate depends upon how dirty the floor is and the concentrate used).
2. Mechanically scrub using a rotary cleaning machine fitted with the correct cleaning.
3. Wet vacuum the residue and then using a microfibre mop rinse the floor with warm clean water and vacuum dry.

What is Alkaline Cleaner which is recommended for cleaning Safety Flooring

Alkaline cleaning agents contain strong bases like sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. Bleach (pH 12) and ammonia (pH 11) are common alkaline cleaning agents. Often, dispersants, to prevent redeposition of dissolved dirt, and chelants, to attack rust, are added to the alkaline agent.

Alkaline cleaners can dissolve fats (including grease), oils, and protein-based substance.

We Recommend that you use ‘Altro Clean 44’ on Altro flooring as this in line with their manufactures guidelines and it is always important to ensure that you are using the correct cleaning solution.
