Be ready for a safe & healthy winter workplace

Bob Moore — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 14:21:57 +0000

Now is the time to make sure your facility is ready for the bad weather and the challenges it brings. Sure, everyone knows that proper matting at all entrances will trap & hold dirt for easy removal before it spreads. For a matting guide click here: http://www.purozone.com/education-and-measurement/library/floor-caremats/For%20Risk%20Management.pdf

And having ice melt on hand BEFORE you need it insures a quick & safe response to ice and snow. Do you need to get some ordered? View our quick ship ice melt here: http://www.purozone.com/home/2011/10/15/road-runner-ice-melt-starts-melting-fast.html

And with the use of ice melt there is often residue tracked into the building. This needs to be quickly removed to preserve the floor finish and keep it from spreading further. A quick mopping or auto scrubbing with the correct neutralizer will take care of this. I recommend Bond-Ayd. Product information & directions are here: http://www.purozone.com/floor-care/Bond-Ayd2.pdf

Here is a great tool for quick clean-ups like ice melt residue, as well as everyday mopping tasks: http://www.purozone.com/microfiber-productivity/PL%20222%20Bucketless%20Mop%20System%20Sell%20Sheet%20F1.pdf

So, let's review. Matting, ice melt, neutralizer, bucketless mop. These will take care of what we CAN see. What about those things we CAN NOT see like harmful bacteria on surfaces and airborne germs that spread cold, flu and other diseases? Diseases that make employees sick, increase absenteeism, lower productivity and hurt the bottom line. Research shows that only 1 out of 3 people wash their hands after using the rest room. As many as 14 people in a row can be contaminated from the same dirty door handle. Harmful bacteria can live on surfaces for up to 72 hours! Here are some simple, low cost yet effective things you can do to have a healthier workplace this winter and always:

Install hand sanitizer at the exits of rest rooms, in break rooms and wherever employees congregate.

Encourage hand sanitizer usage after you shake hands / before you snack or eat lunch / after using the rest room / after handling money / when you cough, sneeze or blow your nose / after getting coffee, using a vending machine or anytime you feel your hands need to be refreshed. We have several sanitizer options available including gel, foam or spray, in regular or non alcohol formulas. See the new Purell ADX system here: http://www.purozone.com/home/2011/11/7/purell-advanced-instant-hand-sanitizer-launches-in-adx-syste.html

Don't forget indoor air quality, too. The quality of your indoor air can affect performance, attendance and personal health. You can now clean the air using activTek Active Pure Technology. These portable, economical units are simple to use. Just plug in and they work 24/7 killing germs both in the air and on all surfaces. You can't clean 24/7 but Active Pure Technology can!

Have a problem with small spaces?

Bob Moore — Sat, 11 Jun 2011 15:25:23 +0000

Due to space constraints in many facilities, a full size roll towel dispenser just won't fit over a counter, under a cabinet, above a sink or wherever space is tight. This forces the facility to use costly - and less efficient - folded towels. With the new Optiserv Accent you can now use roll towels in those small spaces and start enjoying the benefits a roll towel system provides, including:

Higher Capacity - refill less often / reduce runouts
Controlled Usage - dispenses one at a time / less waste
Hands Free Operation - touch only the paper / reduces touch points
Go Green - 100% recycled Green Seal paper option available
Save Money - roll towels always have a lower in-use cost than folded

To learn more about the Accent and see how it can benefit your facility contact me at 913-709-3881 or bmoore@purozone.com - I want to help you succeed!

Waterless Urinal Cleaning Tips

Bob Moore — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 15:24:10 +0000

If you are called upon to clean waterless urinals here are some guidelines:

Use a neutral disinfectant cleaner or non acid rest room cleaner. Apply cleaner inside and out and then wipe off. Preferably with a soft cloth like microfiber. Do not let any of the chemical run down into urinal. They should not take longer to clean than standard urinals. For the scheduled maintenance of flushing out urinal and replacing the cartridge follow the manufacturer's guidelines.

Because waterless urinals do save water look for them to become more popular.

If I can help you with this or other cleaning challenges email me at bmoore@purozone.com or call me direct at 913-709-3881.

Doing More With Less;
How to Come out Ahead on the Other Side of Budget Reductions

Dear Facilities Manager and Purchasing Professional,

There is little doubt there will be even more pressure on your custodial budget. Cutting supplies or delaying automation, however, is probably not the best answer. We have observed over 65 years of serving customers in the Midwest Region that it is easy to cut so much that supplies begin to conflict with, instead of serving, your intended purposes. The same is true of mechanization or automation. After cost-cutting, you are still faced with rising expectations, health challenges like MRSA and seasonal influenza, evolving green and sustainability requirements, and in some cases new uses of your facilities not envisioned when budgets were established. Cutting further in these traditional areas is not necessarily the best option, or your only one. We offer a better alternative and a proven methodology.

We know that $19 out of every $20 you spend in your Annual Cleaning Budget is on people. We want to help you use that fundamental fact to your advantage.

When you cut supplies, you are still working on a small portion - just 5 to 7 percent - of the average Annual Cleaning Budget. In other words, a 10% reduction in supplies nets about half of one percent from the overall budget! Yet supplies and automation are critical to productivity, achievement and building occupant satisfaction. So when you slice too deep, you handicap people doing already difficult jobs. Our solution is to help you concentrate on the largest part of the Annual Cleaning Budget: People Resources.

When you expand your viewpoint from cost-cutting to productivity enhancement, you reverse a trend of conflicts - between the needs of your custodial staff and the requirements of purchasing - that hurts your organization. You can implement plans that result in efficiencies (cost reductions) that also have demonstrable payoffs in quality and return-on-investment. This is because they are based on changes in processes, not on further reductions in quality or features of the equipment and materials your people have available to work with. We have the roadmap you need, and have helped hundreds of customers use it.

The Right Mat Makes a Big Difference

Bob Moore — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 02:09:36 +0000

The International Sanitary Supply Association (ISSA) has estimated that it costs 600 dollars to find and remove one pound of soil after it has been allowed to enter an average building. This cost is primarily labor. Since entrance mats stop and contain soil and water, it is obvious that removing soil from a mat can be less expensive than removing it from a building since the soil is concentrated in a localized area.

Soil is everywhere. It is a part of the earth we live on and managing it is a vital part of our everyday existence. Today's emphasis on Green Cleaning and the impact of the cleanliness of a building on health makes soil management even more important. At the heart of soil management is the concept of prevention - prevention of contaminants from entering a building. 85% of all soil enters a building on the feet of building occupants. Prevent that with the right matting for your facility.

1. Stop soil and water at the door
2. Store soil and water for removal
3. Minimize tracking of soil an water
4. Provide a safe surface

Even if you currently own or are renting mats are they true entrance mats designed to prevent dirt from getting tracked into your building?
