Shining at school
August 1st 2010 Cleaning with Vikan ErgoClean
ultramicrofibre cloths and mops
leads to vastly improved cleaning
results, financial savings, a
happier workforce and a
healthier environment, says the
domestic manager of
Giggleswick, a leading UK coeducational
boarding school.
The public school has 600
pupils and seven boarding
houses.With many issues to
contend with, the domestic
manager was encouraged to trial
the ultramicrofibre system.The
results spoke for themselves. So it
was an end to chemicals (apart
from toilet cleaners) as the entire
cleaning operation was turned
over to ultramicrofibres.
Without chemicals,
surfaces not only stay
cleaner longer but
actually shine, says the
company. Cleaning times
were reduced, lugging
chemicals and buckets
up and down stairs came
to an end and valuable
storage space was reallocated.
It is estimated that
savings on chemicals amount to
several hundreds of pounds per
year. And the school's medical
team has identified a
considerable drop in the number
of breathing complaints since the
system was introduced. More articles from Vikan (UK) Limited: |
