Quality is key

Quality is the most important priority when it comes to purchasing products and services for the healthcare cleaning industry, according to those taking part in an online survey. In these times of budget constraints, a cleaning industry blog site cleanleanhealthcare.org asked: what is most important in the procurement of services and products for the cleaning of healthcare institutions - price or quality? The overwhelming vote (72%) voted for quality, with the remaining 28% of voters opting for price. James Blackhurst, managing director of Jigsaw Cleaning Systems who ran the survey says: “This confirms our own belief that you simply cannot replace quality. We believe you can improve the effectiveness - and the quality - of cleaning by using new methods while at the same time also reducing costs. “Using less water, saves time and money, and means there is a reduced resource for a more effective end result.”
