Using The Local Janitorial Distributors Will Keep You Up To Date

By Coleen Torres


A professional custodial company needs things and information that makes it easy for them to perform their duties. This includes tools, chemicals and information for the training needed for all of these. A facility manager, required to maintain a cleaning and maintenance department will also need these things. The best source of this assistance is the janitorial distributors available throughout the area, regardless of where the cleaners are.

In the case of chemicals, information about their safety is vital. MSDS information is required and readily available at these distributors locations. Since chemicals can change names, formulations and strengths, this distributor will be the best and easiest place to find what is happening in this important element of the cleaning process.

Training, in the various chemicals and different ways of applying them, can be undertaken in this place. The use of different soft supplies to apply them may be the problem and can be shown and understood a little better. Tools, or in this case, supplies, along with information can be a time and cost saving proposition.

Equipment, such as floor machines will be available on display and ready to be tried out as well. This is a good place to try out that new carpet cleaner, on an actual carpet in the back room, before spending money on it. The appropriate cleansers can be looked at and techniques can be watched and then applied.

Upright vacuums as well as backpack units can be examined up close and personal. Comparing these as in side by side demonstrations is always helpful when thinking about a basic cleaning tool. Checking the effectiveness of a bagged model against one that has no bag can be very informative. This makes you understand the difference between clean and not so clean.

Learning about different mopping systems, regardless of which you think is the best, can be illuminating. The many string mops and flat mop systems can become overwhelming if the cleaner is used to just one type. Buckets, and recovery systems, such as a backpack for removing the laid solution, can be explained and explored right there at the store.

One of the things or activities that will make the learning about the right tools, equipment and supplies easier is the ability to talk with leaders in the local cleaning industries. Knowing people, by sight and reputation, will be easy when you are talking with them face to face., They are usually a fairly sharing sort, even if it is just to brag. It is also a motivating source of mutual strength in a field that is greatly misunderstood.

Access to tools, supplies, equipment and more importantly, information is what these distributors are set up for. Finding out the latest chemical formulations can help and what they can do to other surfaces they are designed for is also helpful. The conversations that are available from customers, employees and even the vendors as they move in and out will help cleaning companies, and their representatives know more about their industry.
