Tips on Keeping Your White and Magnolia Factory Floors Clean

Unfortunately, white and bright floors can quickly become dirty and discoloured. This can be a serious enough issue in domestic properties. These factories have to deal with a wide range of potentially damaging issues, including: 

  • Heavy Footfall – A large number of people will pass through your industrial space on a daily basis. Your employees, even if they wear completely clean footwear, can cause damage to your flooring simply through wear and tear. 
  • Impacts – Many industrial floors are forced to suffer all kinds of heavy impacts. Dropped stock and fallen machinery can quickly damage all kinds of floors. Heavy machinery, and vehicles like forklifts, can all cause serious damage to a factory floor. 
  • Machinery Waste and Manufacturing Dust – Even factories and manufacturing plants with the highest cleanliness can all suffer from general waste. Many machines give off small amounts of dust and dirt during their manufacturing process. This waste can quickly build up, causing your white floor to look dirty and become discoloured.

Each of these issues can lead to damage across your factory floor. They can cause your surface to become discoloured and dirty. As such, you need to ensure that your industrial surface is cleaned to a professional standard on a regular basis.

How to Clean a White Factory Floor?

First of all, you should arrange for your factory floor to be cleaned on a regular basis. It is advisable, for some factories, to ensure that it is fully cleaned every week. The same can be said of warehouses and any industrial space. By preventing dirt from remaining on your surfaces for many weeks, you can stop them from discolouring or becoming ingrained in your workplace.

You should also ensure that any spillages or serious hazards are cleaned up as quickly as possible. Remove the waste or liquid and wash the surface with warm, soapy water. If your paint has been applied correctly, and treated with the right kind of sealants, it should be extremely resistant to long-term damages, stains and discolouring.

An effective clean for your industrial space can take several hours, depending on its size. You can either involve your employees in cleaning their own spaces or bring in outside help during out-of-work hours.

If your floor has been treated correctly, and you clean regularly, warm, soapy water should be enough to deal with any dirt in your workplace. You should try to avoid chemicals when possible, and only bring them in when you cannot deal with dirt and discolouring yourself.
