Why Cleaning Products Distributors Have The Best Tools And Equipment For You

By Marci Glover


When starting a new janitorial business, you may not have all of the knowledge you need to purchase the products you need. There are a lot of different cleaning supplies and all of them must be useful or you are wasting money. Even if you have been in business for a while, it does not hurt to up date your tool box and make sure everything works the way you need it to. That is where cleaning products distributors come in handy.

The various brands and models of everything you use will present you with a range of quality. You want to have the best as you do not want to have to replace it too quickly. You need to have a location that will have a large number of the alternatives so you can make that informed choice.

You will be looking into floor machines, whether it is for hard surface maintenance or carpet vacuuming and shampooing. Scrubbers, buffers and carpet machines have a lot of different brands, models and speeds. Then there are the high speed buffers for that wet look on waxed floors. The upright vacuums, the back packs and all of the many attachments will need to be looked at.

Chemicals are a complicated mess unless you have the input from the professionals serving you and the others who come in. Glass cleaner is the most popular chemical along side the harshest solutions and are available for your selection. Cleaning is the act of using a solution to remove contaminants from a surface, so chemicals will always be needed.

All sorts of tools are necessary depending on the cleaning involved. You may need a putty knife for various reasons. Brushes of many different types will be helpful. Pumice stones are needed if you or your employees know how to use them. When setting up a cleaners cart, there are a lot of things that can come in handy and many cleaners have their own preferences. All of these can be explained and a class given by the professionals working in this location.

Cloths and sponges are another category of supplies. The use of micro fibers has been very popular for the last 10 to 15 years. Terry cloth towels are still being used for the extremely dirty areas and paper towels are used in a pinch. The different uses of these can be learned by trial and error but also by listening to the professionals who man the stores where you can purchase all of these.

Knowing what are the best tools and equipment for you takes trying them out before you buy. That means you can use the space the store has for this purpose and actually know what it feels like to strip a hard surface floor. Know how to run a carpet machine. Find out how efficient a particular vacuum is compared to another one.

The things that impresses many people, the first time they enter this type of store, is the friendly atmosphere. The many people who show up will be professionals in their own companies. They will show you things that you might not have seen before. Since many of these people, including the employees of the store, have been or are involved in training, this is the perfect time to pick their brains a little.
