How to clean and maintain safety flooring


Manual Cleaning

  1. Sweep up dust and dirt, remove large debris.
  2. Using a microfibre mop, apply a solution of AltroClean 44™ or equivalent alkaline cleaner to the floor in the correct dilution and leave for several minutes. (The dilution rate depends upon how dirty the floor is and the concentrate used (see separate AltroClean 44 and 44+ data sheets for further information).
  3. Scrub with a deck scrubber or the Altro UniPad cleaning pad attached to a multi mop handle.
  4. Rinse the floor with warm clean water, removing the dirty water from the floor with a microfibre mop and allow it to dry. Use a double bucket to ensure that the floor is rinsed well with clean water.
