  • Why you should change to Microfibre Flat mopping

Why would you want to think about changing what you use to mop the floor?

Thinking about the traditional mopping process – a mop and wringer bucket filled with sudsy chemicals. The cleaner needs to drag the heavy bucket around to get the job done.

Whereas the Microfibre flat mop has revolutionised cleaning. It can be used dry as a dust mop or wet to clean floors, right up to the edges without dirtying the walls. It’s a convenient way to mop and is perfect for spot cleaning throughout the day.

With a traditional mop and bucket this is what you end up with:

  1. Dirty mop water in your bucket that isn’t replaced frequently enough. How often do you see a cleaner dragging a mop bucket around filled with dirty water?
  2. Dirty mop water spread over the floor with the dirty mop, which defeats the purpose of cleaning
  3. Dark grout created by the dirty water and chemicals which have soaked in and left to dry
  4. Fatigue from the repetitious process of wringing the heavy mop
  5. A higher risk of slips, trips and falls as a result of buckets left out in open areas and slippery chemicals not being rinsed away
  6. Dirty watermarks on walls where the wet mop hits while mopping the edges

 The microfibre flat mop difference:

  1. The microfibre flat mop is light and pre-soaked pads and they will replace the traditional mop bucket.
  2. Just add cold water along with the correct chemical into a small bucket soak pad and wring out.
  3. One microfibre pad should clean approximately 30-40m2 before needing to be replaced with a clean one.
  4. Carefully walk backward and mop in a figure 8 motion to ensure the area is completely covered and you’re not walking where you have just cleaned.
  5. Replacing the dirty pad regularly will prevent cross-contamination as well as keep the floors and grout cleaner longer.

When the microfibre pad is full of dirt, simply take off for laundering and replace it with a clean one.
