Sometimes, traditional cleaning
methods just aren’t sufficient for certain purposes. Chemicals can’t always be
used, and where infection control is necessary, there are only certain cleaning
methods that fit the bill, particularly where food preparation and healthcare
are concerned.
MRSA and other superbugs are a
major concern and the solution preferred by the NHS and private healthcare
providers for the most part tends to be steam cleaning. This would suggest that
steam cleaning offers wider benefits. Here we look at the top four reasons
behind these benefits.
Reason 1: It reaches the parts other cleaning can’t reach
Steam kills germs, dissolves
grease and sanitises surfaces. It infiltrates nooks, crannies, crevices and
cracks, in other words, all the places traditional cleaning methods cannot
reach. Steam cleaning attacks dust mites, germs, mould and fungus. It’s great
on glass and mirrors where it leaves a streak-free finish, and perfect for
cleansing fridges, freezers, work surfaces, filters and bins.
Reason 2: It’s detergent free
Detergents don’t usually feature
with steam cleaning, although it is possible to use them in certain settings. Where
the use of detergents is not desirable, maybe where an environmentally friendly
cleaning solution is preferred, the steam alone will deliver adequate cleaning
and sanitisation power. In other words, steam cleaning can provide the ideal
eco-friendly option.
Reason 3: Quick-drying
Because steam evaporates rapidly, surfaces dry a lot quicker
than they do with water. This makes for a far more efficient cleaning process.
It also reduces water consumption and cuts labour costs.
Reason 4: Highly Effective
Steam cleaning is effective in
removing stubborn substances, for example glue, chewing gum and wax. It is
suitable for most surfaces other than certain fabrics such as silk and velour,
paper and cardboard and anything covered in water-based paint, but always remember
to test an inconspicuous area before proceeding.
Choosing a Steam Cleaner
There are various commercial
steam cleaners on the market such as the Coccinella Commercial Steam
Cleaner, one of the most popular models we sell. It works on kitchen and
work surface grease, cooking equipment and hotplates and is ideal for
sanitising waste receptacles, toilets, showers and changing rooms. In addition,
this model will effectively clean glass mirrors; it powers through gum and is a
powerful stain remover for upholstery and carpets.
