Hotels need to turn rooms quickly to meet occupancy and revenue targets, but interim carpet maintenance using a standard carpet extractor requires several hours of drying time. When traditional techniques were unable to meet their demanding requirements for speed, cleanliness, and customer satisfaction, a luxury resort turned to Maintex for help.
Absenteeism is disruptive to learning and directly impacts a school’s bottom line. One problem area for schools is restrooms, which can be difficult to keep clean and sanitary. Maintex introduced a touch-free restroom cleaning system, helping the school district to improve cleaning times and outcomes while reducing labor costs.
As customers idle in drive lanes, their cars drip oil, grease, and dirt that combine to form slippery conditions and unsightly stains. Over time, these stains soak deep into the concrete, resisting cleaning. A restaurant chain needed a foolproof ongoing maintenance program to eliminate buildup and keep drive lanes looking their best. Maintex introduced the Tennant T1B Cordless Walk Behind Micro Scrubber. This battery-powered machine is durable, easily maneuverable, and the perfect size for restaurants short on space.
As more people move to highly populated urban living centers, expectations from tenants of luxury housing communities continue to rise. More and more residents are bringing pets that require time spent outside. Pets relieve themselves in green belt areas – often on synthetic turf – as well as having occasional “accidents” in other areas of the facility. If not properly treated, the resulting odors can become unpleasant.
Cruise ships are floating cities, meeting the needs of thousands of passengers. Stocking guest cabins with disposable amenities on this scale is costly, time-consuming, and wasteful. A cruise ship was able to reduce room amenity costs by 80% through the implementation of Maintex Orange Blossom soap, shampoo, conditioner, and lotion products. Attractive, refillable dispensing units replaced a plethora of individually-packaged 1 oz. amenities. Instead of throwing out tens of thousands of tiny plastic bottles, housekeeping staff now quickly and efficiently refill just the product that has been consumed. This results in substantial cost and labor savings, as well as a reduction in landfill waste.
Hundreds of people can touch a piece of gym equipment each day, exposing it to a buildup of sweat, grime, and germs. Keeping equipment clean is an ongoing challenge, and patrons demand to see that fitness clubs care about keeping them healthy.
Forty-four percent of patient rooms contain pathogens including C. Diff after cleaning with traditional dust mops and cleaning cloths. Standard laundering does not effectively sterilize these reusable products, and may actually increase the risk of further spreading harmful pathogens.
