The office restroom can either be a neutral space employees feel at ease visiting, or exactly the opposite. Proper restroom maintenance is essential for creating a clean, comfortable, and hygienic environment.

Follow these tips to ensure a squeaky-clean bathroom:

• Tip 1: Establish a routine cleaning schedule to ensure restrooms are cleaned consistently. High-traffic areas should be cleaned multiple times a day.
• Tip 2: Keep a good supply of disinfectants, sanitisers, toilet bowl cleaners, paper towels, hand soap and hand sanitiser at the ready.
• Tip 3: Provide waste bins with liners and replace and sanitise them regularly.
• Tip 4: Mop and disinfect restroom floors daily. Pay attention to corners, grout lines, and areas around toilets and sinks.
• Tip 5: Clean and disinfect toilets and urinals daily, including the flush handles and surrounding surfaces.
• Tip 6: Ensure that soap dispensers are filled, and hand dryers or paper towel dispensers are in good working order.
• Tip 7: Regularly clean and sanitise sinks, faucets, and counters.
• Tip 8: Maintain good ventilation to prevent unpleasant odours and improve air quality. Consider using air fresheners or odour-neutralising products.
• Tip 9: Inspect the condition of the restrooms frequently.
• Tip 10: Post hygiene reminders and guidelines to encourage proper use and cleanliness.

The difference between disinfecting and sanitising

Disinfecting aims to kill or eliminate bacteria, viruses, and fungi, reducing the risk of infection.

Whereas sanitising significantly reduces the number of bacteria to a safe level.

To disinfect: Use Cleaning Warehouse’s Savtol, Domestic Cleaner, or Bleach daily on high-risk surfaces (like toilet flushes and doorknobs) and floors in restrooms after cleaning. (Follow contact time instructions.)

To sanitise: Use Cleaning Warehouse’s Anti-Bacterial Multi-Surface Wipes daily to sanitise sinks, faucets, counters and waste bins.

At Cleaning Warehouse, your health and hygiene are our priority. Our extensive range of disinfectants and sanitisers are highly effective at eliminating harmful pathogens from the office and home.
