ECJ EUROPEAN Cleaning Journal

As ISSA/INTERCLEAN Central & Eastern Europe opens in Warsaw, Poland, ECJ previews the new products being launched there.

Diversey

The key themes of the Diversey stand are sustainability and innovation. Among the new product launches are scrubber dryers and additions to the chemical concentrates systems.

The latest addition to the TASKI by Diversey range is the battery powered TASKI swingo 4000 scrubber dryer. It cleans up to 6,500 square metres between tank refills and is suitable for round-the-clock operations in retail, transport, healthcare and other large-scale applications.

SmartDose is a dosing system for daily cleaning with EU Flower concentrates, incorporating a patented dual-setting dispenser that doses product accurately and consistently into spray bottles, buckets, sinks or scrubber dryers. Three EU Flower products are available to cover all main daily building care tasks while a fourth product is available for disinfecting floors and other surfaces.

QuattroSelect is a wall-mounted system for larger sites using three or four concentrates, with a lockable cabinet accommodating four concentrate pouches. Products can be dispensed in different dilution ratios for filling any combination of spray bottles at low flow rates and buckets and scrubber dryers at high flow rates.

ResiNet is a cleaner for removing resin and adhesive agent residues in gym areas. Developed by Pramol, it can be used with a cleaning machine or applied manually, and also removes thick, dried-on layers.

Said to prolong the life of wooden floors with correct use, these solutions encompass basic cleaning, maintenance cleaning, deep cleaning and aftercare.

Microfibre cloths, mops, mop frames, handles, soap dispensers and dusters are among the products on the Stadsing stand.

Stadsing says the system eliminates the need for bringing out a cleaning trolley for small spillages in busy areas.

The company has also developed the Dan-Mop Quick Antibac mop. Made from a mixture of microfibre and polyester, it is designed for damp and wet conditions. Stadsing says it can kill the majority of bacteria it comes into contact with.
