It is often said that attention to detail and changing the little things are what can give a business momentum. While it is fair to say that the use of industrial cleaning wipes in any type of business might not be the first business decision on any CEO’s to-do list, the reality is that industrial wipes can make a huge difference to your business.
After all, in any and all busy working environments, cleaning needs to be completed quickly, consistently and reliably. It makes little to no difference whether you’re dealing with oil and grease on a factory floor, dust in a warehouse, spills in an industrial workshop or hygiene requirements in a food environment; industrial cleaning wipes are the practical solution that you have been searching for. With no need for additional cleaning materials, these cloths will leave your surfaces perfectly clean, and are always easy to grab should an emergency spillage occur.
Although it might be tempting to use standard household wipes, industrial wipes from Davis & Moore have been specifically designed for tougher tasks, larger surfaces and for use in much more challenging conditions. Let’s dig a little deeper and explain what exactly industrial cleaning wipes are, where they tend to be used, the different types on the marketplace today and how to choose the best wipes for your workplace.
What Are Industrial Workshop Wipes?
Industrial cleaning wipes are heavy-duty, disposable or reusable wipes designed for cleaning in commercial and industrial settings. They’re typically stronger, thicker, and more absorbent than household wipes, making them suitable for removing:
- Oil, grease and lubricants
- Adhesives, sealants and inks
- Dirt, dust and metal particles
- Paint, resin and coatings
- General spills and surface contamination
They’re often used as part of routine cleaning schedules, maintenance tasks, hygiene controls, or as a quick “grab-and-go” solution when a spill happens unexpectedly.
What Are The Key Reasons Behind The Rapid Rise in the popularity of Industrial Wipes?
At Davis & Moore, we work with and supply hundreds of companies up and down the country and having spoken at length to our customers, there are five main reasons behind their popularity. Here are the five main advantages people regularly tell us about
1. Convenience and Speed
When a spill happens, the last thing people need to worry about is finding the appropriate cloths the best type of cleaning chemicals, filling buckets of water to mix the cleaning solution and then finding a mop or other tool. The majority of the wipes from Davis & Moore come ready-to-use in tubs, packets, or dispenser systems, allowing staff to clean on demand.
2. Consistent Results
Industrial wipes deliver a consistent level of cleaning performance every time because they are manufactured for specific purposes. This makes them perfect for use in workplaces which need to comply with hygiene standards, strict inspections, or safety procedures.
3. Reduced Cross-Contamination
Because industrial wipes are meant to be disposable and therefore only used once, they dramatically reduce the risk of cross-contamination because they are not reused across multiple areas.
4. They Help To Keep Your Workshop and Staff Safe
Because they are so quick and easy to use, and deliver proven results, your staff are much more likely to clean up a spill rather than leaving it for someone else to do. This means that the chances of a slip, trip or fall in the workplace are significantly reduced.
5. Stronger Than Standard Wipes
Working in an industrial area dictates that the cleaning materials required need to be able to stand up to those tougher needs. Our industrial wipes are much less likely to tear or break down when cleaning rough surfaces, clearing up sharp debris or even the most stubborn of grime.
Types of Industrial Cleaning Wipes
Not all industrial wipes are the same. It is important that you have the knowledge to purchase the right type of cloth depending on what you’re cleaning, the environment, and any safety requirements.
Dry Industrial Wipes
These types of wipes are perfect for general cleaning and dust removal, think of a modern equivalent to an old-style duster. They can be used on their own for dusting or in conjunction with. cleaning sprays or solvents.
Wet or Pre-Saturated Wipes
Most people will know these as wet wipes, which essentially have a cleaning agent, degreaser or disinfectant pre-loaded. They are perfect for quick cleaning tasks, for cleaning touchpoints and removing grease without the need for any additional cleaning materials.
Heavy-Duty Degreasing Wipes
For garages or any business that operates in an oil-heavy environment, these wipes are textured to assist with the removal of stubborn grime. Check the packaging, but most of these types of wipes are also safe for hands as well as surfaces.
Disinfectant or Sanitising Wipes
As the name suggests, these are designed for situations where hygiene is paramount. They often will meet specific standards depending on which industry they are used for and their intended use.
