Carpet SquaresSome of those factors include foot traffic, climate and facility use.

These procedures include daily vacuuming, interim processes, periodic deep cleaning and training staffs as to the proper chemical and equipment selection and employing ideal procedures to match specific tasks.

Traditional products are being revamped, upgraded and remodeled to promote ergonomics, productivity and overall safety.

In some cases, training is required for complete understanding of newer products, but manufacturers are working steadfast to make the equipment easier and more intuitive.

As such, several manufacturers are reformulating their products to be less caustic and safer not only for end user and building occupant health, but the environment, too.
