Deep Cleaning & Degreasing for Altro and Polysafe Flooring
Safety flooring is designed to save lives by preventing slips, but its abrasive surface makes it a magnet for ingrained dirt and grease.
What you are looking at
- Restores the manufacturer's original slip-resistance rating.
- Removes deeply ingrained grease and bio-burden in kitchens.
- Specialist chemistry for Altro, Polysafe, and Tarkett brands.
- High-pressure extraction flushes soil from around the grip granules.
- Essential for meeting health and safety (HSE) requirements.
Safety floors (like Altro or Polysafe) contain carborundum or quartz crystals that provide grip. These same crystals act like a cheese grater on mops, shredding the fibres and trapping them, along with grease and soil, in the gaps between the granules.
In a commercial kitchen or clinical environment, this build-up is a major hygiene risk. Traditional cleaning often fails because the soil is literally 'hooked' into the surface. We use high-torque orbital scrubbing and specialist alkaline degreasers to break the bond and lift the soil clear.
Why businesses ask us for this
- • Safety floors require mechanical agitation to remove soil from the textured surface.
- • Cleaning restores the critical slip-resistance properties of the floor.
- • Regular degreasing is vital for hygiene in food and medical environments.
The 'grey' floor problem: why mops fail
Have you noticed your blue or green safety floor turning grey in the middle? That's not wear; it's soil trapped in the texture. Mops only clean the 'peaks' of the granules, while the soil settles in the 'valleys'.
Our equipment uses brushes with varying lengths that reach into those valleys, agitating the soil so it can be vacuum-extracted. The result is a dramatic restoration of the floor's original colour.
Hygiene in clinical and food prep areas
In hospitals and kitchens, the build-up in safety flooring can harbour bacteria. Our deep cleaning process includes sanitising agents that ensure the floor is as hygienically clean as it is visually clean.
