How often do you clean the carpet in the office? Carpet is an elegant and welcoming piece of furniture that decorates many environments, from apartments to offices. The use of carpet in offices is more widespread than you think. In fact, during our work we realized that it is often used to furnish the entrance to the offices of many companies.
But how often should you clean carpeted offices ?
More often than you think.
When we carry out an inspection in a carpeted environment, our customers tell us that they do a thorough cleaning only 1 or maximum 2 times a year.
This is a big mistake.
Dirt may not be seen with the naked eye but it has a heavy effect on our immune system.
Ordinary office cleaning is not enough when dealing with carpet .
Suffice it to say that, in addition to the normal dirt that accumulates every day on a normal floor, the carpet is impregnated with bacteria and dust that are difficult to be eliminated with normal cleaning.
It is necessary to rely on a cleaning agency able to periodically perform a sanitation.
Savings on the service, but is it really a saving?
What you need to know when choosing to furnish your office with carpet is that this is the perfect place for bacteria to nest and consequently affect the illnesses of our employees.
Unfortunately, it often happens that, for a matter of costs, the carpet is not cleaned as often as necessary. The problem that is not thought about is that employee health also comes at a price.
The health of your staff, in fact, is certainly more expensive than a cleaning service. Think of the company receptionist’s periods of illness and the time other employees lost having to replace her job.
Poor office cleaning can become a bigger expense than you imagine!
In order not to pay for a sanitation done properly, you will end up paying the staff who stay at home more often.
The best solution for cleaning carpet? Replace it!
Even if carpet is fashionable today, it is not the best solution for furnishing offices from a hygienic point of view.
The most heartfelt advice is to remove the carpet and replace it with other flooring.
But this is not always possible, perhaps because the place is rented, and the owner does not agree, as often happens.
Our advice is to wash it as much as possible, at least 4/5 times a year. In this way, possible allergies or diseases of the people will be avoided.
Relying on a professional office cleaning agency in these cases is an excellent decision.
The professionals of the sector carry out the washing of the carpet using powerful vacuum cleaners and ad hoc machinery to eliminate up to the last residue of dust.
We at SCS Group also offer this service. We cater to both offices and schools, businesses and private homes.
