Follow these essential tips to clean your anti-fatigue mats.
Whether you’re in a restaurant or a warehouse, there’s a good chance that you will encounter anti-fatigue mats. These mats are designed to help you maintain traction and stay safe in the presence of excess dirt, water, grease, or oil. They also provide some relief to employees who are required to stand for extended periods of time. Like many things around your workplace, proper care will ensure they last for as long as possible. What is the best way to clean anti-fatigue mats at your business?
Use the Right Cleaner
To clean anti-fatigue mats, you must choose the right cleaning supplies or risk damaging the mat. Use a degreaser, detergent, or soap mixed with hot water to remove grime and other greases on the surface. Never use water that is hotter than 140 degrees or colder than 120 degrees. You should generally clean your mats once a week to prevent grease from damaging the mat permanently.
Sweep or Brush Daily
You should also clean anti-fatigue mats on a daily basis by brushing or sweeping them. This will remove large pieces of debris before they have a chance to abrade the surface. Never use a machine washer to scrub the mats, as this is too harsh. Instead, use a standard broom or brush to get rid of light dirt.
Professional Laundering
Finally, one of the best and easiest ways to clean anti-fatigue mats is by letting someone else do it! Grizzly Mats offers a commercial floor mat laundering service that keeps all of your mats in top shape. Professionals understand how to safely and thoroughly clean mats without doing any damage to the material that might lead to premature wear and tear.
