Industrial Cleaning in Pittsburgh
The City of Bridges is so nicknamed because of the hundreds of bridges that span the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers, which meet to form the Ohio River in the region's Downtown. Pittsburgh has a long history of being an industrial center. While the traditional mining and steel industries, which once helped the area flourish and gave the city its well-known nickname of Steel City, have mostly wound down, new industries such as technology, healthcare, and the energy industry are helping the region and city to thrive in the twenty-first century. US Steel is still a major employer and industry in the region, and their offices are clustered in the Downtown District around Penn Avenue, Grant Street, and Muriel Street. Other well-known industries include the Kraft Heinz co., who maintain an innovation center in Keystone Summit Park in Warren dale. The old Kraft Heinz plant in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania no longer makes any kinds of ketchup but instead is owned by River bend foods, which make baby food and soups. Ampco Pittsburgh and Allegheny Technology also employ many at their mills in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area.

Disinfection of Industries according to CDC guidelines
The COVID-19 worldwide pandemic has locked down industries and cities around the world. It is now necessary in this new world to pay particular attention to disinfection and sanitation in the workplace. Commercial Janitorial provides disinfection services for industries in the Pittsburgh region. Common disinfectants in use include alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen chloride, chlorine and other CDC and EPA approved disinfecting agents. These disinfectants kill or neutralize the viruses, bacteria and any other pathogens which may cause and spread disease in an industrial setting.
Using media blasting in industries
This is an abrasive cleaning method, and strip cleans any layers of rust, dirt, grease, varnish, or paints before repair or restoration of any industrial machines or surfaces. The abrasive materials used include sand, soda or dry ice. They are sprayed at great pressure onto the surface, which has to be cleaned. The abrasive material chosen and the amount of pressure exerted is calibrated according to the surface which has to be cleaned.
Power washing
Water is sprayed with great pressure to dislodge ingrained dirt, dust, grime and grease from any machine or surface. Parking lots and exteriors may also be cleaned with the help of pressurized washers. Professional cleaners are aware of the pressure which should be exerted on any given surface and adjust the power washer's pressure accordingly.
De-greasing
Professional cleaning teams may use a de-greaser such as a butyl containing cleaner to remove layers of grease, motor oil or unattached rust which may be present on any machinery or surface.
Floor and carpet care
Stone floors may be cleaned with daily vacuuming and mopping. Stone floors are also periodically honed, buffed, polished and sealed. Wood and vinyl floors may also require periodic staining, polishing and resealing to prevent moisture damage. Sealants used include materials such as acrylic and oil or water-based polyurethane. Sealants prevent stains and scratches as well as water damage.
Window cleaning
Windows on higher buildings may be cleaned with the help of scissor lifts or with the construction of temporary scaffolding. Windows which are at a height of less then 75 feet may be cleaned with the help of a carbon fiber pole which sprays de-ionized water to the window which are to be cleaned. Interior windows are cleaned with the help of a scrim and chamois in a traditional way. Nowadays robot window cleaners may also be used which use magnets, brushes and vacuums to clean windows.
