Disinfection in an Industrial Setting
Industrial buildings must preserve the health of workers and management to make sure that the industry can continue to work, produce, and thrive in Portland. Commercial Janitorial staff are trained to disinfect and sanitize industrial premises according to CDC guidelines. Commercial Janitorial staff use CDC and EPA approved disinfecting agents for the sanitation of industrial settings. Disinfectants in common use are hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, or chlorine.
Maintaining workplaces according to OSHA sanitation standards
OSHA standards clearly state minimum standards of sanitation and hygiene in the workplace and in industrial settings in the United States. Commercial Janitorial staff are aware of OSHA standards and work to meet or exceed basic standards for the maintenance of health and well being of workers, management, and visitors in industrial settings. Commercial Janitorial staff knows how to maintain floors, workrooms and machinery and the cleaning methods which should be employed to keep areas safe and clean.
Floor care
Stone floors may be vacuumed, wet, and dry mopped. Stone floors are periodically honed to prevent any lippage and buffed to smooth them out. Floors may also be polished and sealed to prevent scratches, stains, and water damage.
Steam cleaning
Steam removes most stains and will kill any microorganisms since it employs vapors which are heated to great temperatures. Steam cleaning methods may be used on carpets, rugs, and upholstery in offices. Steam cleaning may also be used to kill molds and prevent their spread.
Industrial machinery cleaning
Industrial machines may be cleaned with the help of abrasive media blasting. This includes sandblasting, soda blasting, and dry ice blasting. The abrasive materials are sprayed at great pressure onto the surface, which is to be cleaned. This method strips layers of grease, oil, rust, varnish, or paint as needed. It can be used as a method of restoration or before repairs as well as for cleaning purposes. Sandblasting is also used to clean tough stains and rust from exteriors, walls, and concrete floors as well as industrial machinery.
HVAC system maintenance
The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems must be cleaned properly to prevent the buildup of dust and dirt in the vents and ducts which make up the HVAC system. Clogged ducts and vents will reduce the air quality of the interiors in any building as well as deteriorate the air conditioning and heating capabilities of the system. This will reduce the health and comfort levels of workers and management in an industrial setting.
Mold remediation
Mold is re-mediated with the help of a mold killing agent known as a biocide. The remaining spores are neutralized by an encapsulating technique. Mold may also be killed by steam cleaning, which can be used in combination with the biocide.
Waste disposal according to OSHA regulations
Waste is disposed of according to OSHA regulations for waste disposal. Waste is gathered and removed from the workplace in a sanitary way.
