Window cleaning in nurseries, kindergartens, and nurseries.

Innovative window cleaning solution reduces workload and costs. Institutions for children are subject to high standards in terms of hygiene and cleanliness. These apply in particular to all glazed surfaces integrated into doors, partitions, and windows.

Indeed, these windows are frequently touched and are often soiled while children play. In order to reduce the workload of the cleaning staff and to minimize the potential danger for children from inhaling the mist loaded with cleaning solution, the daycare center has just opted for a cleaning solution that convinces both by its ergonomics and its profitability rather than by its protection of health.

Children who learn and play together follow the principle of open working. This is reflected not only in the educational approach but also in the architecture of the premises.

The large glass surfaces let natural light into the rooms, creating a pleasant atmosphere that invites play.

A great deal of traffic passes through glass doors, partitions, and windows daily. In addition, children like to draw on the windows from time to time, and splashes of food and drink can dirty the glass surfaces. Therefore, to remove dirt and the germs that proliferate there, it is important to regularly clean the inside of the windows,” explains Astrid Schultheis, the director of the daycare. Each child care center must prepare a cleaning plan that describes when, how, and what to do to keep the premises clean under the hygiene guidelines. 

Interior glazed surfaces are among the classic maintenance cleaning tasks. The elimination of daily soiling, due to sebum and dirt particles, represents the main load of the work. The low-level toilet mirrors, already dirty at midday, are a perfect example. The mirrors must be cleaned daily and the dirt and traces left by the smallest are often at knee level of the adults, so the cleaning should be always carried out in a curved position, which represents a significant and painful effort for the personnel of cleaning – especially when these jobs are done in the traditional way with a rag and a sprayer and require only one arm. In order to facilitate the work of the employees of the company, the cleaning company is in charge of the building. This innovation enables faster, more flexible, more ergonomic, more ecological, and simpler interior window cleaning than before.

Evenly distributed effort reduces workload

The managers of the daycare center had previously called on SCS Group, an expert in cleaning and hygiene, for extensive advice. The advantage of being able to use the glass cleaning system tool with two hands is one of the main reasons for the choice. This enables equal distribution of effort throughout both shoulders and arms. The concentration on one part of the body, for example, because of the daily work with a cloth and a sprayer, can be avoided altogether. It is also no longer necessary to regularly bend down to clean hard-to-reach places or to set down the sprayer, according to the SCS Group building cleaning specialist.

Thanks to its ergonomic design–the triangular shape characteristic of the microfiber TriPad – the glass cleaning system makes it easier to reach hard-to-reach places and clean them. The new Easy-Click pole system, adjustable, even makes it easy to reach heights of four meters. That’s why a glass cleaning system is ideal for child care centers or the office, where windows are often cluttered with objects that impede the passage of cleaning personnel or require the use of tools such as ladders. With a glass cleaning system, we can simply remove dirt while standing.

Quickly applied, economical in consumption

 A glass cleaning system lets you spray and clean at the same time. With this cleaning tool, which just needs to be affixed to the glass, and with its ultra-cleaning pad, even stubborn and adherent dirt can be removed effectively. Users can thus clean surfaces much faster – time savings of up to 25%. The result of the study show the time and consumption required for cleaning interior windows carried out by the SCS Group. The conclusions of this study make the job of cleaning much easier and faster.

Another advantage: the integrated battery-powered spray system with an activation button on the handheld device. On each Easy-Click pole makes working more comfortable and makes manual spraying superfluous. Just press the button and start.

 The glass cleaning system is also convincing with its economical consumption. Especially compared to conventional interior window cleaning using a sprayer and cloth. A cloth quickly gets too wet. I usually use too much cleaning solution, which I spray too much into the air. In addition, the surface takes too long to dry completely.

The built-in spray system prevents cleaning fluid from spreading to unwanted areas, eliminating time-consuming wiping and finishing.

High health protection, maximum occupational safety

Cleaning work during the day requires ensuring that the chemicals used do not pose a risk to children. “The advantage of the glass cleaning system is its pocket of glass cleaner located inside the device. The integrated and covered spray mechanism effectively protects children and the user from inhaling the sprayed product. A significant advantage in terms of occupational health and safety prevention.

Simple handling–even without professional experience

We entrust the cleaning of the interior windows to building cleaning professionals. Because of the autonomous, intuitive and simple use of the glass cleaning system, people can also use it in a safe way with no experience in professional window cleaning. Educators can intervene as needed in cleaning. They can wash the windows after a child has spilled something. They can clean the glass after drawing on it with saliva, and so on.
