by Ann Withanee — October 31, 2011—Rubbermaid Commercial Products (RCP), a provider of solution-based commercial products, introduced its new Rubbermaid HYGEN Clean Water System, which it describes as the only floor-cleaning system to feature a unique water filter integrated into the mop bucket to generate clean water. The result, says Rubbermaid, is a cleaner mop and floor. The integrated water filter improves cost-in-use and sustainability by reducing water and chemical usage and increasing worker productivity, reportedly saving a typical facility about $6,000 a year in labor costs.
Facilities personnel will find that the cleaning system meets many needs, from healthier environments to bottom-line time and money savings. Rubbermaid explains that the system’s integrated water filter was specifically designed with the bottom line and end user in mind to improve productivity and to reduce water and chemical usage to create healthier, safer environments.
Designed to promote green cleaning with streak-free coverage and improved cost efficiency, the new Rubbermaid HYGEN Clean Water System is durable up to 1,000 launderings for best cost-in-use.
The Rubbermaid HYGEN Clean Water System consists of a one-of-a-kind filter bucket and wringer and nine specially engineered microfiber mops. The integrated filter bucket and wringer improves productivity and reduces chemical/water waste. The twin roller design requires 50 percent less force to wring compared to a traditional side press wringer. The double-sided folding mop frame attaches and detaches with ease, and the stainless steel construction enhances durability.
Rubbermaid offers these additional benefits:
- Double-sided microfiber mop removes 99.9 percent of microorganisms
- Proven to remove up to 99.9 percent of microorganisms
- Superior durability offers best cost-in-use, up to 1,000 launderings
- Cleans floor 45 percent better and up to 20 percent faster than string mops
- Double-sided design covers up to 500 square feet with one wring
- Nine specially engineered double-sided mops for a wide variety of floor types and cleaning tasks
Rubbermaid pulse microfiber floor-cleaning system with double-sided frame accomplishes dusting and damp mopping with one tool when used with Microfiber Dust & Wet Mop Plus. Its high-capacity refillable reservoir holds enough of solution to clean up to 850 square feet of floor space, and its red ergonomic trigger handle dispenses three streams of cleaning solution with each press.
