Tips to Reduce Dust in the Industry
Finding dust in your Industry is no fun, and it often seems that no matter how much you clean, it keeps coming back.
Did you know that the average 1000 Sq Ft space collects 5 Kgs of dust and allergens in their air ducts every year?
While no amount of cleaning will completely remove the dust in your space, these tips are proven ways that will help.
1. Clean from top to bottom. Clean the highest surfaces first and work your way down, so you capture any dust you missed.
2. Remove clutter from floors. Don’t ignore piles of materials and stocks. Cleaning around them won’t take care of the dust that has settled in or around them.
3. Say “no” to carpeting. It may look gorgeous, but carpeted floors are high-maintenance and magnets for dust mites. They should be vacuumed daily, but even that may not be enough for people with severe allergies. If you’re attached to your carpet, consider investing in a vacuum cleaner with a double-layered micro-filter bag or a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter, which prevents dust from being re-introduced into the air. Otherwise, stick to hardwood, vinyl, linoleum or tile flooring.
4. Mop the floors. A wet mop will collect the dust that you missed after sweeping. The longer you leave it, the harder it will be, so give it a go today!
5. Take it outside. Dust from rugs and mats should be rubbed out of your space.
6. Duster do’s and don’ts. Feather dusters only aggravate existing dust and cause it to settle elsewhere around your Industry. Instead, use a damp cloth or moist towelette to wipe down surfaces.
7. Clean air ducts & vents to prevent dust. Dirty air vents can build up a dust, dirt and grime layer. Give it a good clean and this will improve ventilation.
8. Air Filters. Reduce dust particles entering your space from the open windows. This will prevent airborne contaminants getting in and help circulating the air the room.
