Utilising Battery Power to Maintain Cleanliness

Since the pandemic began, cleanliness has consistently been at the forefront for those working in the hospitality industry and for guests, who increasingly want to see cleaning in action. With trip hazards and risks involved, could battery power be the answer?

Covid-19 continues to be top of mind for those in the hospitality sector as customer safety continues to dominate. Customer’s expectations of cleanliness have been heightened throughout the pandemic and it is important to cater for these growing demands to keep guests coming back time and again.

Whilst businesses have consistently sought to maintain high levels of cleanliness, there is an increased demand from guests to see cleaning in action. Traditional machines would lead to wires strewn across the floor creating unwanted trip hazards that would render this unsuitable for popular thoroughfares. However, technological developments have given rise to a new range of battery-powered cleaning solutions that allow for cleaning at all times of the day due to their cordless design which eliminates trip hazards created by loose wires.

Exceptional Cleaning Quality

Customers expect quality when they enter hospitality venues, right from the moment they step in through the main door to where they will eat or sleep. Maintaining entrances and lobbies should be at the top of the agenda for making customers feel like they have walked on the “red carpet” each time they enter your premises.

Handheld battery powered devices such as the Vacuum Cleaner BVL 5/1 Bp Pack allow users to easily remove loose dirt to maintain the premises. Easily lifting dirt from carpeted flooring, the backpack vacuum cleaner can be easily used in a matter of seconds to whisk away dirt and maintain the luxury aesthetic.

With its super-lightweight design, the BVL 5/1 Bp is worn by the user on their back enabling them to easily clean surfaces without the need for cables to be strewn across the area. Added attachments allow for it to be used on a multitude of surfaces from entrance mats to curtains to keep the lobby area pristine for guests.

Perfecting Cleaning Quietness

Those staying in hotel rooms or frequenting restaurants expect a high-level of cleanliness, however they do not want to be disturbed by loud cleaning appliances. Using battery powered machines can help to reduce noise levels without compromising on performance.

Vacuum cleaners such as the T 9/1 Bp have a robust design and emit low-noise levels. The reduced noise output enables cleaners to use them in areas that are open to the public. This is perfect for cleaning corridors and passageways between rooms when dirt may have built up during hours when customers may be sleeping.

Effective Cleaning Turnaround

It is imperative within the hospitality sector to enable a quick turnaround that does not risk impacting the effectiveness of the clean. Moving to battery powered solutions can greatly increase time saved whilst cleaning as there is no longer the need to unwind and rewind cables to plug machines in. Instead, cleaning machines can be powered at the touch of a button, allowing users to easily get started on the task at hand.

Opting to move to battery power can save up to 20% work time compared with corded models, offering more time for cleaners to spend making the final touches to the rooms to help deliver that added luxury.

Hygienic Cleaning Mastered

Hard flooring, such as in bathrooms and open spaces, need to be cleaned effectively using a scrubber drier to mop up unwanted dirt and spills. Traditional manual floor cleaning with a mop and bucket can put areas of flooring out of action for long periods of time – not to mention the added hazard risk of wet flooring.

To help overcome this, cleaners can utilise the BR 30/1 C Bp Pack cordless scrubber drier from Kärcher. This handheld battery-operated scrubber drier is ideal for choice cleaning of hard flooring and tiles. Its microfibre roller technology achieves up to 20 % better cleaning results than manual floor cleaning and up to 60% quicker drying times, preventing the need to close off large areas for long periods of time.

Summary

Making the move to battery power is about more than pursuing a more sustainable outlook for your hospitality venue. Battery powered machines offer unique advantages that help to speed up cleaning times and maintain effective cleanliness throughout.
