Maintaining a hygienic restroom takes more than just removing stains; the real threat comes from the bacteria you cannot see. Thorough urinal cleaning ensures these unseen, dangerous odours do not linger.
Health Risks
Unpleasant scents are not just off-putting; they can indicate a growth of bacteria and mould that can be harmful to breathe in. More often than not, these scents are caused by a build-up of skin, soap and uric acid that become dangerous over time. In extreme cases, odours can suggest the presence of hydrogen sulphide gas, which can be toxic to the body. Targeting this unsafe residue and ‘unseen’ dirt is an essential part of commercial washroom cleaning. Bioclean does not just scrape the surface; its advanced enzyme treatment allows for a deep and thorough removal of these scents that seem to just ‘hang around.’
Our Bioscreens for urinals are engineered with specialised bacterial properties that attack the stubborn odour-causing grime. This biological urinal cleaner, an alternative to the less appealing ‘urinal cakes,’ will ensure you are always keeping your pipes pristine. Our BioCaps act as urinal blocks, helping to eradicate the root of the cause whilst emitting a refreshing citrus fragrance.
Maintaining a Sanitary Standard
Aside from immediate health risks, unpleasant odours rarely go unnoticed by customers. That nasty stench coming from the restroom can reflect on a business itself, painting a clear picture of their values and attentiveness. From shopping centres to restaurants, a hygienic experience and effective deodorisation will directly boost a business’s reputation.
Employees benefit from well-maintained sanitary standards, too, with good hygiene increasing overall morale. Staff members need to feel as though a company values their well-being, and a sanitary workplace is a great place to start. The fresh feeling of a clean bathroom works wonders, setting the tone of a diligent and meticulous environment.
Maintaining these conditions for employees also carries legal weight. According to WorkSafe Western Australia’s Code of Practice, a workplace must provide employees with access to clean toilets at all times. It is a business’s duty of care to make sure these conditions are consistently upheld, with odours being one of the first indications of poor sanitary practices.
Preventing Damage
If ignored, the persistence of odours and moisture can degrade and damage bathroom fixtures, becoming far more costly than the surface-level cleaning itself. This extends beyond just stubborn stains; an uncleaned toilet can lead to long-term corrosion and structural damage. By using BioCaps, businesses can save big on regular washroom maintenance. Harnessing friendly bacteria, BioCaps remove the fats, uric scale and solids that can easily build up and damage pipe systems.
Avoiding Harmful Chemicals
Whilst removing unpleasant odours is important, consistent use of chemicals can do more harm than good. Workers are put at risk by the strong scent of ammonia and leftover, unremoved residue from bleach. Essentially, you are replacing one harmful odour with another. There are even further hazards associated with incorrect storing, labelling and overuse of these chemicals. Bioclean targets all surfaces without the need for dangerous substances. Businesses can protect the health of staff and clients by using a natural, effective substitute for urinal cleaning.
Currently, commercial washroom cleaning in companies can account for up to 50% of water use. The safe and specialised bacteria in our Washroom Biological Cleaner can help to facilitate water savings. This works to remove odours whilst cultivating a sustainable environment and increasing savings, whilst removing unseen dirt.
