Nordic Update: Changes in the Floor Cleaning Industry

Interior designers are changing the cleaning process in Nordic countries. They have a major impact on floor cleaning because new floor materials (e.g. Bolon) are replacing more common ones such as wood and stone. Additionally, the trend in new buildings seems to be that there are many different types of materials used for flooring. As a result, a reduced amount of the overall area can be cleaned manually, which creates an opportunity for smaller floor care machines to become part of the daily cleaning process. This then poses the question whether cleaning trolleys will also change in order to support the transport of these new cleaning machines – to make the cleaning process more effective.

So, have you experienced how interior designers are changing the floor care process and thus the cleaning process as a whole?
