Benefits of a clean warehouse

Keeping your warehouse clean and boost your safety, productivity, and quality

The changes brought by COVID-19 means more business and less time for critical cleaning for many of our warehousing partners. With business booming because of soaring e-commerce demand, safety could easily be compromised at busy facilities, and possibly beyond. Advance by Nilfisk can help leverage new opportunities for maintaining your standard of clean in high-traffic work environments, support unprecedented levels of productivity and staff safety.

Need a partner? Southwest and Nilfisk can help define tailored, floor-to-ceiling solutions that are intuitive, easy to service, and built to achieve superior results – because we know what it takes to thrive in the new normal.

A clean warehouse promotes higher productivity and operational efficiency, while a dirty one can create slowdowns and delays.

Keeping your workers safe and healthy. Many workplace injuries (and workers’ compensation claims) are due to slip-and-fall accidents caused by slippery, unclean floors. Dust can also be inhaled, leading to allergies and lung disease. Having clean floors minimizes these risks and helps you achieve OSHA compliance.

Ensuring your product quality. In some facilities, such as food manufacturing warehouses or electronics distribution centers, dust and grime can impact your product quality. Regular cleaning helps you ensure the quality of the parts, equipment, merchandise, and products you’re storing and transporting.

Warehouses Thriving in times of change

The challenges for warehouses and distribution centers brought by the new normal are extensive, so floorcare and dust-management are only part of a larger whole. The understanding of what constitutes a high standard of clean, and the ability to maintain that standard, are both evolving and adapting for the sake of business, but more so for the sake of staff and customers. This period of evolution isn’t without its challenges, but opportunities for improved cleaning always lead to opportunities for increased success.
