So what do we recycle...?! 🀷‍♀️🀷‍♀️

Interestingly, it is discovered that (and I'd like to re-iterate here) recycling isn't just a modern day phenomenon- with significance spreading globally like wildfire but a historical phenomenon. For this paradoxical concept to be properly practiced, it is important to think through one of the important aspects of the recycling process: the careful understanding of what can be recycled and what may not be considered recyclable. Although we have as part of the recyclable material family the biodegradable food and garden wastes which are used as compost, majority of all recyclable materials are of a non-biodegradable nature. Recyclable materials are said to range from many kinds of glass, paper, cardboard, metal, plastic, tires, textiles, batteries, and electronics. Through many budding city-wide/sub-urban/residential property initiatives these aforementioned recyclables are picked from source, sorted through (in some cases) then cleaned for simply reusing or for reprocessing into new materials for manufacturing new products into fresh supplies of same material used plastic bottles into new plastic bottles or used metal cans into new metal cans for example) or utilising just the constituent material from complex products. So, it suffices to say that gathering of recyclable waste isn't for a select urban/city occupying few but for all of us living within this post-industrialized 🌎 globe- village, city and the likes. 😊Note: This writeup is follow up from the introductory writeup- https://cleaningnmore.blogspot.com/2022/02/beyond-cleaning-to-next-best-thing.html Please feel free to share your comments (😊you might need to go through your gmail account...

Sweep. Dust. Mop [S. D. M]

In cleaning there are many fundamentals that form our operations and enable efficiencies across board and effective productivity.Even in this Artificial intelligence era, those fundamentals can't be disregarded. Looking closely at fundamentals, we find that there are some generic and some tweaked to fit the innovativeness of the cleaning operator concerned. As a company, we have embraced the fundamentals of sweep, dust and mop as one of those that we use daily. Ofcourse we know that it may not be the case 0.09% of times within our operations yet it is more the case than not... Especially as we operate predominantly, for now, within the Tropics, when we get to a cleaning site, our cleaning operatives are encouraged to engage-always bearing in mind one of our essential fundamentals to sweep then dust then mop [99.99% of the times]. Ofcourse, we keep seeking ways to grow and improve upon our operations and so are to tweak fundamentals... As our Chief P. says, "where we are isn...

Series 2 - Historical exploration of our main cleaning materials

The mop is another very essential cleaning tool that is needed significantly to capture residual dust on floor surfaces after a round of sweeping and an initial dust trapping/capturing with the dust rag or napkin or duster(different terms , meaning same thing). The mop is said to be categorised into two types- wet mop and dry mop. The wet mop is known to require the involvement of a solvent (liquid) solution - consisting of πŸ’§ water and a detergent or other cleaning reagent for effective cleaning and dust absorption. Through the process of thorough rinsing or washing if very soiled and proper drying, one is able to maintain the wet mop. The wet mop head is made of mostly cloth materials or sponge material and its body frame consists of the stick handle- wooden or metallic in nature. On the other hand, the dry mop- characterized by the flat head of strings connected by a swivel (which enables a more flexible motion and reach to areas with limited access than the wet mop) It ...

It is all in the hands and eyes...

It is all in the hands and eyes! As always the very foundation of a thing is important in ensuring growth  with very strong rootedness thus ensuring far-reaching outcomes.  As a company that values detail we believe that cleaning must be executed with the mindfulness that the hands and eyes have a most significant role to play in effecting detail. We always say that what we do is important but how we do what we do is even more important.  Therefore, with  the value of detail underscoring our cleaning practices, the mindful and skillful use of ones hands guided by the eyes will yield a most satisfactory cleaning experience.This is not to say that any disability found in the hands or eyes means one would not clean effectively. No! This age of Artificial Intelligence begs to defer; yet through the conscious use of our eyes and hands, we will yield better cleaning manually or mechanically.
