The Number One Cleaning, Paper, Safety, Equipment, Product Store in Niagara
The answer to this one is…. Drum roll please. A good cleaner. In more than just one way, too! The person doing the cleaning is every bit as important as the product we use to clean. My focus here is actually on the product. Surprise. Many floors require a cleaner that suits their special needs. […]
It kind of makes sense doesn’t it? Most rooms are square and most surfaces are flat where we use scrubbers. Then why not? I, like many industry veterans, started off without automatic scrubbers in most locations. Nowadays almost every building with 5000 or more square feet of floor have an automatic floor scrubber. Makes sense […]
Spills happen. Far more often than you might expect in fact. So what do you need to know for your workplace? A spill kit is helpful no matter where you work. If you do nothing but shuffle paper I guess you can be exempt; but obviously you wouldn’t have made it this far would you? […]
It sounds like I am talking about a geologist taking a piece of meteorite and putting a smooth edge on it with a beautiful gloss. I guess I am, but we are talking on a grander scale of course. How is stone polished you ask? Kind of like wood it is abraded until it is […]

Do you remember when you were in grade 7? Shop class taught you how to bring out the beauty of wood using sand paper, finish and stain. Love it or hate it shop class teaches us all the fundamentals to get the look that we desire. Almost the same process gives us results that can’t […]
Have you ever been to a big box store and been in awe of the sheen on their concrete floor? Its easy to assume that they have put some crazy topical coating on top of their concrete to put their best foot forward. But did you know that these floors have no coating? Did you […]
Sometimes change is good, sometimes it isn’t. In 2005 the SS5 came out, what is the SS5 you say? The predecessor to the SS500 of course! Nobles had made what I believe is one of the most solid pieces of equipment I have ever seen- a workhorse. Just the same as the Black and […]
