As essential and medieval as they may sound, but brooms and dustpans are an absolute necessity and part and parcel of our daily lives. And that too specifically for businesses who are looking to ensure cleanliness and hygienic practices at their workplaces at all times. Especially food industry business like restaurants, hotels, eateries, cafes and more have to understand the right kind of cleaning equipment for them and then determine which one is the right choice for the.
Although, businesses and households do not spend a lot of time considering this thought however, it becomes clear from a closer look that there are various broom varieties made to manage various messes. You can also save yourself the frustration of sweeping up just to leave half the mess on the floor by choosing the correct broom.
This is your everyday go-to broom used around the house for virtually all dry spills and messy floors.
The corn broom or straw broom is the original, old-fashioned broom. It’s coarse, hard bristles were fine for the rough, unsmooth floors of caves and medieval peasant cottages, but poorly suited for today’s indoor sweeping needs. However it remains popular as an outdoor broom as its coarse bristles are effective for sweeping patios, decks, outdoor walkways, etc.
The push broom features a large head which makes it ideal for large areas. Areas like garage floors as well as any large surface can be cleaned up a lot more quickly because of its large head.
The technology behind the angle of the bristle surface is to enable the broom to reach into corners and those ‘hard to get to’ nooks and crannies. An angle broom is ideal for kitchens
Since the mid-90s, the advent of the rubber broom has revolutionized sweeping. Today’s brooms can handle a myriad of messes.
Nothing is more frustrating than having to keep moving back the dustpan as you continue trying to sweep the mess into it. The steeper the angle of the rubber tip edge, the more it resists accepting the dirt. Also, the finer to which the rubber tip edge is tapered, will contribute to the ease of dirt entry into the dustpan. Finally the depth of the ridge, or the ‘drop-off’ just past the rubber tip edge, will facilitate keeping the mess inside the dust pan without it falling back out if you lift the dustpan too steeply
