Escalator Cleaners: Ensuring Safety and Hygiene in High Footfall Areas
Escalators are one of the most common facilities used at airports, malls, metro stations, and commercial complexes. With thousands of people using them every day, escalators become hotspots for dirt, dust, grease, and germs. These can not only impact performance but create health and safety concerns. This is why Escalator Cleaners are necessary for modern Facility Management.
At Roots Multiclean, we offer cutting-edge
Escalator Cleaners to ensure reliable cleaning capabilities, durability, and improved safety in high foot traffic areas.
Why Do Escalators Need Specialized Cleaning?
Escalators differ significantly from typical floor surfaces because of the grooves in the escalator and staircase steps, which trap dust, grease, and debris. Thorough cleaning of these areas in the escalator is crucial to keeping the escalator safe and functional. High-volume or high-traffic sites, such as shopping malls, transit centers, airport terminals, and office complexes, utilize escalator cleaning systems for greater safety and enhanced cleaning.
