The specialist maintenance company Floor Facility Services, based in Gouda, is an expert in cleaning and maintaining both soft and hard floors as well as furniture. The company was commissioned by a school in Waddinxveen to renovate a heavily soiled and damaged floor. The linoleum floor had suffered significant damage due to a combination of sand and hard glide feet under the furniture. 

Sustainable floor care

The floor was renovated by Floor Facility Services using the Floor Care System. This method eliminates the use of polymer, leading to a significant reduction in chemical usage. Another benefit of the Floor Care System is that it provides the floor with a harder protective layer, greatly extending its lifespan. This approach to floor renovation is not only environmentally friendly but also cost-effective in the long term.

The right protection

Sustainable floor maintenance also requires sustainable floor protection. In a classroom, furniture is frequently moved. Combine this with the sand brought indoors after outdoor play, and you have the perfect recipe for floor scratches. At this school, the sand acted like sandpaper under the hard glide feet, scraping across the floor. To prevent this in the future, Floor Facility Services equipped the furniture in all 20 classrooms with scratch-free Scratch no More furniture glides. 

By renovating the floor with the Floor Care System and fitting all furniture with Scratch no More furniture glides, Floor Facility Services ensures the school’s floor will last for many years to come.
