Factory cleaning and commercial cleaning: what's different?
The terms often appear together, but the risks and priorities can be quite different. This guide helps you ask useful questions and explain the job clearly. Every site and provider is different, so use it as a starting point rather than a substitute for a site assessment.

Typical commercial cleaning tasks
Offices, shops and shared spaces usually focus on cleaning frequency and the everyday experience of people using them.
What a factory site needs you to consider
Consider production equipment, dust, floor contamination, shutdown windows and site safety procedures.
Some factory work needs specialist assessment
Hazardous or specialist work needs appropriate capability and a separate assessment.
Choosing a service provider
Ask about experience with a similar environment and the work plan the contractor can offer.
