Permanent antistatic vinyl flooring is the optimal choice for environments that require static control, such as electronics manufacturing plants, clean rooms, and data centers. To maintain the electrical conductivity and durability of the flooring, proper maintenance is essential. Here are some basic guidelines for maintaining antistatic vinyl flooring:
1. Regular Cleaning
Daily Sweeping and Mopping: Use a soft broom or vacuum to remove dust and debris. Mop the floor with a damp cloth or mop using a neutral cleaning solution that does not contain harsh chemicals to avoid damaging the floor surface.
Damp Mopping: Mop the floor with warm water mixed with a mild detergent. Avoid using too much water to avoid damaging the adhesive layer under the floor.
2. Use the Right Cleaning Solution
Choose the Right Solution: Use a neutral pH cleaning solution such as IBTECO SUPER CLEAN to avoid damaging the antistatic coating. Avoid harsh detergents or chemical solvents that may abrade the surface.
Avoid Waxing: Waxing is not necessary to polish anti-static vinyl floors as this may reduce the conductivity of the floor.
3. Regular Inspection: Periodically check the conductivity of the floor to ensure that the anti-static properties are maintained. If a problem is detected, it should be corrected immediately.
4. Treating Stubborn Stains: Use a specialized cleaning solution for difficult-to-remove stains such as grease. Wipe gently to avoid damaging the floor surface.
5. Protecting the Floor
Place Dust Mats: Use dust mats at entrances to minimize dust and sand on the floor, helping to prolong the life of the floor.
Avoid Heavy Impacts: Avoid dragging heavy objects across the surface to avoid scratching or damaging the conductive layer.
