EspañolDust, debris and oil residue build up on industrial warehouse floors that mops can’t reach. When your company’s standard brush breaks down, you may need a replacement that better fits your cleaning application and floor surface.
Choose from tank brushes, hand scrubs and floor brooms. They’re available in HACCP-compliant colors to promote sanitary food handling practices.
Product Description
Hygienic brushes are critical to keeping industrial equipment clean, which reduces the risk of manufacturing errors and loss.
The process for the manufacture of the scrubbing brush begins by slipping a bundle of elongation nettings made of wire into a bundle. Next, the nettings are heated by immersing them in hot water. The heating causes the bristle foremost surfaces of the nettings to be deformed into a shape corresponding to that of the scrubbing brush.
The result is a scrubbing brush with which the number of fibers in a bundle cannot fall out even when it is scrubbed hard against a surface of an article from which stain is to be removed. This enables the scrubbing brush to be used effectively in fields that require less force, such as brushing off dust from clothes or wiping off stains slightly adhered to flatwares.
Bristle Material
Cleaning is a major part of the job in industrial warehouses. The right brush makes the process faster and easier and protects equipment from damage and saves floor chemical from being used unnecessarily.
Bristles are made from a wide range of materials and have many different shapes and densities depending on their use. For example, paint brushes have bristles that are shaped to create a specific style of painting. Stippling brushes have bristles that are very fine and hard to the touch, while oil painting brushes have thicker bristles.
For industrial applications, bristles are typically made from polypropylene or plastic, nylon or a variety of metals. Nylon is durable, flexible and chemical resistant. It resists acids, alkalis, gasoline, acetone and cleaning solvents. It has a high strength-to-weight ratio and good bend recovery. It is a popular choice for abrasion-resistant brushes. Crimped polypropylene resists acid, mildew and bacteria. Metal brushes are available in a range of stainless steel grades and in various diameters.
Bristle Stiffness
Brushes vary in stiffness to handle different cleaning applications. A soft bristle is great for sweeping but may not be effective at scrubbing a floor or stainless steel equipment. A hard bristle can cause scarring and scratches on a surface that leads to bacteria growth.
Industrial Scrub brushes are an essential tool in many industrial facilities to prevent bacteria and contaminants from spreading between areas. They can be used for scrubbing or scraping food particles and liquid residue from floors, walls, decks, and tanks. They are also used to clean food equipment and surfaces, as well as for washing, painting, or coating.
Stainless steel wire brushes are durable and resist corrosion in wet environments. These brushes are often used in meat processing facilities, canneries, mills, and breweries. These brushes are made from various sizes of wires twisted together to form the bristles.
Handle Material
Handles for brushes can be made from wood, metal, plastic, wire, or other materials that have the tensile strength and rigidity to hold bristles. The handle is usually shaped and formed before it's prepared to accept the bristles. For brushes with wooden handles, holes are drilled into the handle for the bristles to be inserted. Handles made of other materials are molded or twisted together before the bristles are added.
