Commercial maintenance must follow specific protocols based on the flooring type to prevent safety hazards like slip-and-falls. A successful program utilizes entry matting to trap debris, daily removal of loose dust to prevent abrasion, and scheduled wet-cleaning with the correct pH-neutral detergents. Periodic restorative cleaning maintains the floor's slip-resistance ratings and prevents the buildup of residue that can harbor bacteria or damage the material's aesthetic and structural qualities.
