Eco-friendly and economical
Hospitality establishments generate huge
quantities of laundry at a huge cost. This
unique product may reduce your laundry
detergent costs by at least 80%!
How it works
Eight different ceramics work synergistically
to emit powerful remote infrared rays that
break the hydrogen molecules in water to
increase molecular movement. It also
decreases the superficial pressure of water,
giving the water a higher penetration
capacity and improving its washing abilities.
Housekeeping the natural way
Using natural
cleaners is a
great way to
promote a healthy
environment and
healthy living.
Not only this, but chemical
cleaners can be very expensive,
while many of the natural
cleaners discussed below
are reasonably priced, and
will save you money in the
long run.
Using natural substances to
clean your establishment will
go a long way to making you
feel like you are contributing
to a positive future. Harsh
chemical cleaners can deplete the ozone
and damage the environment when we
dump them down the drain or on the ground.
Tried and trusted Vinegar
Using vinegar for
more than making
your favourite slap
chips
Few people realise the multiple
uses of vinegar in the
home. Firstly, it is an all-natural
product, making it a far
wiser choice as an alternative
to harsh and strong-smelling
chemicals. Secondly, vinegar
can be used in a huge variety
of ways, from flavouring
a plate of chips to cleaning
your shoes. The following
tips can be used in your
home, your accommodation
establishment and even outdoors.
Who’s doing the washing?
The laundry
department in any
accommodation
establishment, be
it small or large, is
an extremely
important link
between the
guests and the
general smooth
running of
housekeeping.
The obvious function of the
laundry department is to
process soiled linen of all
kinds, including all bed linen,
bathroom linen, dining linen,
staff uniforms and lastly
guests’ clothing items. The
laundry department will launder,
dry clean, tumble dry,
press or iron the linen, and
supply housekeeping with
fresh supplies to ensure that
high standards can be maintained.
Fabulous first impressions
Have you ever
heard someone
say that “a firstimpression is
a lasting
impression”?
Unlike many other clichés
this one is actually true. The
first impression of your
establishment will set the
tone for how your guests
view their entire experience.
Cleanliness is next to godliness
We all know that even the most
beautiful setting, the most attentive
service and the most delicious food
cannot make up for bad housekeeping.
No matter what rate the
guest is paying, he expects (and
has a right to) a clean room.
We also know that housekeeping is one of
the most challenging departments to run
effectively and cost efficiently. A leading hotel
group in South Africa recognized that for
their management to truly understand the
specific challenges facing their housekeeping
staff they had to step into the shoes of
those cleaners, they had to get “down and
dirty”.
