What Are Industrial Cleaning Services?

Industrial cleaning services are specialized cleaning solutions designed to maintain cleanliness and hygiene within industrial environments such as factories, warehouses, and manufacturing plants. There’s more to our work than scrubbing and mopping, though. Facilities like yours see a lot of activity. Disruptions can cause delays—and small messes can lead to hazards.

Our industrial cleaning services go beyond surface-level cleaning to ensure every part of your facility is safe and operational. For example, unchecked spills can create slippery surfaces, leading to accidents and injuries. Dust and debris buildup in machinery can also cause malfunctions. Our team uses advanced equipment and techniques to remove heavy-duty grime, grease, and contaminants from machinery, floors, walls, and other surfaces to better prevent these hazards.

Cluttered workspaces aren’t just eyesores—often, they’re also at risk of violating safety codes. By keeping walkways clear and ensuring that storage areas are properly maintained, you can prevent trips, falls, and other accidents.

Machinery Cleaning

We perform machinery cleaning as a key part of our industrial cleaning services, with a special focus on the commercial food industry. Proper and safe sanitation is of the utmost importance for our team, and we understand the critical role that clean machinery plays in maintaining food safety and quality.

Our company has developed specialized programs for deep cleaning machinery used in food production. These programs include dismantling equipment, soaking various parts in effective cleaning solutions, and using steam cleaning techniques to ensure that every component is thoroughly sanitized.

By adhering to these rigorous cleaning protocols, we keep your machinery food-safe from day to day.

Wall and Floor Cleaning

We offer wall and floor cleaning as part of our industrial cleaning services. Although walls and floors are not integral to your food plant's processing work, we do not overlook them. Maintaining cleanliness in these areas is crucial for overall hygiene and safety.

Clean walls and floors help prevent the accumulation of dust, grime, and contaminants that could potentially affect the quality of food products. Cleaner floors make for safer floors, too. A clean environment helps improve the safety of your facility by reducing slip hazards and creating a more pleasant and efficient workspace for your staff.

Industrial Carpet Cleaning

Maintaining cleanliness in food processing and handling facilities is crucial to ensuring food safety. Industrial carpet cleaning plays an essential role in this process. Carpets in these environments can easily trap bacteria, allergens, and debris, creating potential hazards that could compromise food quality.

When left unchecked, this contamination can lead to serious consequences, including product recalls, financial losses, and even damage to your brand's reputation. Regular, professional carpet cleaning removes these harmful contaminants, fostering a hygienic and safe workspace for your employees and the products they handle.

Meet with one of our carpet cleaning specialists to create a customized sanitization schedule that keeps your facility compliant with health and safety regulations.

Industrial Floor Care

Industrial floors in food processing and handling plants require specialized care that goes beyond what’s typical in other facilities. These floors endure unique challenges due to constant spills, production residue, and heavy foot traffic, which can lead to slippery surfaces and accidents and compromise hygiene. However, your flooring type—concrete, tile, or epoxy—determines the most effective cleaning methods.

For instance, concrete may need sealing treatments to prevent porosity, while epoxy floors benefit from regular polishing to maintain their non-slip properties. Regular floor care tailored to your facility’s needs plays a large part in ensuring your workspace remains safe and contaminant-free.

Customized floor cleaning schedules help address varying activity levels—some areas may need daily attention, and others may require less frequent deep cleanings.

Industrial Dust Removal

Dust enters food processing facilities through various channels, including your ventilation systems, human activity at your plant, and when you operate machinery. Airborne particles like dirt, fibers, and food residue can easily settle on exposed surfaces like walls, floors, and equipment. Without industrial dust removal, this buildup provides an ideal environment for bacteria and other harmful contaminants to thrive and can even pose a risk of fire or explosion.

Effective industrial dust removal is an essential part of your facility's deep-cleaning procedures. It targets and eliminates these hidden sources of contamination. Removing dust from all areas of your facility reduces the risk of bacterial growth and prevents cross-contamination between different processing zones.

Regular dust and debris removal helps your brand adhere to strict food safety regulations while maintaining consumer trust. With our proactive building cleaning approach, it’s easier than ever to uphold high standards of cleanliness and protect the integrity of your food production operations.

What’s the Process for High-Dusting in Food Processing Plants?

High-dusting refers to dust removal services in hard-to-reach places like your rafters, lighting fixtures, and ventilation ducts. We prioritize non-invasive methods to prevent contaminants from becoming airborne during our cleaning process. We tailor each high-dusting session to meet food safety regulations, ensuring even the most overlooked areas are spotless. Using specialized equipment like extendable dusters, vacuum systems with HEPA filters, and lift platforms, our highly trained team safely removes dust particles without disrupting your facility’s daily operations.

Breakroom and Bathroom Disinfection Services

Sanitary breakrooms and bathrooms are an unspoken part of a happy workforce. Are you taking the right steps to ensure your employees always have access to clean and safe spaces? These are hotspots for germs and bacteria, and they’re high-traffic spaces that require regular attention.

Count on our cleaners to use carefully selected disinfectants and thorough sanitization methods to eliminate harmful pathogens from countertops, door handles, appliances, faucets, fixtures, and other frequently touched surfaces.

How Often Should You Schedule Industrial Cleaners?

Our industrial cleaners have come to the aid of countless factories and workplaces. Some facilities need daily cleaning, while others need weekly or monthly cleaning services. The only way we can truly tell you how often you’re going to need our assistance is by speaking with you. The more we know, the better we can serve you.

That said, daily cleaning is usually recommended for high-traffic areas that accumulate a lot of dust. Deep cleaning isn’t needed as often, though. The work involved in a deep clean is labor-intensive and can impede some important industrial work. Generally, industrial facilities only require our deep cleaning services once a month or so. It’s also best scheduled outside of regular operating hours or during downtime.

Enhance Efficiency with Professional Industrial Cleaning

When your facility is cleaner, you can work harder and safer. We are experts at cleaning effectively and efficiently all of your surfaces, machinery, lounge and kitchen areas, and everything else you need to be cleaned. To provide our clients with the cleaning service they need most, we specialize in:

Anything you need to be cleaned in your industrial facility or factory, MWAC is the team to call.

What’s the Process for Removing Floor Stains and Odors?

The hard flooring in your food processing plant is exposed to many substances that can cause floor stains and odors. Unpleasant smells and eyesores detract from your brand’s ability to make a positive first impression and can lower morale and productivity. To effectively address these issues, we employ a multi-step process that targets visible stains and the underlying causes of odor.

First, our team thoroughly assesses your flooring type and the source of the stain to determine the most effective cleaning solutions. Next, we use specialized cleaning agents and equipment designed to break down food residue, oils, and other contaminants that contribute to staining and odor buildup. For particularly stubborn areas, we may incorporate steam cleaning or high-pressure washing to penetrate the surface and lift out trapped particles.

Once we’re satisfied your floors are clean, we apply deodorizing treatments that neutralize lingering odors rather than masking them. These treatments are food-safe and designed to maintain a fresh, clean environment.

What Are Signs That Your Industrial Facility Needs Ceiling Cleaning?

You may be wondering what to look for that will tell you when to schedule ceiling cleaning services for your industrial food handling facility.

Here’s what to keep an eye on:

• Noticeable dust and dirt accumulation
• Ceiling stains or discoloration
• Worsening air quality or allergy symptoms

• Signs of pests
• Machinery downtime or ventilation problems

If you’re noticing any of these warning signs, it’s a good time to schedule a ceiling cleaning to ensure your facility remains clean, safe, and fully operational.

How Do Industrial Cleaning Companies Prepare Your Personalized Estimate?

We want to continue to distinguish ourselves from other industrial cleaning companies. One way we do this is with our upfront estimates, which include all the details of your service request and no hidden fees.

Our process begins with a thorough consultation, where we assess your facility's specific needs, including the size of your space, the nature of the cleaning tasks required, and any industry-specific regulations our cleaners must follow. We take the time to understand your environment’s unique challenges—whether it's dealing with heavy-duty machinery, sensitive food processing areas, or high-traffic work zones—so we can create a tailored plan that addresses every aspect of your facility's janitorial care.

Once we’ve gathered all the necessary information, we’ll provide a precise, itemized estimate that breaks down each service we’ll perform, the frequency of your desired cleaning schedule, and each associated cost. We believe in full transparency, so you’ll never be surprised by unexpected fees or additional charges.
