DUST CONTROL
Dirty Facts
- 70% to 80% of the dust and dirt in public buildings is tracked in from the outside.
- 30% of all dirt entering a building is removed in the first three feet of entrance matting, while 85% is removed in the first 15 feet.
- Only 10% of the dirt in an entrance mat is removed by vacuuming.
- 91% of shoppers pick a store by the finish on the floor, and without entrance matting it takes only 1500 people to remove 42% of the floor finish.
- Most in-store injuries occur at the entrance due to slip and falls on wet surfaces.
- 90% of building maintenance cost is labor.
- The estimated cost of removing a single pound of dirt from a building can exceed $500.
Work spaces can become cleaner, healthier environments if a systematic program of dust control is implemented that not only removes dirt from the work spaces, but reduces the amount coming into the work space. A comprehensive Dust Control Program involves four elements 1) strategically placed entrance mats that are cleaned on a regular basis; 2) regular cleaning of hard floors with dust mops; 3) regular use of wet mops to remove tracked in dirt not removed by dust mops; 4) regular dusting of ledges as well as vacuuming of permanent carpeting. By using A Superioir Linen Service to supply entrance mats, dust mops, and wet mops, your maintenance budget can be reduced.
A Dust Control Program can increase your profits by:
- reducing employee off time by providing a cleaner healthier environment
- redicing costly slip and fall lawsuits by providing a safer entrance
- reducing labor costs by providing Dust Control tools that result in the more efficient use of manpower
- increasing sales by providing a cleaner more attractive environment for your clients
- increasing the life of carpeting and floors by both protecting them and effectively cleaning them
MATSWhy shouldn't I just buy my own mats and clean them?
A Superior Linen Service supplies a variety of entrance mats that are both engineered to wear and are thorougly cleaned on
a regular basis. Many people feel that they can buy entrance mats and clean them themselves. However, vacuuming or hosing down a
mat does not remove all the dirt, and thereby the mat becomes just like an overflowing dustpan. Even washing them in a home washer
does not provide the necessary agitation to remove all the dirt. Furthermore, your employees are wasting time and money cleaning
mats when they don't have the proper equipment or training to do the job. Let the professionals at A Superior Linen Service supply
you with mats so your employees can spend their time more efficiently. We would be more than happy to survey your location at no
charge to determine your needs.
Can I have a slogan or logo on the mat?
The right mat can enhance your working environment, show off your company logo, advertise a product, or send any message you wish to your employees or customers. We have the ability to create a mat with permanent color designs, logos, or messages.
- Send a safety message to employees- Safety First
- Display your company logo
- Identify an area or give directions
- Advertise a product
What size and color mats do you have?
A Superior Linen Service can accommodate almost any customer as far as size and color of mat. Our standard sizes are: 2 feet by 3 feet,
3'x5', 4'x6', 4'x8', 3'x10', but we can have mats cut to any size. Most customers like to match the entrance mats to their decor, so we
supply a variety of colors. Our sales staff will sit down with you and pick the color and size that is just right for you.
What if I have special needs?
There are a variety of mats that we can supply from special scraper mats to anti-fatigue mats. There are germ stopper mats that
have an anti-microbial system bonded to each carpet fiber or even anti-static mats for around computers. There is an ever growing awareness
of health hazards posed to both customers and employees by the workplace. From concerns about Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) to musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs), governmental agencies from OSHA to the local health department are putting forth more and more regulations. Whatever the
problem or need, we can be your partner to find the solution, so you can get back to the business of running your business.
Scraper Mat
The nitrile rubber scraper mat removes dirt while providing a slip-resistant surface that reduces workers' fatigue in both legs and feet. Ideal for kitchens, inclines, or other slippery areas.
Anti-fatigue Mat
Made of a tough, resilient rubber compound, this mat improves worker comfort and increases productivity. Holes allow moisture and debris to fall through the mat, away from foot traffic.
- 1/2" thickness has beveled edge on all 4 sides.
- Available in grease-resistant and grease-proof rubber.
- Ideal for kitchen or commercial use.

Dust Mops
A Superior Linen Service provides a rugged dust mop in 24", 36", and 48" sizes with a hardwood handle, and chrome plated mop frame that easily
slides into the dust mop. A clean serviceable mop week after week means you don't have to worry about cleaning the mop or replacing it after
it's worn out. A fresh mop is more effective at picking up dirt and dust.
Wet Mops
Our tangle free wet mops give the user better floor coverage to complete the job both quickly and thoroughly. Instead of dealing with a worn out
mop that worked well when you first bought it, A Superior Linen provides you a fresh, clean, and ready to go mop each week.
