What Is the Difference Between Commercial Kitchen Cleaning and Hood Cleaning?

Why Are Kitchen Cupboards, Counters and Cooking Areas Hard to Keep Grease-Free?
Grease tends to be one of the toughest cleaning challenges to overcome in an active commercial kitchen setting. While employees may clean the cupboards, counters and cooking areas on a daily basis, soon enough, the areas may start feeling sticky or even look dull. The reason for this is that grease does not limit itself to the vicinity of the stove area. Fumes and oils from cooking, food preparation, handling and even normal kitchen operations may lead to grease build-up in t

Restaurants, cafés, bakeries, workplace kitchens, and other food-service businesses deal with constant cooking, spills, moisture, and foot traffic, so buildup can develop faster than expected. Daily wiping and mopping are important, but they may not always be enough to keep every part of the kitche

Why Do Commercial Kitchen Floors Stay Greasy Even After Mopping?

Restaurant, café, bakery, and other business kitchens deal with cooking oils, food spills, crumbs, moisture, and constant foot traffic throughout the day. Grease can gradually settle on the floor and mix with dirt and food residue, leaving the surface looking dull, sticky, or greasy even shortly after it has been mopped. When this keeps happening, repeating the same cleaning routine m

Why Does Grease Keep Building Up in a Commercial Kitchen & How Can You Control It?
Grease buildup is one of the most common cleaning problems in busy commercial kitchens. Even when counters, cooking areas, and floors are cleaned regularly, grease can gradually return because cooking oils and vapour do not stay confined to the stove. They can settle on cupboards, counters, appliance exteriors, backsplashes, accessible hood surfaces, walls, and floors. Once grease begins collecting, it can create a sticky surface that attracts additional dust, dirt, and food

The VCT commercial flooring is created to withstand everyday activity on it, but even the toughest floor will require maintenance to retain its shine after some time. The scratches, scuffs, grime, dull traffic lanes, worn out finish, etc., will create a feeling that the office environment lacks maintenance and professionalism. At such times, it becomes difficult for property managers to understand whether the floor requires floor stripping service or buffing alone. Both VCT f
