eLev8® Process Pays Dividends
By utilizing the eLev8 process, Ray Quinn with Carpenter Paper was able to provide a road map that lead to significant cost savings for one of his clients, a sports arena in Omaha, Nebraska.
“It was more than just a cost savings for the client,” says Quinn. “We were able to recommend real solutions … solutions based on the client’s needs. The client was very impressed with this as well.”
However, the savings and solutions were just part of the “win-win” in this situation. As a result of using the eLev8 process, Quinn has been able to secure a major towel and tissue opportunity, which may pay dividends for years to come.

At SUNY…The Kaivac Kleans It
When custodial workers at the State University of New York at Geneseo went to work on August 15, 2012, custodians were dispatched to a water flood in a classroom laboratory at the schools’ Integrated Science Center.
“The first tool selected to remove the water as well as clean and disinfect the floor was the Kaivac No-Touch Cleaning® systems stationed in that building,” says Laura Canfield, Facilities Services Supervisor at the University.

“The first tool selected to remove the water as well as clean and disinfect the floor was the Kaivac No-Touch Cleaning® systems stationed in that building,” says Laura Canfield, Facilities Services Supervisor at the University.
Like many users of Kaivac systems, Canfield says they have found a number of uses for their many Kaivac machines.
While restroom and locker room cleaning is the machines’ primary function, “we use the Kaivacs to clean bleachers, washing windows, clean floors, store rooms, building entries and stairwells, even cleaning walls.”
Adds Canfield, “The Kaivac machines make cleaning fast, effective, [and] efficient, and our workers love them. We’re always finding new ways use to them on the campus.”
On A Cleaning Mission for Health
Public restrooms, floors, sinks, and even water fountains are breading grounds for harmful biological hazards. It’s important to us that your employees and customers stay protected.
It is vital that these areas be cleaned completely and properly to remove harmful biological hazards and reduce the threats of disease. It isn’t good enough to simply clean for appearance. Cleaning for health must be the ultimate goal.
At Pristine Cleaning our primary weapon of choice is the Kaivac Cleaning System. With this amazing system contagious diseases such as Influenza, Ecoli, MRSA and many others can be taken care of immediately.
Pristine Cleaning was founded in 2007 by Josh Reffitt.

Kudos for a Sustainable Green Cleaning Program
Transferring from conventional to Green cleaning is not always easy. In fact, it can require a lot of time and training, selecting just the right products that are not only proven Green but high performing and effective.
The South Milwaukee School District recently took on this challenge. Fortunately, they had a distributor, Tartan Supply, which made the transition as easy and effortless as possible.
Love in the Janitorial Closet
University of Southern California Medical Center in East Los Angeles is one of the nation’s largest — and busiest — public hospitals. In one year, the hospital treats more than
With this many people, “all the concerns about controlling the spread of infection and cross contamination are multiplied a thousandfold here,” says Bill Walton, the center’s director of environmental services.
Because of this, Walton was looking for a more effective way to clean the hospital’s common-area restrooms, which must be serviced three to four times per eight-hour shift. He says traditional restroom cleaning methods involving rags, sprayers, mops, buckets, and brooms are slow. Worse yet, we now know that mops and rags spread germs and bacteria as they become soiled. In effect, they are contributing to the problem, not alleviating it.
