Winter-Proof Your Facility: Essential Tips for Health & Safety

Written by Lesleigh Rickerson | October 23, 2024

As winter quickly approaches with the potential for harsh weather conditions across the nation, it’s crucial for facility maintenance teams to prepare in advance. Effective facility management is essential for creating a safe and healthy environment where people can work, learn, and maintain their daily routines.

By implementing proper floorcare and pathogen control strategies, your building and its occupants will be well-equipped for the winter season ahead.

Preventing Injuries with Effective Floorcare


With freezing temperatures and melting snow, trip and fall hazards can become a serious concern. One of the simplest yet most effective ways to mitigate these risks is to install an entryway matting system.

Invest in high-quality scraper mats for both the exterior and interior of your entrances. These mats should be long enough to allow individuals to take 3 to 4 steps on them before stepping onto the regular flooring. Additionally, consider using wiper mats, anti-fatigue mats, and safety mats to cover all your floorcare safety needs.
