The Importance of High-Quality Cleaning Products

For efficient and thorough cleaning, choosing the right cleaning product is crucial. Whether at home, in the hospitality industry, or professional cleaning companies – high-quality cleaning products not only ensure cleanliness but also protect surfaces, enhance hygiene, and extend the lifespan of materials. In our Hero Hygiene online shop, we offer a wide range of cleaning and care products for various applications.

Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products

Eco-friendly cleaning solutions are not only beneficial for the environment but also for personal health. Our probiotic cleaning products harness the power of beneficial bacteria to remove contaminants while promoting a healthy microflora. These cleaners work sustainably, neutralize unpleasant odors, and are fully biodegradable. While conventional cleaning products often contain harmful chemicals, probiotic products actively help protect our waterways. Our range includes probiotic interior cleaners, sanitary cleaners, floor cleaners, and all-purpose cleaners, providing a sustainable alternative to traditional cleaning agents.

Types of Cleaning Products and Their Applications

Not every cleaning product is suitable for every surface or type of dirt. Choosing the right product is key to achieving optimal cleaning results.

Sanitary Cleaners: In washrooms and toilets, lime deposits, rust, and soap residues often accumulate. Acidic sanitary cleaners effectively remove these and provide a fresh fragrance for a pleasant atmosphere.
All-Purpose Cleaners: The all-rounder for many surfaces. All-purpose cleaners are suitable for floors, furniture, and work surfaces but are not recommended for delicate materials such as untreated wood.
Kitchen Cleaners: Specially developed for food areas, kitchen cleaners effortlessly remove grease and oil residues. They are ideal for households, large kitchens, and food processing businesses.
Power Cleaners: For stubborn dirt such as dried grease, soot, or industrial grime, power cleaners offer the best solution. These cleaners are highly effective and commonly used in workshops and production facilities.

Care Products vs. Cleaning Products: What’s the Difference?

Cleaning products remove dirt and contaminants, whereas care products serve to protect surfaces and maintain their shine. Proper care is particularly important for sensitive materials such as wood or natural stone. For parquet floors, for example, a specialized wood floor care cleaner should be used to preserve the natural protective layer of the wood. Those who want to maintain high-quality floors and furniture in the long run should regularly use the appropriate care products.

Tips for the Proper Use of Cleaning Products

To achieve optimal cleaning results without damaging surfaces, some basic rules should be followed.

• Pay attention to dosage: More cleaning product does not automatically lead to better results. Excessive amounts can leave residues or damage materials.
• Allow time for the product to work: For stubborn dirt, it is beneficial to let the product sit for a few minutes before wiping.
• Check compatibility: Not every cleaning product is suitable for every surface. For delicate materials like natural stone or wood, a test should be conducted in an inconspicuous area.
• Follow safety precautions: Wear gloves, ventilate rooms well, and keep cleaning products out of children’s reach.

Maintenance Cleaning: Regular Cleaning for Long-Term Hygiene

Consistent maintenance cleaning not only ensures a well-kept appearance but also prevents the spread of germs and bacteria.

• Daily cleaning: Kitchens, sanitary areas, and frequently touched surfaces such as door handles or worktops should be cleaned daily.
• Weekly cleaning: Floors, furniture, and windowsills benefit from a thorough cleaning once a week.
• Monthly deep cleaning: Carpets, upholstered furniture, and hard-to-reach areas should be intensively cleaned on a regular basis.

The appropriate cleaning routine depends on the setting. While weekly cleaning is often sufficient in households, more intensive measures are necessary in commercial settings.

Effective Cleaning Methods for Different Surfaces

Different materials require different cleaning methods and products.

• Glass & Windows: High-quality glass cleaners with low surfactant content prevent streaks and ensure a streak-free shine.
• Wood: Specialized wood floor cleaners protect the material from drying out and preserve its natural appearance.
• Tiles & Sanitary Areas: Acidic cleaners remove lime deposits, while chlorine-based products have strong disinfecting properties.
• Plastic & Metal: Special cleaners for these materials help maintain surface structure and prevent discoloration.

Choosing the right cleaning product for each surface prevents damage and ensures the best results.

What to Consider When Buying Cleaning Products

Several factors play a role when purchasing a cleaning product.

• Ingredients: Eco-friendly products and probiotic cleaners provide a sustainable alternative to aggressive chemicals.
• Application area: Not every cleaning product is suitable for every surface. The wrong choice can cause damage.
• Efficiency: Highly concentrated cleaners are often more economical in use and, therefore, more cost-effective.
• Scent: In food areas, fragrance-free products are advisable, while sanitary cleaners often contain fresh fragrance agents.
• Packaging: Eco-friendly refill systems reduce plastic waste and offer a sustainable solution. Hero Hygiene provides free dosing systems, including installation and staff training. Contact us for more information on dosing solutions.

Our cleaning agents

Probiotic detergents - cleaning with benign bacteria

Cleaning with bacteria may sound a bit abstract at first, but it is an ingenious product of modern research. With the help of benign, biological bacteria, impurities, dirt and other harmful substances are removed and at the same time a healthy and natural microflora is created. Unpleasant odors are immediately eliminated, as they are usually caused by undesirable microorganisms. Probiotic cleaners are 100% natural and actively help clean our waters instead of polluting them. Our probiotic range includes indoor cleaners, sanitary cleaners, floor cleaners and all-purpose cleaners.

Clean floors with the right floor cleaner

Floor cleaning is an important aspect of comprehensive hygiene, as they are often heavily contaminated by dirt and grime. Depending on the floor covering and cleaning method, different cleaning agents or even care products should be used. Especially for oiled, waxed and sealed wood flooring (parquet), care should be taken to buy a special wood floor cleaner. In addition, there are special cleaners for spray and extraction cleaning machines the remaining floor cleaners are basically suitable for all cleaning machines and cleaning methods.

Glass and window cleaners for a clear view

When cleaning windows and glass in general, the most important thing is that the clear surface is not smeared after cleaning. High-quality glass cleaners have a small amount of surfactants, which allows the surfaces to dry quickly and without streaks. In addition to glass surfaces and windows, these agents can also be used to effectively and cleanly clean other shiny, water-resistant surfaces such as glossy painted kitchen surfaces.

Acidic sanitary cleaners for stubborn soiling

Especially in washrooms and toilets, stubborn dirt such as lime, rust and grease residues can quickly form. To remove these mineral contaminations, acidic sanitary cleaners should be used. These cleaners contain certain acids and surfactants that are particularly effective against mineral contamination. Sanitary cleaners are usually also equipped with pleasant fragrances, thus ensuring a good indoor climate, especially in washrooms and toilets.

Universal cleaner - the all-rounder

In our online store you can of course also find the all-rounder among the household utensils, the universal cleaner. As the name suggests, this cleaner can be used for most surfaces. Whether you need to clean the floor or want to clean another surface, the universal cleaner can be used for almost everything. However, the universal cleaner is not suitable for surfaces made of wood because of the surfactants it contains.

Kitchen cleaner

When handling food, residues of food, oil and grease can quickly form. To remove these optimally, we recommend the kitchen cleaners specially suited for this purpose. These are the best product for effective cleaning not only in kitchens, but also in other food processing facilities such as large kitchens, bakeries or butcher shops. The kitchen cleaners are mostly fragrance free and remove oil and grease effortlessly.

Industry in particular places special demands on a cleaning agent, which is why special agents have been developed for it. The workshop cleaner has excellent grease dissolving power for lubricant, grease and oil residues. Even stubborn dirt build-up on workbenches, tools, components, engines and much more can be removed quickly and easily with this industrial cleaner.

Environmentally friendly cleaning agents

When it comes to cleaning agents, there are also ecological alternatives to the classic cleaning products. For sustainable maintenance cleaning, we particularly recommend the CO2-neutral "Ecolution" articles from the manufacturer Dr. Schnell. The powdered cleaning agents are pre-portioned in water-soluble bags, which makes them easier to use. The well-known cleaning agents Forol and Milizid can be obtained in this variant, which makes them equipped for most cleaning tasks. One bag contains powder sufficient for 20 applications of the 0.5 liter spray bottle, and the bag itself can be completely composted after use. This can save a large amount of packaging waste. Ecolution products are good for the planet - but also good for you.
