While ensuring patient and resident care and satisfaction is naturally the top priority for healthcare providers, maintaining a clean, sterilised facility is not far behind on the priority list. Doctors, nurses, and aged care specialists simply cannot deliver the best possible healthcare if they are practicing in a room that has not been optimally cleaned or if a resident’s room gets contaminated.
At Rubbermaid Commercial, we specialise in providing hospital-grade cleaning supplies and solutions for hospitals, healthcare facilities, and homes across Australia. We recognise the crucial role of expert healthcare facilities that use top-notch hospital cleaning products. Our industry-leading healthcare cleaning solutions are designed for efficient disinfection, ensuring a safer, cleaner, and more comfortable environment for patients and residents.
The right healthcare cleaning supplies and products are crucial for cleaning facilities and maintaining rigorous infection control. An effective healthcare cleaning solution also bolsters the facility’s image and perception, which further increases patient satisfaction. Consider this sample of different products for different hospital areas, health clinics, and aged care facilities available from Rubbermaid Commercial Products®
Rubbermaid HYGEN™ disposable microfibre cloths and mops utilise built-in scrubber technology along with a 99.9 per cent microbe removal claim. This makes HYGEN™ microfibre system the ideal solution for streak-free and deep-cleaning environmental hygiene. The microfibre cloths are compatible with quat and both the mops and cloths are safe to use with bleach.
Healthcare cleaners can use HYGEN™ microfibre cloths and mops for these recommended applications:
A regular mop and bucket are insufficient for effectively cleaning the floors of a healthcare or aged care facility.
That is why Rubbermaid designed the executive HYGEN™ Microfibre Charging Mop Bucket in conjunction with Rubbermaid HYGEN™ Microfibre Damp Mops and Quick-Connect tools. These provide healthcare cleaners with a “no touch” system that is safe for use in MRI rooms. The charging bucket’s design prevents oversaturation of microfibre mops and reduces cross-transmission and contamination when swapping mops for different rooms.
The bucket also features a built-in measuring guide for cleaning and disinfecting solution that, when effectively used, allows for cost-effective supply management and more efficient cleaning of floors.

For healthcare facilities to get a truly deep clean, they need the right cleaning chemicals and agents that effectively counteract infection-causing pathogens and bacteria. This includes the cleaning of equipment and cleaning of other surfaces. However, overexposure to these harsh chemicals and agents can make general commercial cleaning equipment deteriorate over time.
The Rubbermaid HYGEN™ Flexi-Frame is constructed with proprietary material capable of withstanding bleach and peroxide degradation while still removing 99.9% of microorganisms.
Rubbermaid’s PVC-Coated mesh headband mops resists chemicals while many of Rubbermaid’s cleaning carts have chemical and water resistant surfaces.
Staff should always check with a manager before using any chemicals or agents in conjunction with a specific piece of cleaning equipment. Sometimes chemical-free options are more appropriate. The damp mopping microfibre pads of Rubbermaid’s PULSE Mop Kit are a lightweight cleaning solution that staff can use with or without chemicals. Plus, these pads can be used hundreds of times with regular washing.
