Considerations For Industrial and Commercial Cleaning Brushes

Considerations For Industrial and Commercial Cleaning Brushes

Most sweeping and cleaning brushes are categorized under the Industrial/Commercial cleaning brushes segment. 

Larger sweeping and cleaning brushes are majorly built for heavy-duty cleaning. They can withstand rough environments and can be installed onto forklifts, floor cleaning machines, whereas smaller sweeping and cleaning brushes are more suitable for compact areas.

1. Industrial Sweeper Brush

Large, round sweeper brushes are excellent for general sweeping and scrubbing industrial floors. These brushes have stiff, sturdy bristles made of waterproof synthetic  material for wet or abrasive outdoor cleaning conditions. Industrial sweeper brushes are installed on floor-cleaning machines and road sweepers.

2. Forklift Sweeper Brush

Forklift sweeper brushes are mainly used to push and gather dust and dirt in the same direction—some agricultural industries use them to collect finer grains for processing later. You can quickly hook them to tractors and forklifts to sweep warehouse floors. These brushes are sturdy and can withstand cleaning over large and uneven terrain.

3. Industrial Broom

The heavy-duty industrial broom is a manual sweeping brush that is highly durable and good for sweeping large areas that are difficult to hand-scrub. These brooms can also clear debris from outdoor areas and factory floors.

4. Fan Broom

Fan Brooms are a variant of regular upright brooms. The bristles form a wide fan shape for sweeping rough or tiled surfaces. However, you can also use it for general sweeping and cleaning. Their slim, flexible bristles remove tiny pieces of trapped dirt and dust from grooves. Fan brooms come with flagged and unflagged bristles for different cleaning intensities.

5. Push Or Truck Broom

Push or Truck Brooms are similar as the handle can be inserted into the brush cap at an angle to withstand vigorous scrubbing with lesser strain. People commonly use push brooms for heavy-duty or rigorous manual cleaning of hard and rough floors in homes, factories, and offices. The truck brooms help scrub big vehicles such as trucks, lorries, etc. It is designed with an extended bristle height to increase flexibility and prevent scratches to the truck body.

6. Pacific Broom

At Yew Lee Pacific, we make Pacific Brooms in flagged or hard-crimped variants that are good for outdoor and indoor use. They also make the handle from solid and durable metals to withstand vigorous cleaning.

7. Eco Broom

The Eco Broom is a smaller, lighter sweeping and cleaning brush than the Pacific Broom. The Malaysia-based brush manufacturer produces hard, soft, soft flagging, and crimped eco broom bristles for indoor and outdoor cleaning. Eco brooms are ideal for sweeping and scrubbing patios, front yards, and gardens.

8. Big Broom

The Big Broom is a bigger upright broom with a broad surface area for large-scale cleaning. These brooms have stiff bristles or medium and soft flagged bristles with different colors. They are suitable for cleaning indoor and outdoor floor areas that are vast and expansive.

9. Cobweb Brush

Cobweb Brushes are used to remove dust and cobwebs from difficult-to-reach areas. They are often used to clean cobwebs from corners of walls but can also be used for cleaning lamps, windows, and other things. 

These brushes have soft and full bristles in a round shape for thorough and gentle cleaning. Some cobweb brushes have telescopic extendable handles, making cleaning corners on high ceilings easier. Cobweb brushes are available in different colors.

10. Iron Brush

Iron Brushes are shaped like an iron and have a good grip, and they help clean small or detailed areas. The company that makes these brushes uses three different materials for the bristles – copper, stainless steel, and nylon. Nylon bristles are suitable for cleaning small and detailed areas, while metal bristles can help remove rust or scale.

11. Handle Brush

Sweeping and cleaning Brush

Like the iron brush, a Handle Brush is a small, handheld brush for finely cleaning smaller areas. The nylon or steel bristles are attached to a wooden or plastic backing and handle. You can use these smaller handled brushes with a handheld dustpan for easier cleaning.

Types of Bristles

Bristle type affects the brush’s cleaning effectiveness and function. Therefore, it’s essential to understand the differences between the bristle types used in the manufacturer’s brushes. This section briefly explains the differences between common bristle types.

  • Flagged bristles
  • Unflagged/rigid bristles
  • Stiff bristles
  • Medium bristles
  • Soft bristles

1. Flagged Bristles

Flagged bristles have frayed monofilament ends, and each splintered bristle strand contains multiple smaller follicles. It provides a highly detailed brush fill ideal for finely sweeping powders, dust, dry areas, hairs, fur, and smooth floors.

2. Unflagged or Rigid Bristles

Conversely, unflagged or rigid bristles are straight and stiff, and they help sweep large pieces of debris. Each strand is solid and consistent without frayed ends, making the brush stronger and tougher. Brushes made with unflagged bristles are well-suited for wet condition cleaning or sweeping rough and uneven floors.

3. Stiff Bristles

Stiff bristles are short and thick, making them an excellent choice for stiff scrubbing. They are suitable for removing stubborn dirt, tile grouting, and descaling. 

4. Medium Bristles

Medium bristles are the most common bristle type in sweeping floor brushes. They can remove small, medium, and large debris and are good enough for general household cleaning.

5. Soft Bristles

Soft bristles are long and thin in shape, so they’re more suitable for moving fine or dry particles and powders. These bristles are ideal for light dusting or kitchen usage. 

Soft bristles have a split variant; the ends are similar to flagged bristles and can hold more water. You can choose this bristle type for washing floors and cleaning general wet surfaces.
