Welcome to the AB Forum

We are trying to find a floor cleaner for the hard wood (maple) in our 6 squash courts. The current product being used by our custodial staff is solvent based with a strong odour which is irritating to some of our facility users (though it cleans very well). We need something to remove the ground in dirt and shoe marks but is less aromatic. What are other facilities using to clean their squash court floors, in addition to regular dry mopping for the dust and grit? Thanks for your assistance.

We have worked with Hillyard Chemical Co. here in St. Joe for years. They are very accommodating and have great products (cleaners, soaps, mops-industrial cleaning products). They've been in business for 100 years, so pretty solid I would say. My contacts there are JR Roth or Jim Carolus. The headquarters is located at 302 N. 4th St. in St. Joseph, MO 64501. Phone is 800-365-1555 or 816-233-1321. Website: www.hillyard.com I just called to get 800 # & they said to ask for Tech Services to get a recommendation on the type of product you're wanting. They definitely have a product for you.

Hi Tim. We use Murphy's Oil Soap, a traditional non-toxic favorite. Works great and our sensitive breathers have no problem. good luck! Spanda
