Rubber floor cleaning
Are you looking for perfect cleaning results, a non-slip surface and the value retention of your investment? Then you need Sandmaster – with us it’s going to be something.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF RUBBER SURFACES
Rain, wind and other environmental stressors cause dirt particles and other foreign matter to compact into the open pore structure of the rubber surface. The result: the pores become clogged up with a subsequent formation of moss and algae. This in turn leads to a poor drainage effect, the surface becomes slippery and cracks can form resulting in an increased risk of injury for the athletes.
We clean Run-up tracks, Playgrounds, Running tracks, Outdoor swimming pools, Tennis courts and mini pitches
CLEANING MACHINE FOR LARGE SURFACES – LETS DO IT!
The plastic floors are cleaned by means of a rotary whirling process and up to 250 bar water pressure. The special feature of the process: The dirty water is directly sucked off during the work process and collected in a tank. Accesses from 2.00 m width and 2.50 m height can pass through this cleaning unit without any problems.
SLIGHTLY SMARTER FOR SMALLER AREAS
Even when things get tight, this is no problem for Sandmaster. Our specially developed and patented small cleaning machine is happy to prove its abilities. Problem-free cleaning of difficult to access areas, entry through narrow gates and narrow driveways are possible from 1.10 m width.
THE ADVANTAGES OF SANDMASTER
- Reduction of slipping risk
- Recognition of and report on damaged areas in the turf
- Extension of service life
- Removal of moss and algae
- Restoration of drainage
- Certified according to RAL-GZ 943
- Professional status reports and maintenance contracts possible
ADDITIONAL SERVICES FOR PLASTIC COVERINGS
Shoes with studs or spikes or the daily wear and tear caused by school sports are particularly damaging to plastic floors in schools and stadiums. To ensure that athletes can continue to play their sport without risk of injury, the flooring must be professionally repaired if necessary.
CUSTOMER OPINIONS
We have relied on Sandmaster for many years. The pitches are always top maintained, damaged areas are professionally repaired and communication is excellent! With a maintenance contract, we don’t have to worry about almost anything.
If I don’t have the perfect grip when at start, then jumping goes wrong. Sandmaster convinces with his cleaning, the floor will be almost as good as new!
THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL RUBBER FLOOR CLEANING
Why is it important to clean synthetic surfaces regularly?
Open-pored synthetic surfaces are designed to drain rainwater quickly whilst offering optimum performance characteristics. If the pores become blocked by dirt deposits, various problems can arise: reduced water permeability, the growth of algae and moss, an increased risk of slipping, loss of the original surface properties and premature wear of the surfacing.
Regular cleaning helps to maintain the functionality and service life of the surface in the long term.
Step 1: Analysis of the rubber flooring
Before cleaning begins, the area is inspected and the condition of the surface is assessed.
The following factors, amongst others, are taken into account:
- Degree of soiling
- Condition of the surface
- Presence of algae and moss
- Degree of blockage in the pore structure
- Visible damage or signs of wear
This analysis forms the basis for the subsequent cleaning.
Step 2: Deep cleaning with high-pressure rotary vortex technology
The next step is the actual intensive cleaning.
This involves a special rotating vortex process using water pressure of up to 250 bar. This technique enables deep cleaning of the open-pored structure and dislodges even stubborn deposits from the surface.
Among other things, the following are removed:
- Dust
- Dirt particles
- Pollen
- Algae
- Moss
- Organic deposits
This reopens the pores of the synthetic surface and thoroughly cleans the surface structure.
Step 3: Immediate extraction of the dirty water
During cleaning, the resulting dirty water is collected immediately.
The combination of high-pressure cleaning and suction prevents loosened dirt particles from re-entering the surface. At the same time, the cleaned area remains free of residue.
The immediate collection of dirty water ensures:
- High cleaning efficiency
- Clean surfaces
- Permanent removal of deposits
Step 4: Cleaning hard-to-reach areas
Not every area can be reached by large machines.
Specially designed compact machines are used for confined spaces and hard-to-reach areas. This ensures that even smaller areas and peripheral zones can be cleaned professionally.
These include, for example:
- Playground areas
- Entrances
- Peripheral zones
- Areas with restricted access
This ensures that the entire site is cleaned as thoroughly as possible.
Step 5: Restoring water permeability
Removing the deposits re-exposes the pores in the surfacing.
This improves the surface’s water permeability, allowing rainwater to be drained away efficiently once again.
The benefits include:
- Improved drainage
- Reduced water pooling
- Increased safety of use
- Preservation of the surfacing’s functionality
Step 6: Visual inspection and documentation of damaged areas
During the cleaning process, damage that was previously concealed by dirt build-up often becomes visible.
This may include:
- Cracks
- Peeling
- Signs of wear and tear
- Damaged areas of the surface
Documenting these areas of damage enables the targeted planning of potential maintenance measures.
Step 7: Repairs and maintenance as required
If any damage is found, it can then be repaired professionally.
The combination of cleaning and maintenance helps to extend the service life of the synthetic flooring and prevent more serious consequential damage.
The result of professional rubber floor cleaning
Once the cleaning process is complete, the surface not only looks cleaner but also regains its original functional properties.
The key benefits at a glance:
✅ Deep removal of dirt deposits
✅ Cleaning of the open-pored structure
✅ Improved water permeability
✅ Removal of algae and moss
✅ Increased safety in use
✅ Early detection of potential areas of damage
✅ Long-term preservation of the facility’s value
