Clean doesn’t always mean it’s disinfected.

A space can look clean at first glance, but germs, bacteria, and residue can still remain, especially in high-traffic and high-touch areas.

That’s why it’s important to include disinfectants as part of your overall cleaning program, not as an afterthought.

At Buckeye, our commercial disinfectants are designed to work alongside routine cleaning to help facilities meet higher standards of cleanliness. Our disinfectant options are EPA-registered, multi-purpose, and effective across a range of environments, including products like Buckeye Sani-Care™ Quat.

A clean appearance is a good start, but a well-rounded disinfecting program helps create a healthier facility.

Our OSHA-certified, government-tested commercial disinfectant sprays provide a clean, germ-free environment. Order the ultimate cleaning solution today!

Are your floors telling you something?

If you’ve noticed your floors yellowing or darkening, it may not be dirt sitting on the surface. It could be a sign that your floor finish is breaking down or no longer performing as it should.

Common signs your floors need attention include:
Yellowing
Powdering
Loss of gloss
Visible wear paths

These issues can indicate it’s time to reassess your floor care approach. With the right floor finish and maintenance program, you can restore appearance, protect the surface, and extend the life of your floors without unnecessary labor.

👉 Buckeye’s Hard Floor Care Program is designed to help facilities address

these issues. Redesign your floor care program with better quality products and procedures that can help you save.

A restroom can say a lot about a facility.

From sinks to touchpoints, these spaces shape first impressions and influence how clean a facility feels.

When restrooms are well maintained, guests leave with confidence. When they aren’t, they often leave with frustration and sometimes poor reviews. Consistent restroom cleaning plays a key role in how a facility is perceived.

To combat this Buckeye’s cleaning program features products that can help keep your restroom clean such as Dy-Phase™, Cert® and more.

Hand hygiene is a daily commitment.

In fast-paced environments, it’s easy to overlook even though it plays a critical role in protecting everyone in a facility.

One way to improve hand hygiene compliance is by using tools that encourage consistent behavior. Beacons and Visual Lighting Cues provide reminders in the moment they matter most, prompting people to sanitize or wash their hands as they move through a space.

What is a Beacon?

Symmetry Beacons are behavioral cues designed to support hand hygiene. These beacons use light projections to trigger a response to take action. Using static image projection variation to keep messaging fresh.

Beacons are easy to use. When a guest walks by the dispenser, a light projection will signal to kindly remind them to sanitize their hands.

As part of the Symmetry Hand Hygiene Program, Beacons help reinforce better habits by reminding users to sanitize when approaching a dispenser, supporting cleaner environments through consistent behavior.

Enhance infection prevention with the Symmetry Hand Hygiene Program from Buckeye International, offering customizable solutions and innovative tools for superior hand hygiene compliance.

Where does effective cleaning begin?

For custodial staff it begins in the custodial closet.

You have to have the right tools and products to begin cleaning. Buckeye proportioning/dilution control systems offer push-button and automatic fill proportioning for ease of use, making it virtually automatic to properly dilute products.

Effective cleaning also requires programs that deliver value. The Buckeye Eco Proportioning Program is one step in a complete cleaning approach designed to be economical, environmentally responsible, reliable, and easy to use. With customizable options, your facilities can build a program that supports your goals.

Buckeye's Eco® Proportioning Program is a chemical dilution system that ensures safety & accuracy. Learn about our cleaning chemical dispensing solutions!

Out with the old. In with a smarter floor care plan.

January is the best time to begin reevaluating your floor care program. Start planning your summer restorative floor care projects with Buckeye.

A well-designed floor care program isn’t just about appearance, it’s about saving labor, money, and extending the life of your floors. Buckeye floor finishes are engineered to be non-powdering and non-yellowing, helping maintain a consistent look while reducing labor time.

One of the biggest advantages of the Buckeye Hard Floor Care Program is the ability to extend strip cycles. Instead of fully stripping all floor layers and refinishing floors every year, many facilities can move to a longer cycle. Routine top scrub and recoat procedures remove only the worn layers of finish and restore protection, saving time, labor, and materials.

Planning at the beginning of the year helps ensure floors can stay protected, professional-looking, and easier to maintain all year long.

Check out the Buckeye Hard Floor Care Program and see for yourself how can we keep your floors shining.

Don’t wait for the flu to break out in your school.

Students are back from winter break, bringing new germs and higher foot traffic with them. Risk of absenteeism is much higher when bacteria and disease spread easily in school.

The best way to stay prepared is with a cleaning program that supports your school. The right products, proper training, and clear procedures help teams stay ready for whatever the semester brings.

Give Buckeye’s cleaning program a try and you won’t be disappointed. We’ll make sure no spill or germ is left uncleaned

Peak Gym Season is here and so are the germs.

With New Years resolutions in full swing, gyms are busier than ever and that means more shared equipment, more sweat, and more germs. Studies show that germs can spread easily in the gym, especially on weights, machines, and mats.

If you’re a gym owner, finding the right products that are compatible with your equipment and fit the traffic flow in your facility is just as important as increasing membership or hiring the right employees.
As traffic increases, so does the importance of routine cleaning, disinfecting high-touch surfaces, and promoting good hand hygiene to help keep members and staff healthy.

Keep your fitness spaces clean and welcoming all season long.
