I am working at a large warehouse where a gigantic variety of cleaning products, cleaning machines etc. are sold. Everyone living in this world has to do at least a little bit of cleaning, and it is quite educational and (dare I say it) almost inspiring to walk around the warehouse and see all the tools, machines and products available to the cleaning industry.

The problem I have with this is that in my opinion, to a large extent these products and resources are virtually hidden to the general public and the outside world because the products fall under the category (in Googles' eyes) of "Janitorial Equipment Supplier" and the average person, myself included, really does not think to look for stuff to clean with under "janitor" or "janitorial". I propose that an article be written explaining how the janitorial supply business has grown to include many other forms of cleaning beyond the "mop and bucket" image that is called up when you think of the word "janitor" and how the general public might well be able to find resources at these "janitorial equipment suppliers" that would definitely be of benefit to them, they just need to look beyond the category, or to be made aware that these resources exist.

Below is a Sandbox article - hope you like it and I hope you agree with me that this article should be written.

Janitorial Equipment Supplier These days on the web what category a business goes under is very important, especially in online advertising, where more often than not the first the requirement to place an ad is to determine the businesses' category, usually as defined by Google Adwords. The problem with this business categorization is that When you think of a janitorial equipment supplier, and if you go to a janitorial equipment supplies warehouse, you'll find that actually the whole category and industry of janitorial supplies is huge, much bigger than what we think of what a janitor does. The Wikipedia definition for janitor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janitor is "a person who cleans and maintains buildings such as hospitals, schools and residential accommodation. Janitors' primary responsibility is as a cleaner." So the term "janitorial supplies" is a bit misleading because it sounds like these would just be supplies for janitors, right? And a janitorial business traditionally is one that "cleans and maintains buildings such as hospitals, schools and residential accommodation." But the janitorial supplies business has grown exponentially over the years to include much, much more than what was originally needed by the traditional janitorial businesses. A full service janitorial supplies company stocks and carries, besides janitorial supplies, dedicated machines, cleaning solutions, and various accessories, providing products and help to the specialized floor industries, car detailing businesses, restaurant industry, window cleaning businesses, carpet and upholstery cleaning industry, the hotel industry, - and many others The common thread that all these businesses and industries have with the janitorial supplies business is the service provided of "cleaning" and in some cases, restoration, and they have the savvy to buy their supplies at a dedicated janitorial equipment supplier. In contrast, the general public buys cleaning supplies from many different sources and locations, some of the most common being at grocery stores and various 'big box' stores such as Target and Walmart. In most cases, as far as they this is fine for what they need. Businesses though need to buy even their common cleaning products from a company that specializes in cleaning products, which would be a janitorial supplies company, because a good janitorial supplies company would have in stock the very best quality products and quantities of products for what they need to clean, at the most competitive prices. Not only that, but these specialized cleaning companies need great reliable suppliers of the extremely specific products and machines that they need to do their work - without a great janitorial supplies company to work with, their work is almost impossible to do. Here are a few examples, starting with the carpet and upholstery cleaning industry. To effectively perform carpet and upholstery cleaning, companies need carpet extractors (also known as carpet cleaning machines), and these machines need to be top quality, powerful and reliable. They need to be offered in several levels of portability, from full-size ones to the Mytee Lite, which can fit into small places. These same companies need the top quality accessories that go with these machines - the wands, the hand tools, scrubbers and more. They need excellent cleaning chemicals, for removing all kinds of dirt, stains, odors. They need specialized solutions for cleaning oriental rugs, and fabrics on furniture. And, they need experts at the janitorial supplies company that can explain to them the details of how to effectively apply what they are buying. That's not going to happen at any kind of big box store or grocery store or hardware store, is it? No, it takes a dedicated and expert janitorial supplies company to provide that level of products and level of support. Another example. Let's say a company provides all the cleaning maintenance for a large office building, so you might say that it goes under the heading of "janitorial service." In that building are a large number of marble floors that have to be kept cleaned and polished up to a certain level of shine. So this work would go under the heading from above of "specialized floor industry." What most people don't know about marble floors is that marble is a soft stone. Because it is soft, it can be ground down and polished much more easily than a really hard stone such as granite. This is a good thing, but the softness of marble also means that it has to be maintained correctly or else there will be major problems with it. Marble can be dulled and pitted by using the incorrect cleaning chemicals on it. Marble can be scratched by using the incorrect pads under buffing machines on it, and these are just two examples of what can happen with marble floors. Because of this, the janitorial company, the specialized floor industry company finds it absolutely crucial to their business to have a company that can supply them with the correct buffing machines, buffing pads and drivers, marble cleaning solutions, and marble buffing compounds in order to get the job done right first time and every time. When the janitorial company or floor company visits their supplier, they expect and rely on having their needs expertly supplied and supported. So as you can see, the term janitorial supplies means a lot more than janitorial, and a janitorial supplies company to be effective is a lot more than just a supplier, such as Janilink.com
