Thursday''s Ask the Experts question from a cleaning professional on the International Custodial Advisors Network (ICAN) "Ask the Experts" page: I am trying to get information about the durability of Centiva no finish flooring tiles and what some of the problems may be in facilities that have had the product for several years, preferably in a hospital setting or, at least, a high traffic building. Also, report any problems that may have developed in regards to cleaning and maintenance/repair/installation.
The answer:
Well, we can wait for another few weeks, but it appears no one on our list has any experience with Centiva. May I suggest putting your question on the CMM bulletin board to reach others who may have a basis for comment? As we wait, let me make a comment on something I found on the website at www.centiva.com/v2/www/SpecsPDFs/Clean_Green_Specs.pdf. This listing of cleaning procedures refers the reader to several Centi products the tile manufacturer has private labeled and recommends for its flooring.

While I'm uncertain if the floors that I've dealt with have been specifically Centiva brand, "no finish" vinyl flooring but I have a solution that works in daily maintenance. Tennant's ec-H2O(tm)chemical free cleaning technology that electrically converts water to behave as a powerful detergent not only works but works well. I've seen immediate results, higher reflectivity and NFSI safe clean dry floors. Customer's with 'no finish' vinyl flooring have all liked the results.
