What does the future of office cleaning look like in 2024?
January 11, 2024 | Posted by Jani-King TeamAs the last few years have shown us, cleaning practices and technology are always evolving. As with many industries, there has been a noticeable drive to improve environmentally friendly practices within office cleaning, whilst also increasing operational efficiency and effectiveness, and this looks set to continue in 2024.
Here at Jani King our team are committed to staying abreast of the latest technologies and cleaning innovations, in order to deliver the best possible service to our customers, and so let’s take a closer look at just what changes you can expect to see in the world of office cleaning as we move into 2024 and beyond.
A Focus on Green Cleaning
Office cleaning methods can play an important role in reducing the environmental impact of a business’ operations and therefore green cleaning practices - such as reducing paper waste and using eco-friendly cleaning products - will continue to be used widely across office spaces.
We can also expect to see a move towards greener cleaning technology, such as robotic vacuums and air purifiers, a focus on recycling, and a reduction in water use and wastage. These more efficient methods will not only reduce reliance on chemicals but can also help to improve air quality - meaning cleaner, healthier offices!
Smart Cleaning Technology
We can also expect to see a rise in smart cleaning technologies that will enable the customisation of cleaning schedules based on requirements and optimise the cleaning process. This could help to both improve the cleanliness of your office space and also the efficiency and cost effectiveness of cleaning resources.
The development of automated cleaning technology will also likely continue, becoming even more sophisticated and efficient - with robotic cleaners able to move around office spaces autonomously and clean hard-to-reach areas with ease.
Increased Cleaning Standards
Post-pandemic, people and businesses have become increasingly aware of the importance of cleanliness, and this is likely to continue as we see an increasing shift from working-from-home to hybrid working practices. As more people return to the office on a regular basis, businesses are stepping up their cleaning standards even further, in order to create safe and healthy working environments. These measures could include investing in more sophisticated equipment such as air purifiers and ensuring that your office space is thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis.
It may also be necessary to implement more rigorous processes such as testing surfaces for bacteria or sanitising workstations after each use. This could help to prevent the spread of illnesses and ensure that your workspace remains clean and hygienic at all times.
Customised Services
No two office spaces are the same, so we can expect to see a move towards even more tailored services that can cater to the individual needs of each business.
This could mean creating customised packages for clients, such as offering different levels of cleaning depending on usage or providing more flexible services that respond to changes in the working environment. This could help to ensure that you are getting the most out of your cleaning services and that your office space is always kept in top condition.
Emphasis on Providing Exceptional Service
Any business owner will already understand the importance of delivering exceptional service to their customers, and this will continue to become a key priority. The cleaning market is a saturated one, and this means that businesses will need to work even harder to stand out from the crowd.
By 2024, we can expect to see a move towards more personalised customer service and a greater emphasis on developing relationships with clients. This could mean providing more support and advice to help businesses improve their cleaning practices and ensuring that any queries or complaints are dealt with efficiently and effectively using the latest technology.
Adapting to Hybrid and Remote Working Practices
Convenience and adaptability are key elements of providing exceptional service, and 2024 is likely to bring with it a move towards more flexible cleaning practices - especially as hybrid and remote working continue to remain a popular choice amongst office workers. This could mean offering services that can be tailored to the needs of remote workers, such as providing deep cleans of home offices or one-off visits.
It could also involve using more automated cleaning technology and advanced software in order to ensure that any physical office spaces are kept clean and safe on a regular basis - even when there are no staff present. This could help to make the transition between remote and on-site working smoother, and ensure that your office is kept clean, hygienic and welcoming, regardless of the number of people present.
