What is industrial cleaning?
Industrial cleaning removes stubborn dirt from industrial environments. Industrial cleaning refers to the same type of cleaning; both terms refer to specialized cleaning in factories and workshops within the industrial sector.
Industrial environments generate specific types of contamination: grease, oil, chemical residues, metal dust, production waste, and other contaminants. Regular cleaning does not remove this stubborn dirt; industrial cleaning requires different methods. Industrial cleaning uses powerful cleaning agents and advanced equipment such as high-pressure washing and chemical cleaning.
The Difference from Regular Cleaning
Proper industrial cleaning protects equipment and machinery, extends their service life, and keeps production areas hygienic. Thorough industrial cleaning prevents disruptions in production processes, ensures hygiene, and provides a clean work environment. Cleaning in the industrial sector contributes to food safety.
Sectors in which we provide industrial cleaning services
12B Clean provides industrial cleaning services in six sectors, each of which requires its own approach.
- Food industry. Cleaning of production areas and equipment in accordance with HACCP. Food production requires strict hygiene and the highest quality to ensure food safety.
- Chemical and petrochemical industries. Cleaning of tanks, pipes, and equipment, often in potentially explosive environments. Working with breathing air and compressed air in accordance with SIR guidelines.
- Manufacturing and production industry. Cleaning factories, production halls, and machinery contaminated with grease and metal dust.

How much does industrial cleaning cost?
The cost of industrial cleaning depends on five factors: the size of the production area, the frequency of cleaning, the methods used, the height or whether the space is enclosed, and the industry. Regular cleaning results in lower maintenance costs. An industrial cleaning company with years of experience charges transparently on a per-job or monthly basis.
After an on-site assessment, 12B Clean provides a no-obligation quote for industrial cleaning; we want to ensure there are no surprises later on. If you’re unsure, 12B Clean will perform a free trial service. Our specialists will respond within 24 hours in the event of an emergency.
