At LEKOGO, we believe that professional cleaning is about much more than just making surfaces shine: it's about safety, hygiene and care. Whether cleaning offices, beauty salons or residential buildings in London, knowing how to use chemicals correctly is essential for health, quality and the environment.

Always use Appropriate PPE (personal protective equipment).

How to Use Cleaning Chemicals Safely and EffectivelySafety first: protect your:

skin, eyes and respiratory tract.

We always use:

Gloves (nitrile or latex).

Safety goggles or masks when necessary.

Aprons or protective uniforms.

This protects our cleaners and customers from exposure to harmful waste or vapours.

Apply Chemicals Correctly.

Follow the manufacturer's dilution instructions to the letter.

Use colour-coded bottles, mops and cloths to avoid cross-contamination (e.g. between bathrooms and kitchens).

Apply the cleaner to a cloth or mop, not directly to surfaces that may react.

Proper use of chemicals ensures that surfaces remain safe, shiny, and durable.

Ventilation is Essential.

Always clean in well-ventilated areas.

Open windows or doors to maintain air circulation, especially when using strong disinfectants or degreasers.

This helps prevent irritation and leaves rooms smelling fresh.

Store and Dispose of Safely.

Keep chemicals in a cool, dry, locked place.

Store them away from heat, food, and electrical appliances.

Never pour leftover chemicals down the sink; dispose of them according to municipal regulations or the supplier's instructions.

At LEKOGO, we also prioritise eco-friendly cleaning solutions that reduce environmental impact without compromising hygiene.
