Floor Care & Floor Powders for Transport & Logistics in Namibia

Three depot realities: powders survive hot storerooms indefinitely (liquids degrade and their drums bulge in 40 °C sheds), they cost less per square metre at workshop scale, and the abrasive scrubbing action actually cuts the polished oil film that forklift tyres create — which is the film that makes smooth concrete lethal when it rains. Magnus 92 for the oily zones, Biopine where freshness matters (crew areas, warehouse offices).

A fast Magnus 92 scrub-and-rinse the day before, squeegeed dry, gets a general-cargo floor presentable; food-adjacent storage should get Chlordet 110 solution instead so the clean is also a sanitize. Rinse thoroughly either way — powder residue turns slippery under the first spilled pallet of liquid. For painted or dressed office-adjacent floors, maintain with Florshine rather than repeated stripping.

No — and the segmentation sheet splits it exactly: the workshop gets Magnus 92 and industrial chemistry; the depot kitchen and offices get Dishwash, Swan Pine Gel, Mrs Clean and Steripine, with Antisep 100 at the door and Air Sanitizer for shared spaces. Running workshop floor powder through the crew showers is over-chemistry; running pine gel through the workshop is under-chemistry. One order, two lists, clearly labelled shelves.

Partly — regular powder scrubbing removes the fine dust that traffic re-suspends, and a dressed (Florshine) surface in offices and stores sheds dust to the broom instead of holding it. But the real fix at Namibian depots is at the doors: mats, and paving or watering the immediate apron. We supply the chemical half and will say plainly when the answer is civil works rather than another drum.
