- Con: For high-traffic, industrial-grit areas, you may want a heavier-duty metal alternative.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Corner Deli in York, a popular city-centre lunch spot, needed to formalise its cleaning procedures ahead of a food hygiene inspection. Their previous 'any tool for any job' approach was a clear risk for cross-contamination.
"We bought the full range of Jantex colour-coded cleaning gear, including this red set for the customer toilets. It instantly removed any confusion for our staff. They know red stays in the washrooms, and green stays in the kitchen. It's such a simple, visual system that works brilliantly."
Robert Hughes – Manager, The Corner Deli
The deli successfully achieved a 5-star food hygiene rating, with their new, clear cleaning processes being highlighted as a major strength.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, separate the brush and dustpan.
- Formally assign this red set to its specific cleaning zone (e.g., washrooms) as per your hygiene plan.
- Brief your staff on the colour-coding system to ensure everyone is on the same page.
- Use the handle holes to store the set on a designated hook or cleaning trolley.
Keeping It Going
- Empty the dustpan into a bin immediately after each use.
- Regularly wash the set with hot, soapy water and a suitable sanitiser.
- Always allow the brush and pan to air dry completely before storing to prevent mould.
- Periodically inspect the rubber lip for signs of damage or wear that could reduce its effectiveness.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main purpose of a red-coloured dustpan and brush?
A: The red colour designates it for use in high-risk areas, primarily toilets and washrooms, to prevent the spread of bacteria to other parts of a building.
Q: Are the brush bristles firm enough for commercial floors?
A: Yes, the bristles are a medium-firm stiffness, designed to be effective on typical indoor hard floors like lino, tile, and wood, collecting both fine dust and small debris.
Q: How do the handles connect?
A: The brush handle is designed to clip snugly into a purpose-built groove on the dustpan handle, keeping them securely together for storage.
Q: What is the benefit of the rubber lip on the dustpan?
A: The flexible rubber lip moulds to the floor surface, creating a tight seal that stops fine dust and dirt from being swept underneath the pan.
Q: Can I wash and sanitise this set?
A: Absolutely. The smooth plastic is non-porous and can be easily washed with detergent and/or sprayed with a commercial sanitiser to maintain hygiene.
Q: Is this set heavy to carry around?
A: No, it's very lightweight at just 0.24kg, making it ideal for staff to carry for quick spot-cleaning jobs without any strain.

Explore more from JantexHow Colour-Coding Makes Your Business Safer
Ever wondered why professional cleaning equipment comes in bright, distinct colours? It’s not for decoration. It’s a simple but brilliant system, widely recommended by bodies like the Food Standards Agency, to stop the spread of harmful bacteria. Think of it like a set of traffic lights for your cleaning routine: it gives every team member a clear, instant signal about where a tool should be used.
Using a colour coded dustpan and brush is the perfect example. Red is universally designated for the highest-risk areas, which are toilets and washroom floors. By ensuring this red set *only* ever gets used there, you prevent bacteria from being accidentally carried into other areas, like a kitchen where a green set would be used. It's a nearly foolproof way to uphold hygiene standards, reduce the risk of illness, and show inspectors you take safety seriously.
