Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Café in Torquay needed to upgrade their cleaning supplies to better align with new food hygiene standards. Their old, mismatched buckets were cracking and made it impossible for staff to follow a consistent colour-coded system.

"We needed something simple, tough, and blue! This Jantex bucket has made our closing clean-down so much more efficient. The dirt sump is a small detail that makes a huge difference to the end result, and the staff find it easy to use."

Liam O'Connell – Head Chef

By introducing the Jantex buckets, the café successfully implemented its new hygiene policy, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and cutting down on overall cleaning time.

Why the Dirt Sump is a Cleaner's Best Friend

Ever notice how quickly mop water turns murky? The integrated dirt sump in this Jantex S225 cleaning bucket is designed to fix that. Think of it like a colander at the bottom of your bucket. When you dunk your mop and wring it out, heavy grit, food debris, and dirt fall through the grid and get trapped underneath. This means your mop is always going back into cleaner water, not just swishing around in its own filth. The result? You're not just pushing dirt around the floor; you're actually removing it, giving you a proper, hygienic clean with every single pass. It's a simple feature that dramatically improves the effectiveness of your cleaning.

Installation and Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, remove all packaging and give the bucket a quick visual inspection.
  • Ensure the metal handle is securely attached to the bucket's pivot points.
  • If using colour-coded inserts or clips (sold separately), snap one onto the handle or bucket.
  • The bucket is now ready for use – just add water and your preferred cleaning solution.

Keeping It Going

  • Always rinse the bucket thoroughly with clean water after each use to prevent residue build-up.
  • Make sure to empty and clean out the dirt sump to remove trapped grit.
  • Store the bucket upside down in a clean, dry area to allow it to air out completely.
  • Periodically check the handle and bucket for any signs of stress or cracking, especially after heavy use.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Mop Bucket

Not sure which bucket is right for the job? Here are a few things to consider to make sure you get the best fit for your business.

Capacity vs. Area

A larger capacity like this 25 litre mop bucket is great for big floor spaces as it means fewer trips to the sink. For smaller cafes or shops, a 10-15 litre bucket might be more manageable.

Material Matters

Always opt for a tough material like polypropylene for a commercial environment. It resists chemicals and won't crack under pressure like cheaper, domestic-grade plastics.

The Power of Colour

A colour-coded system (e.g., blue for general areas, red for washrooms) is vital for preventing cross-contamination and is a key part of HACCP compliance. Choose buckets that are available in multiple distinct colours.

Wringer Type

This bucket has a static sieve, which is great for traditional socket mops. For flat mops or if you need very dry floors quickly, consider a bucket with a geared wringer for extra pressure.

Portability

Think about how far you'll be carrying it. A sturdy handle is essential for stairs and general movement. For very large, flat areas like halls or warehouses, a bucket on castor wheels might be a better choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this bucket suitable for use with strong cleaning chemicals like bleach?

A: Yes, the heavy-duty polypropylene construction is resistant to most standard commercial cleaning agents and disinfectants.

Q: What type of mop head works best with this sieve?

A: This bucket is ideally suited for traditional socket mops and Kentucky-style mops, which work well with the high sieve wringer.

Q: Does the Jantex S225 cleaning bucket have wheels?

A: No, this model is designed for portability via its strong metal carry handle. Models with wheels are available if required.

Q: How does the dirt sump actually work?

A: It's a simple and effective way to ensure the right equipment is used in the right area, preventing bacteria from a washroom being spread to a kitchen, for example.

Q: Is the handle comfortable to hold when the bucket is full?

A: Yes, the metal handle has a central plastic grip that is moulded for a more comfortable and secure hold, even when carrying a full 25 litres.

What Customers Are Saying

A proper, solid bucket. So much better than the cheap ones from the supermarket that break after a month. The handle is strong and doesn't bend.
