There are concerns that the cleaning industry is, perhaps, unprepared to deal with the current surge in demand. Nexstep Commercial Products is committed to supply our customer’s with the best-quality, innovative cleaning solutions that your end users need urgently. Please see below for our products that will help your customers ensure they are cleaning effectively, so to prevent further spread of COVID-19 virus.
Microfiber
Nexstep offers a Full Line of microfiber tools available and ready to ship. Microfiber provides the most sanitary way to clean effectively.

  • MaxiPlus® Microfiber Cloths for cleaning surfaces, along with the chemicals used for this purpose. Color Coded to lower cross-contamination risks.

  • MaxiPlus® Microfiber Loop-End Mop is made from microfiber spun into a cable twist. This allows the mop to maintain its structure & form after up to 400 washings. Used along with the proper chemicals, this is the most effective mop to thoroughly clean floors

  • MaxiPlus® All-In-One Cleaning System is our convenient bucket-less system makes cleaning floors easy, no longer requiring many separate tools - this one item replaces wet mops, mopsticks and mop bucket & wringers. Used with any 18" microfiber flat mopping pad, like our MaxiPlus® Microfiber Wet Mopping Pads in Blue or Green.
But what happens when everyone’s stock of Microfiber depletes??? Delays are already occurring on product coming into our country from China (where all Microfiber Products originate). Thanks to 75% of our line being Made-in-the-USA, Nexstep will be able to continue supplying the tools to keep your end-users safe. As an American manufacturer, we pride ourselves in not only the quality of our raw materials, but the workmanship we exhibit in manufacturing the end products. 
Wet Mops
With the current situation, using mops that will not build-up mold or mildew in floor care is a primary concern. Nexstep manufactures many conventional mop heads made to thoroughly clean floors while not spreading germs or bacteria on surfaces. 

  • Healthi-Pro® Anti-Microbial Mops are made from quality synthetic yarns. This yarn is treated with an agent providing built-in anti-microbial protection thus inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew, and fungi and cannot be washed out.  

  • Shrinkless Loop-End Mops are synthetic mops made of post-consumer waste rayon and PET material. These will not promote a buildup of bacteria and can be easily cleaned and washed.

  • MaxiRayon™ Loop-End & Cut-End Mops are made from quality rayon material that will not promote mold or mildew and can easily be cleaned after use. 

Remember to use Fiberglass Mopsticks, so to thoroughly protect and sanitize. Our unique Quick Change™ Mopstick, Fiberglass provides No-Touch mop release, ensuring the user is not exposed to additional germs in the dirty mop. It also is available in Red, Blue and Yellow to prevent cross-contamination.

With this pandemic situation, a greater importance is placed on having the proper cleaning tools available to your End-Users. Nexstep Commercial Products ( Exclusive Licensee of O-Cedar) remains committed to supplying you with these items. Please let us know if there is additional information that would be helpful during this time. Together, through education of best practices, we can help the spread of COVID-19.
