Tipton Linen can help your business or industry decrease the amount of indoor dust and dirt. Our products can also improve air quality, increase workplace safety, reduce fatigue and prevent carpet wear and tear. We offer four types of dust control products.

Floor Mats

        About 70% of the dust inside a building is tracked in from outside. The most effective way to trap dust is through the use of a floor mat. Floor mats are called the silent janitor because they stop the dust before it enters your building.
        Floor mats enhance the appearance and safety of your building by absorbing water, mud and soil. They protect your high-traffic areas and carpeting, and reduce the chance of slippery floors. They are useful not only at entrance areas but in areas that are used often such as vending machines, check-out counters, restrooms, water fountains and kitchens. We can add your company's logo to your floor mats (see below) making them not only useful, but attractive as well.

Here are the dirty little facts about floor mats:

• Floor mats that are professionally cleaned can capture 70% of the dirt and dust tracked into a building.
• One-square yard of commercial carpeting can accumulate one pound of dirt every week; two pounds in wet weather.
• Only 10% of dirt is removed from a floor mat with a vacuum cleaner.
• A clean floor mat will pick up dust and dirt better than a dirty mat.
• Having Tipton clean your floor mats assures you of clean and attractive mats.

CompuTuft® Logo Mats
CompuTuft® logo mats combine beauty and function to produce a mat that is highly effective in protecting your floors from damaging dirt and moisture. These logo designs are sewn in using our state-of-the-art computerized MasterWeave® process. Static dissipative, solution-dyed nylon fiber helps guarantee the yarn against color loss for the life of the mat. Long-lasting, beautiful graphic logos are the result.

CompuTuft logo mats can be designed using up to six colors selected from our extensive selection of colors.

CompuTuft are available in a wide range of custom sizes, in 3', 4', 5' and 6' widths up to 23' long.

Dust Mops

        Though a rental floor mat is the best way to prevent dust from coming inside your building, some dust does make it inside. Tipton can supply you with specially-treated dust mops that are designed to collect and hold dust from walls, floors and other surfaces.
        Dust mops are treated to help them attract dirt and dust. Our rental dust mop strands are strong and can withstand pushing, pulling and twisting.

Here are the dirty little facts about dust mops:

• Disposable mops are poorly constructed and are meant to be thrown away.
• Puchased, launderable mops cannot withstand commercial laundering.
• Home laundering cannot remove all the dirt from a mop.
• Brooms just push dirt around and can dull or scratch certain surfaces.
• Tipton's dust mops are of superior quality and are professionally treated.

Wet Mops

        Wet mops are for use in cleaning any type of hard flooring. Our loop-end, rental mop is superior to a cut-end style and will absorb five to six times its own weight. Made of a blend of yarns, our wet mops are designed for strength and absorption.

Here are the dirty little facts about wet mops:

• Purchased cut-end mops are not treated with an anti-microbial formula and will present a serious odor and discoloration problem.
• Cut-end mops leave long strands of yarn in the work area, adding time and labor to remove them.
• Tipton's wet mops will not leave strands as cut-end mops do because of their one-piece construction.
• Our wet mops are superior to the cut-end mop in strength, cleanliness and absorption.

Shop Towels

        Shop towels are a clean and absorbent product that can be used to wipe your hands, or to wipe down machinery, furniture and equipment. Tipton can provide your business or industry with a continuous supply of towels.
        Shop towels can be dyed to show their end use such as white for food processing; blue or gray for printers; red or orange for mechanics; yellow for wiping surfaces.

Here are the dirty little facts about shop towels:

• Shop towels are more absorbent than paper towels. It may take 5 to 10 paper towels to do the job of one shop towel.
• Buying rags is a gamble in that they may not be made from absorbent material that can damage equipment and surfaces.
• Five 18 x 18 shop towels cost less than a pound of rags.
• Shop towels are reusable, therefore there is no disposal cost.
• Shop towels don't fill up landfills as do paper towels.
