Best Cleaning Tools in 2020 and 2021

With the current pandemic and the quarantine rules, we all got into cleaning and disinfecting our homes thoroughly, looking for tips on how to clean our pinoy homes, and looking into the best cleaning tools available in the market. For those who are not familiar with the cleaning and housekeeping industry, it would be quite overwhelming seeing all these products for cleaning and looking for the best of the best for each. So we have curated below the best cleaning tools to have and keep this 2020 and on 2021.

Best Cleaning Tools

Hydro vacuum (2020 – 2021)

Not all vacuum cleaners are created equal, especially hydrovacs. They come in commercial brands like Hyla, Rainbow and Sirena. Hydro vacuums are unique in such a way that it cleans the air as well while cleaning floors and carpets. It can double as an air purifier during a home cleaning and office cleaning services.

For those who are concerned with airborne diseases from bacteria and viruses like in this pandemic, this cleaning tool is one of the best to invest on. It only covers a certain effective area so you might need multiple hydrovacs in place or letting it operate for a longer period of time. Hotels have been using these vacuums even before the pandemic and we would see the rise in demand for this kind of vacuum in 2021 as health protocols in the new normal would require better surface and air sanitation.

Price range: P60,000 – P150,000

Rotary Mop (2020)

The mop has evolved from the fixed cloth head, to the replacable cloth head, and now the self rotating and drying rotating mop. It has been available for almost a decade already and more and more offices, restaurants and home are using this mainly because of ease of use and easy access to its parts and replacements. It is very cheap as well, you can get a set for only P450 on sale.

The only drawback of this product is that, since it is cheap, most of the material used are cheap, thin plastic. We have tried using this and over time there are cases that the rotary scrubber and drier breaks, the basin itself easily breaks, the handle mechanism gets stuck up and plastic locks breaking among the few. There is still a big room for improvement in mop design and technology, hopefully by 2021 things would be more promising in this part of housekeeping (like this rectangular mop).

Price range: P450 – P1,100

Disinfection Spray and Atomizers  (2020 – 2021)

This pandemic has gotten us disinfecting surfaces like nuts! From santizing our hands to spraying surfaces with bleach and disinfectant. Lucky for us, there are already products and devices available even prior to this crisis. From mini nano spray, to large handheld disinfectant atomizer.

Getting one for daily use is a must, but always remember that the key to a better disinfection is taking note of the coverage area a device can disperse, not just on surfaces you can see but also on surfaces that you can’t, like the Electrostatic disinfection service that we provide that utilizes electrostatic technology – charging the disinfectant to stick to hard to reach and hard to cover areas. 

Price range: P95 – P3,000

Swiffer  (2020 – 2021)

Some of us Filipinos are not blessed with height, hence we need tools to help us reach (and clean) high places. Thanfully, Swiffer is here (and has been for quite some time already). Swiffer is not entirely new, but less common since it is only available in select mall based hardware store, supermarket and S&R. It’s also an American brand and not commonly used by the usual household, but it helps a lot when cleaning the ceiling and top parts of walls.

Price range: P950 – P2,000
