As we step into a new year, there’s something energizing about hitting "reset"—even in the world of professional cleaning. At Contec Professional, we’ve spent the past year helping EVS teams, facilities managers, and cleaning professionals rethink what “clean” really means. And 2026 is the perfect time to make some Clean Resolutions that elevate safety, efficiency, and confidence in every space you maintain.
Here are a few resolutions we’re embracing—and encouraging our partners to adopt—for a fresher, smarter, healthier year ahead.
Let’s be honest: reusable textiles had a good run. But lingering bioburden, laundered microfiber that breaks down wash after wash, and cross-contamination risks are so last year (well, last decade really).
This year, cleaning pros everywhere are resolving to break up with germs decisively by choosing tools designed for maximum pathogen removal and minimal risk. Disposable microfiber—like the Premira® line—is making that separation easier than ever. With proven performance and no laundry bottlenecks, single-use solutions offer a clean sweep (literally) for facilities looking to raise their infection prevention game.
It’s time to give germs the breakup speech they deserve.
If there’s ever been a resolution worth keeping, it’s saying goodbye to outdated cleaning methods. Traditional mops and laundered microfiber often fall short of modern expectations—especially in environments where cross-contamination is a real risk.
This year, more facilities are swapping worn-out textiles for high-performing options across the Premira® family:
Premira® Original for powerful, water-only pathogen removal
PremiraVersa® with Scrubberage™ Technology for versatility and extra scrubbing power
New year, new mop. And your floors will thank you.
Sustainability has evolved—and in professional cleaning, it’s no longer just about reusing materials. It’s about reducing waste across the board: unnecessary chemicals, inefficient labor, damaged flooring, and costly rewashing.
This year, more teams are committing to smart sustainability: right-sized tools, thoughtful product choices, and solutions, which is why we launched our EcoShield initiative, highlighting products that protect people, surfaces and the plant.
Sustainability doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it’s as simple as choosing a product that works better, lasts longer in use, and eliminates preventable rework.
Every year, EVS teams, infection prevention specialists, and frontline cleaning professionals show up with dedication, resilience, and a commitment to protecting the people in their buildings.
This year, one of our favorite resolutions is simply to celebrate them more.
Our Healthcare Heroes series continues to shine a spotlight on those whose work often goes unseen but never unnoticed. In 2026, we’re committed to uplifting their stories, honoring their contributions, and championing the profession as a whole.
Because great cleaning isn’t just about great products—it’s about the incredible people who use them.
Whether your resolution is to upgrade old tools, invest in training, simplify your workflow, or strengthen your infection prevention strategy, Contec Professional is here to help you make it happen.
Cheers to cleaner spaces, empowered teams, and a fresh start in the new year. Let’s make 2026 the cleanest, smartest
year yet.
