SaniGLAZE by Cubix, Inc. has been used by Florida school districts for decades as a way to dramatically improve the condition and appearance of their tile and hard surfaces—for a fraction of the cost of replacement. The multi-step restoration process allows schools to sidestep the high cost of ripping out and replacing unsanitary, damaged tile, and instead remove contaminants and instead remove contaminants, ensuring tile and hard surfaces stay cleaner for longer with the custodial efforts that are already happening day-to-day.
How It Works
Starting with an intense extraction process developed through years of rigorous testing and analysis, SaniGLAZE removes deeply embedded contaminants through a variety of proprietary products and processes. Extraction removes all the foul liquids and grime (and the odors they breed) from porous grout lines and damaged flooring. A specially formulated Grout Glazing Compound can then be bonded to existing grout. This restorative bonding process returns grout lines to a “like-new” condition—or better, for those opting to upgrade its color. The multi-step restoration process allows schools to sidestep the high cost of ripping out and replacing unsanitary, damaged tile.
In addition, a SaniGLAZE protective coating can be applied to the entire tile and grout surface. These advanced, proprietary shields can add durability and shine to floors and walls with a clear formulation, or customers can instantly alter a space’s eye appeal thanks to new color options and decorative elements.
SaniGLAZE isn’t all eye appeal, though. Thanks to the SaniGLAZE restorative bonding process, grout lines are securely sealed – banishing moisture, bacteria, and the foul odors they create. Grout, by nature, is porous. Unless it is sealed, water, urine, and dirt can become embedded in grout lines – leading to unsightly surfaces and distasteful smells. Frequent cleaning with harsh chemicals to eliminate soiling can hasten grout deterioration, causing soiling to accelerate.
SaniGLAZE products and processes, formulated for heavy institutional use, can fix this and help provide sustainable maintenance solutions that enhance product longevity and cleaning efficiency. Combine that with an assortment of design options – from bright or soothing colors to eye-catching metallic chips – and you have a hard surface solution that offers long-term value in multiple areas. In addition to cleaning and sanitizing, SaniGLAZE allows facilities to update and improve a space’s design for much less than it costs to replace problem areas. This not only benefits the budget, but it can also positively impact the perceptions of school staff, parents and advocates, and the students themselves.
