3M™ Easy Trap Duster-Sweep & Dust Sheets Trap up to Eight Times More Debris

 

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Feb. 9, 2016 — Dust, sand, hair…for facilities such as hospitals, schools and retailers, keeping commercial spaces free of unwanted debris is an ongoing challenge. It can appear virtually anywhere, from floors to ceiling vents. To help tackle dust and debris from the ground up, 3M introduced the 3M™ Easy Trap Duster-sweep & dust sheets, a product designed to trap and hold up to eight times more dust, dirt and sand than a conventional flat fringed cotton dust mop and a professional version of a common household sweeping dust cloth brand.

3M Easy Trap Duster-sweep & dust sheets are all about efficiency and versatility. The disposable sheets can be used on both sides, and have the power to trap more hair than traditional mops, glide through and trap hair on dry or wet floors, and pick up small particles like glitter and sand. Designed for the cleaning needs of a variety of facilities—including hospitals, schools, hotels, gyms, hair salons, veterinarian clinics and car dealerships—the Easy Trap Duster sheets can be used with virtually any flat mop or duster to clean nearly every surface.

“With Easy Trap Duster-sweep & dust sheets, we’re able to go wherever the dust and dirt is. We’ve designed a product with the means to tackle a daily maintenance issue more quickly and efficiently than most products in use today,” said Rochelle Quandt, market development manager for 3M Commercial Solutions Division. “Whether you’re dealing with dirt and debris tracked into a hospital each day, hard-to-see hair in a hotel room, or dusty air vents in a large office space, Easy Trap can do the job.”

The sheets are made with a minimum of 60 percent recycled content, and with proprietary, non-woven fibers. A unique 3M adhesive technology ensures consistent debris collection throughout the sheet. Thanks to the adhesive technology, the sheets will adhere to virtually any flat sweeping tool, or wrap around your high dusting tools. Lower drag, meanwhile, reduces worker fatigue. To maximize efficiency, a specifically designed head, the 3M™ Easy II Holder, features an “A” shape that allows the user to sweep large debris without it tumbling over the holder. It also makes it easy to flip the duster over and utilize the other side, without having to bend over and handle the dirty sheet. The holder is compatible with a standard treaded U.S. broom handle.

The full Easy Trap Duster System is made up of the 3M™ Easy II Holder, which includes a dust head & holder available in 17-, 23-, 35-, 47- and 59- inch sizes, and 3M™ Easy Trap Duster-sweep & dust sheet rolls that are available in five-by-six inch or eight-by-six inch sheets. The Easy Trap Duster System was created by 3M Commercial Solutions Division, which has been recognized and respected as a leading janitorial-sanitary solutions provider for more than 50 years.
