At CanSweep, we’ve been deeply involved in dust control and industrial cleaning across Christchurch and Canterbury for years. Our region’s unique industrial landscape, shaped by its post-earthquake rebuild and ongoing development, presents ever-evolving challenges. We’ve played a vital role throughout these changes—remaining an essential service provider during the Canterbury earthquakes, continuing through the COVID-19 pandemic, and contributing to numerous projects during Christchurch’s rebuild.
In a place where dust exposure and contamination are heightened by unpredictable weather, we understand how crucial regular sweeping and scrubbing are—not only to ensure the safety of workers but also to protect local water resources. High winds, rain, and other disruptions can stir up dust and debris, increasing the risk of contaminants entering stormwater systems. Our cleaning practices are designed to address these risks head-on, ensuring cleaner, safer, and more compliant industrial sites.
Through this blog, we’ll share our experiences, insights, and practical advice—whether it’s handling urgent post-disruption cleanups or maintaining day-to-day industrial hygiene. With our longstanding commitment to Christchurch and Canterbury, we’re here to offer the knowledge we’ve gained from navigating these challenges firsthand.

Regular floor scrubbing combined with sanitizers ensures a clean and healthy work environment. Deep cleaning with modern scrubbers removes grime and germs, while sanitizers eliminate bacteria, preventing illnesses from spreading. Dust removal through vacuum sweeping reduces allergens, creating a healthier workspace. CanSweep leads in industrial cleaning with advanced equipment, eco-friendly solutions, and health-focused training, ensuring employee safety and productivity during colder months.
