What This Actually Is

The EscaTEQ Method is a defined cleaning system, powered by specialized tools.

• Defined condition classification (A / B / C)
• Defined cleaning frequency based on traffic
• Low-moisture, surface-only cleaning protocols
• CMMS-trackable, repeatable execution

The result is consistent, auditable, and scalable escalator cleaning.

Frequency changes everything. Clean in minutes, not hours—done regularly, not occasionally.

Start with what you see:

Class A — Restorative Condition
Heavy contamination, embedded debris, loss of step definition, early signs of surface degradation. → Requires initial restorative cleaning before entering maintenance protocol.

Class B — Transitional Condition
Visible dirt, staining, and signs of inconsistent prior cleaning.
→ Requires 2 initial cleaning cycles before stabilization and method integration.

Class C — Maintained Condition
Light surface-level contamination with clear step definition.
→ Begin standard maintenance protocol immediately.

Choose your cleaning frequency based on daily passenger traffic.

Cleaning Frequency Is Driven by Traffic — Not Guesswork
(Just like miles determine oil changes, rider traffic determines cleaning frequency.)

Less than 500 riders per escalator per day
→ Clean Quarterly (Every 3 Months)
(Class-A office buildings, corporate HQs, government facilities)

500 – 1,500 riders per escalator per day
→ Clean Monthly
(Office towers, hospitals, department stores)

1,500 – 5,000 riders per escalator per day
→ Clean Every Two Weeks
(Regional shopping centers, large hotels, casinos)

5,000 – 20,000 riders per escalator per day
→ Clean Weekly
(Busy airports, high-traffic shopping centers, transit hubs)

20,000+ riders per escalator per day
→ Clean Daily (Off-Peak)
(Major metro systems, international airports, rail terminals)

Value

Better Cleaning. Same Cost Structure.

• No shutdown required
• No heavy water usage
• Reduced labor intensity
• Higher frequency without increased cost
