Stearns 5-Point Premeasured Daily Cleaning Systems

Stearns 5-Point Premeasured Daily Cleaning Systems

Build a more consistent cleaning routine with Stearns 5-Point premeasured cleaning systems. Designed for commercial facilities and professional custodial teams, these systems combine task-specific cleaning concentrates with premeasured packets and supporting accessories to simplify daily cleaning, chemical preparation and staff training.

Choose a conventional Stearns 5-Point Daily Cleaning System or the GS 5-Point Green Cleaning System to find a solution that fits your facility's cleaning requirements. Both systems are designed to help organize routine cleaning around designated products for common facility maintenance tasks.

Choose a Stearns 5-Point Cleaning System

Stearns 5-Point systems bring multiple cleaning products together in a coordinated program. Instead of managing every daily cleaning chemical separately, facilities can use a defined group of products for routine floor care, general cleaning, glass and stainless steel, restroom maintenance and designated disinfecting applications.

5-Point Daily Cleaning System

The conventional Stearns 5-Point Daily Cleaning System Starter Kit combines five cleaning formulations in premeasured One Packs. The kit includes supporting supplies such as bottles, sprayers, pack openers, a mixing hose, Safety Data Sheets and training materials.

It is a practical starting point for facilities looking to establish a consistent daily cleaning process with multiple task-specific products.

GS 5-Point Green Cleaning System

The GS 5-Point Green Cleaning System provides a separate cleaning program built around designated GS cleaning concentrates and supporting products. It is an option for facilities evaluating green cleaning products as part of their purchasing and maintenance requirements.

Review the individual product details and applicable certifications when determining whether a particular formulation meets your facility's requirements.

Five Core Areas of Daily Cleaning

The 5-Point approach organizes cleaning around different tasks instead of relying on a single formulation for every surface. The conventional starter kit includes five product types intended to address common cleaning needs throughout a facility.

1. Neutral Cleaner

A neutral cleaner concentrate supports routine cleaning of suitable floors and washable surfaces. It is useful for facilities that need a designated product for everyday maintenance. Always verify surface compatibility and follow the product label.

2. Extra-Strength Cleaner

An extra-strength cleaner is intended for cleaning tasks involving heavier soil or greasy buildup. Keeping a dedicated formulation available helps staff select a product appropriate for the cleaning task rather than automatically using a stronger chemical for every application.

3. Window and Stainless Steel Cleaner

A designated window and stainless steel cleaner helps staff maintain suitable glass and metal surfaces. Use the product according to its label and confirm that it is appropriate for the specific surface being cleaned.

4. Restroom and Bowl Cleaner

Restroom and bowl cleaner supports designated restroom maintenance tasks. Keeping restroom products within an organized cleaning program can help staff identify the appropriate formulation for the application.

5. Disinfectant Cleaner

The conventional starter kit includes a designated disinfectant cleaner for appropriate cleaning and disinfecting applications. Follow the product label for approved uses, dilution instructions, required surface contact time and other directions.

How Premeasured Cleaning Systems Work

Traditional concentrated cleaning chemicals can require staff to measure the correct amount of product before adding water. Stearns One Packs simplify this process by supplying a premeasured quantity of concentrate for its designated application.

Step 1: Select the appropriate product

Identify the cleaning task and choose the formulation intended for that application. Use the product label and facility procedures to confirm the correct selection.

Step 2: Prepare the solution

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for adding the premeasured concentrate and the specified amount of water. Use the appropriate bottle, bucket or other approved container for the application.

Step 3: Clean according to label directions

Apply the prepared solution as directed. For disinfecting applications, follow all label requirements, including any specified contact time.

Step 4: Store and identify supplies properly

Use the appropriate product labels and follow your facility's chemical handling, storage and training procedures. Keep Safety Data Sheets available to employees as required.

Benefits of a Standardized Daily Cleaning Program

A coordinated cleaning system can help facilities organize products and establish repeatable procedures across custodial shifts, buildings and cleaning teams.

  • Premeasured portions: Reduce the need for staff to manually measure concentrated products for each preparation.
  • Task-specific formulations: Keep different cleaning needs organized around designated products.
  • Supporting accessories: Starter kits can include bottles, sprayers, pack openers, mixing equipment and training materials.
  • Consistent procedures: Establish repeatable preparation and use practices for staff working across different areas of a facility.
  • Portable preparation: Premeasured products can simplify solution preparation without relying on a centralized dispensing installation for every application.
  • Organized chemical management: A defined product system can make it easier to train employees on product selection and handling.

What Is Included in a Stearns 5-Point Starter Kit?

Kit contents vary by model, so review the individual product listing before ordering. The conventional 5-Point Daily Cleaning System Starter Kit includes five types of cleaning products in premeasured One Packs, along with accessories to help a facility begin using the system.

  • Premeasured cleaning concentrates for five common cleaning tasks
  • Silk-screened bottles and sprayers
  • Pack openers

Who Should Consider a 5-Point Cleaning System?

Stearns 5-Point systems may be suitable for organizations that need several cleaning formulations and want a more structured approach to daily facility maintenance.

  • Schools and educational facilities: Organize routine cleaning tasks across classrooms, common areas and restrooms.
  • Office buildings: Support daily maintenance of floors, work surfaces, glass and restrooms.
  • Healthcare and institutional environments: Maintain designated cleaning procedures using products selected for the facility's requirements.
  • Retail and commercial properties: Help staff follow consistent cleaning routines across public and employee areas.
  • Multi-building operations: Standardize product selection and training across multiple locations where the same cleaning program is appropriate.

Facilities should evaluate their surfaces, soil conditions, sanitation requirements, employee procedures and applicable product labels before choosing a system.

How to Choose the Right Stearns System

Consider your cleaning requirements

List the tasks your staff performs most often, including floor cleaning, general surface cleaning, glass maintenance, restroom care and any required disinfecting applications. Confirm that the selected system includes products appropriate for those tasks.

Evaluate conventional and GS options

Compare the standard 5-Point Daily Cleaning System with the GS 5-Point Green Cleaning System. Review the formulations, product documentation and any certification requirements that matter to your organization.

Estimate your solution needs

Consider the number of employees, the areas being maintained and the frequency of cleaning. Compare the stated kit yield and pack quantities with your expected usage to help plan replenishment.

Check included equipment and supplies

Review each kit's included bottles, sprayers, mixing accessories, pack openers and training materials. Confirm what is supplied with the starter kit and what may need to be ordered separately.
