Stearns Water Flakes Neutral Floor Cleaner – 2 x 90 x 0.5 oz Water-Soluble Packets, Makes 540 Gallons

Stearns Water Flakes Neutral Floor Cleaner – 2 x 90 x 0.5 oz Water-Soluble Packets

Stearns Water Flakes Neutral Floor Cleaner #2708954 provides commercial and institutional facilities with an efficient portion-control system for routine hard floor maintenance. Each case contains two packages of 90 individual 0.5 oz water-soluble packets, providing 180 total premeasured packets.

Each packet makes 3 gallons of properly diluted cleaning solution when prepared according to the manufacturer's directions, giving a complete case a total potential yield of up to 540 gallons. Instead of purchasing, transporting, and storing large quantities of diluted ready-to-use product, facilities can keep the compact concentrated packets on hand and add water at the point of use.

The neutral cleaning formula is designed for routine maintenance on most floors and removes soil from heavy-traffic areas while helping protect floor finish. It can be used on a variety of commercial flooring surfaces including terrazzo, marble, slate, vinyl, asphalt, ceramic tile, and quarry tile when used according to manufacturer directions.

The premeasured Water Flakes system also helps eliminate one of the most common problems associated with concentrated cleaning chemicals: inconsistent dilution. Employees simply use one packet for every 3 gallons of water, eliminating manual chemical measuring and helping provide consistent dilution from one batch, employee, shift, or location to the next.

Convenient 2 x 90 Packaging for Multi-Location Cleaning

The two-package configuration makes this version especially convenient for facilities with multiple custodial closets, buildings, floors, or cleaning teams. Each 90-packet package represents up to 270 gallons of prepared floor cleaner, allowing facilities to distribute product where it is needed without sacrificing the convenience of portion-controlled dosing.

For example, one 90-packet package can be assigned to one building or custodial team while the second package is placed in another location. This can simplify product distribution and inventory management across larger facilities and multi-building operations.

Why Choose Premeasured Neutral Floor Cleaner?

Using too much concentrated floor cleaner doesn't necessarily produce a cleaner floor. Overuse can waste chemical and may leave unnecessary residue behind. Premeasured packets provide the correct amount of concentrate for the specified volume of water, helping facilities control chemical consumption while simplifying employee training and daily cleaning procedures.

Concentrated Cleaning Without the Measuring

Stearns Water Flakes combines the storage and transportation advantages of concentrated cleaning chemicals with the simplicity of a premeasured portion-control system. Each 0.5 oz packet contains the concentrate needed to prepare 3 gallons of neutral floor cleaning solution according to manufacturer directions.

Why Ship and Store Water When You Can Add It On Site?

A case of 180 Water Flakes packets can produce up to 540 gallons of prepared floor cleaner, yet the product is shipped and stored as concentrated 0.5 oz packets. Because water is added at the point of use, facilities avoid purchasing and storing the equivalent volume as pre-diluted ready-to-use cleaner.

This concentrated approach can significantly reduce the physical volume of product that must move through the supply chain and be stored within a facility. Depending on purchasing and freight arrangements, concentrated packets may also help reduce shipping requirements compared with ordering equivalent quantities of ready-to-use liquid cleaner.

Two Packages for Easier Distribution

With two separate 90-packet packages per case, facilities have additional flexibility when distributing cleaning supplies. Each package can be assigned to a separate building, floor, custodial closet, cleaning cart, or team while maintaining the same standardized 3-gallon-per-packet dilution system.

Control Chemical Usage with Every Packet

Each packet provides a premeasured amount of concentrate for 3 gallons of water. This makes it easier to control chemical consumption and reduces the possibility of employees pouring more concentrate than necessary into buckets, mop tanks, or other cleaning solution containers.

Easy Inventory Planning

The fixed 3-gallon yield per packet makes remaining cleaning capacity easy to estimate. One complete 90-packet package represents up to 270 gallons of prepared solution, while both packages together provide up to 540 gallons. Facility managers can quickly estimate available cleaning capacity simply by tracking the number of packets remaining.

Ideal for Routine Floor Maintenance

Water Flakes Neutral Floor Cleaner is well suited for frequent maintenance of commercial floors, including areas that experience significant daily foot traffic. Its neutral cleaning formula helps remove routine soil while helping protect floor finish, making it a practical choice for ongoing maintenance programs.

High-Traffic Floor Cleaning

Entrances, corridors, classrooms, offices, retail aisles, dining areas, and other frequently traveled spaces can accumulate soil quickly throughout the day. Stearns Water Flakes Neutral Floor Cleaner is designed to remove soil from these high-traffic areas while supporting the facility's regular floor maintenance program.

Perfect for Multi-Building & Multi-Team Operations

The 2 x 90 packet configuration is especially convenient for organizations responsible for cleaning multiple buildings, floors, departments, or areas. Each 90-packet package can be distributed independently while still providing the same premeasured portion-control system throughout the facility.

For example, one 90-packet package can be placed in one building or custodial closet while the second is assigned to another location. Since each 90-packet package can produce up to 270 gallons of prepared cleaning solution, facilities can distribute a substantial amount of cleaning capacity without storing large containers of diluted floor cleaner at each location.

Ideal for Commercial Cleaning Contractors

Commercial cleaning contractors can benefit from the compact packet format when servicing multiple customer locations. Premeasured packets are easy to transport between accounts and eliminate the need for employees to manually measure concentrated floor cleaner at each job site. The predictable 3-gallon yield per packet also makes it easier to plan chemical requirements for individual customers.

Standardize Dilution Across Your Facility

When multiple employees are responsible for floor maintenance, manually measured concentrates can result in inconsistent dilution from one employee or location to another. The Water Flakes system simplifies the process by providing a premeasured packet for every 3 gallons of water, helping facilities establish a consistent floor-cleaning procedure across shifts, departments, and locations.

Do I need to measure the floor cleaner concentrate?

No. Each packet contains a premeasured amount of concentrate for 3 gallons of water, eliminating the need to manually measure liquid cleaning chemical.

What is the advantage of premeasured packets?

Premeasured packets help maintain consistent dilution, simplify employee training, reduce chemical overuse, and make inventory easier to manage. Employees use one packet for every 3 gallons of water rather than estimating how much concentrate to pour.

What types of floors can this cleaner be used on?

The manufacturer lists terrazzo, marble, slate, vinyl, asphalt, ceramic tile, and quarry tile among the suitable floor surfaces. Always follow manufacturer directions and verify suitability before use on unfamiliar or specialty flooring.

Is this cleaner designed for finished floors?

Can concentrated packets help reduce shipping requirements?

The concentrated packet format greatly reduces the amount of liquid volume that must be transported compared with purchasing an equivalent quantity of pre-diluted ready-to-use cleaner. Because water is added at the point of use, facilities are not purchasing and transporting that water as part of the finished cleaning solution. Actual freight costs and savings will depend on order quantities, shipping method, destination, and other factors.
