Industry Use and Application

Rubbermaid Commercial brooms are built for tough environments—indoors and out. From lobby brooms that slide into cleaning carts to 36-inch push brooms that clear dust and grease off warehouse floors, every tool is made for daily use on rough surfaces, high-traffic areas, and tight cleaning schedules.

Lobby and Front-of-House Cleaning

The Executive Series Lobby Broom—available with either a wood or vinyl handle—is designed for quiet, efficient cleaning in areas where presentation matters. Its flagged polypropylene bristles sweep up dust and fine debris without stirring it into the air. The slim broom fits neatly into janitorial carts and storage areas, making it easy to access between shifts. Ideal for hotel lobbies, reception areas, elevators, and restrooms, this broom supports quick spot cleaning without disrupting guests or staff.

Heavy-Duty Sweeping in Warehouses and Yards

The MAXIMIZER™ 36-inch Push Broom and Warehouse Heavy Duty Corn Broom are built for serious cleanups. They move bulky waste, thick dust, and grease across wide, uneven surfaces with speed and control. Their durable design holds up through repeated use on concrete, loading docks, and outdoor work areas. These brooms are a reliable choice for facility teams managing construction sites, factories, and distribution hubs where heavy foot traffic and debris are part of the daily routine.

Indoor Corner and Edge Sweeping

The Angle Broom and Jumbo Smooth Sweep Angle Broom are designed to reach where standard brooms fall short. Their angled broom heads and flagged bristles sweep easily along walls, under desks, and into corners. These brooms are lightweight yet durable, making them a practical choice for offices, classrooms, and public toilets. They handle both smooth and uneven surfaces, helping cleaning teams tackle fine dust and debris during routine touch-ups or end-of-day cleaning tasks.

Outdoor Maintenance and Hard Surface Sweeping

The 36-inch Assembled Push Broom with fine polyethylene bristles is built for large-scale, dry sweeping tasks. It easily moves leaves, dirt, litter, and loose debris across concrete, asphalt, and paved surfaces. This broom is well-suited for cleaning crews working in shopping centers, car parks, and building exteriors. Its wide reach and durable construction make it reliable for repeated outdoor use, helping teams keep open-air commercial and industrial spaces clean and hazard-free.

Handle Options for Every Task

Rubbermaid offers multiple 60-inch broom handle types, including lacquered, tapered, threaded, and Super Lock models. Each handle provides a strong connection to the broom head, reducing slippage during sweeping. These are designed for comfort and reliability during long shifts across janitorial, maintenance, or facility cleaning routines.
