Clean Logistics = Efficient Logistics: Your Complete Fulfilment Centre Maintenance Schedule
In logistics, every second counts. Every shipment, scan, and square metre contributes to the bottom line. But when dust builds up on conveyor belts, spills go uncleaned, or break areas are neglected, the entire operation slows down—and risks go up.
That’s why top-performing logistics hubs and fulfilment centres don’t leave cleaning to chance.
At Eaco, we help high-volume logistics operators run cleaner, safer, and more efficient facilities through structured, scheduled maintenance plans. Whether you’re moving parcels, pallets, or products—cleanliness impacts performance.
This guide walks you through the ideal cleaning schedule, tailored to logistics environments where uptime and hygiene go hand-in-hand.
Why Cleaning Matters in Logistics Hubs and Fulfilment Centres
Fulfilment centres operate under extreme pressure—tight timelines, 24/7 shifts, and constant movement of people, machines, and goods. Without a consistent maintenance routine, you risk:
Workplace injuries from spills or clutter
Downtime from dust-clogged equipment
Contamination (especially in food or pharmaceutical logistics)
Damaged reputation with clients and compliance authorities
In short, clean spaces = fewer accidents, smoother operations, and better bottom-line results.
