Rubber flooring, concourses, stands, locker rooms and restrooms all take a beating on game nights. Equip your crew with battery scrubbers, sweepers and no-touch cleaning systems that turn the building around fast between events.
Use soft scrub brushes or non-aggressive pads and a neutral-pH cleaner. Avoid solvents and harsh degreasers, which can dull or damage rubber. Always check the flooring manufacturer's care guide.
Plan for ice-melt and grit
Skate guards, boots and ice-melt leave grit and film near entrances and benches. Sweep or vacuum loose debris first, then scrub, to protect pads and squeegee blades.

What is the best machine for cleaning rubber rink flooring?
A battery walk-behind auto scrubber with a soft brush or gentle pad is the most common choice. It scrubs and recovers the water in one pass, so the floor is dry and safe for skaters quickly. Orbital scrubbers work well for deeper cleaning of heavily soiled rubber.
Can floor scrubbers be used on rubber flooring?
Yes, with the right setup. Use soft brushes or non-aggressive pads, moderate down pressure and a neutral cleaner, and follow the flooring manufacturer's recommendations.
Do you sell ice resurfacers or ice edgers?
Not at this time. This page covers floor care and facility cleaning for the rest of your arena. Call us if you need help sourcing other rink equipment.
Ride-on or walk-behind scrubber for a concourse?
Walk-behind scrubbers suit locker rooms, bench areas and smaller lobbies. Ride-on scrubbers cover large concourses much faster and reduce operator fatigue on long event-night shifts.
Will a dehumidifier fix fog over the ice sheet?
No. Fog and condensation over the ice surface are handled by the building's dedicated rink dehumidification system. Portable commercial dehumidifiers are for locker rooms, equipment storage and mechanical rooms.
