hello

everyone today we are going to talk

about uh

chemicals chemicals which we are using

on board a cruise ship within the

housekeeping

department so normally we divide

chemicals in a few categories the

chemicals which we use to take care of

the carpet chemical which we use to care

for the flows hard surfaces also we have

chemicals to use in the disos machines

and there are chemicals which can be

used as general purpose in the multiple

areas we can use

them before we start talking about the

chemicals in detail the most important

thing about the chemicals which we we

need to ensure that we always always

follow before we uh use the chemicals

the number one thing is read the

instructions so any chemical which we

are using we just need to ensure that we

are reading all the instructions how to

use what is the dilu should be what all

the personal protective equipment we

should be using while using the chemical

to protect

ourselves also the another important

thing

is holding the chemical separately so we

have acid chemicals we have alkaline

nature chemicals and both the chemicals

should not be mixed or never should be

mixed so their storage supposed to be

separate the use supposed to be separate

also none of the chemicals ever ever

should be mixed together they have their

own purpose to use they have their own

areas to use and they must be used in

the same way without

mixing there are a few other things

which we can look after just like do not

take the concentrate chemical because we

have dispensers all around the ship and

uh the proper dilution supposed to be

there

these chemicals been tested before

coming on board and they only give the

the right outcome or the product which

you are looking if we use them with the

proper dilution if we try to use

concentrate chemicals it will not only

harm the product it will also harm

ourself while we are using

them each chemical comes with chemical

information database uh material safety

database whatever you call C or MSDS

seat and we always must refer the CID

and CID or MSDS both should be there in

the chemical storage areas so before we

use the chemical we we ensure that we go

through with this chemical information

database or MSDS seat which exactly

tells us that what to do in over

situations the pp with personal

protective equipment which we should use

for each chemical what happen if there's

a spell what we can do do what happen if

chemical Falls in ice what all the

precautionary measures we should take

what's the nature of the chemical acid

alkaline neutral so all these things we

must remember all the times before we

using any kind of the

chemicals now I will take you through

with various chemicals which we are

using on board but as I said before you

use any of the chemical ensure that you

are following the steps which I I just

mentioned so first of all I will use I

will discuss the chemicals which we we

can use as general purpose they can be

used inside the gas cabin they can used

in the public rooms or any other areas

even in the crew areas so the first very

first chemical which we have is Max

magic 2 max magic to chemical which can

be used mainly uh to to clean hard

surfaces uh the dilutions is coming from

the dispensers so you don't need to

worry it about you spray it you leave it

5 minutes uh to give its contact time to

work on the surface and then you can

scrub and you can rinse out with your

normal water uh there's another chemical

which we use in the gas cabin or in the

public toilets or in even the crew

toilets that's a crystalline bio this is

the only chemical which is approved on

board to put inside the WC bowel uh we

do not put any other chemicals in the WC

ball because it it goes along with the

water into the tanks storage tanks and

it creates foam over there and which

overflows and create lot of other issues

for the plumbing team so always always

remember to use crystalline bio chemical

for the toilet it also clear the pipes

the drainage pipes because on board the

WC system works on the Evac and the

pipes has to be cleared all the time so

that also works there's another chemical

I have here is a antibacterial hand

soap which can be

used or which which is getting used for

the hand washing purpose there another

soap also comes clean and smooth there

are two different names but the same

purpose they get used to do the normal

hand washing uh there's one more

chemical which is called clean escape

room

freshener as it says it is room

freshener we get it from the dispensers

we spray in the air it settled slowly on

the carpet and it gives a great

fragrance later on do not spray too much

do not directly spray on the hard

surfaces try and spray in the in the air

obviously careful with your eyes uh but

let it get settled on the carpet uh to

to work better

so let's talk about the carpet care we

have different different uh chemicals to

use different carpet and

upholster there are mainly two types of

carpet cleaner one is weight shampooing

chemicals and another one is dry carpet

shampoing chemicals and we have to

separate machines to different types of

machines to use for these two chemicals

so the first one which we have here is a

procam dry

carpet

cleaner we use host machines on board to

do the dry carpet

shampooing as always any carpet which we

shampooed we we need to vacuum first

then we use sprinkle this dry powder on

the carpet and then we use the host

machine the host machine is designed in

such a way got the brushes underneath

and it's got a strong vacuum also to

suction the the dust and dirt out of the

carpet so that is how the dry carpet is

working we have a separate training

video for how to use the host machine

using the dry carpet

cleaner then there is weight carpet

shampoing so there are two chemicals

mainly we use for the weight carpet

shampooing and there are separate

machines we have on board to do the

weight carpet shampoing the first and

important chemical is power

breust we spray we dilute this in the

sting pumps and we spray on the carpet

after once the carpet is vacuumed and we

leave it for 10 minutes so what power

bus does is he loosen the piles of the

carpet which allows us when we are using

the next chemical crystalline

green so in the same way we spray the

crystaline green after 10 minutes once

the power bust is settled uh crystalling

green is carpet

shampooing chemic

and we just use with the vet shampooing

machine so these two chemicals we use

when we are when we are using a we

carpet shampooing method now beside that

there are other chemicals also which we

can use we have a procam Fab clean let's

talk about uh Fab clean as it says it's

a post cleaner we you we have a small uh

aost cleaning machines on board and Feb

clean can be used in those to clean all

kind of purple Street it can be chairs

it can be heavy curtain uh so that's

what we are using there's another

chemical uh to maintain the carpet

basically uh it's not a shampooing kind

of things but to the small areas

something called Citrus gel this

chemical

used for twing gum for oil marks so what

we do is we just drop wherever we see

these kind of Twingle and grease Mark we

drop the Citrus gel on the top and from

outside to inside we rub it with the

cloth and that helps us to remove the

stains from there there's another

chemical sport

remover basically as it says any

stubborn stains on the carpet we can

remove using

spot we can spot

remover yeah we can use spot remover to

to remove this stains from the carpet so

these are the main chemicals we are

using to maintain the carpet on

board so let's talk about the hard

surfaces the hard flow surfaces which we

have across the across the

ships uh mainly we'll start talking with

ceramic so any ceramic surfaces we use

normally s so5 this is the chemical

design for the Ceramics like a wasp or

WCS if you want to use uh there is

another ch chical called s55 that is for

the hard surfaces hard flows across the

SHP in the public areas mainly or uh

basically this is a chemical to avoid

any slips or trips so it's kind of

everyday after we clean the heart

surfaces we mop we use this chemical uh

on the floor we just apply the chemical

with the diluted 1 to 40 is the ratio

which we use for S so

55 we we apply on the floor and we just

leave it to get it air dry and that

allows Flo not to get slippery there's

another chemical called S

85 85 is also is the same kind of nature

but normally we do not use on daily

basis

8585 is a periodically so after every 15

days we use the scrubbing

machine using the chemical s85 with the

diluted form in the diluted form and we

suction with the suction machine we

leave it for the air dry and then on the

top we again apply so

55 if we

have a scaled buildup on the floor for a

longer time we can use uh mainly it is

in the bathroom so we can use lemones

lemon is the chemical which can be

applied directly on the surface we scrub

with the scrubber and we rinse it out

and there's another chemical which is uh

heavy duty bathroom uh cleaners called

lemon lip yeah so lemon lip and lemon is

more or less works in the same way uh to

to clean the heavy deposits of scales in

the bathroom

areas so after cleaning the carpet

bathroom hard surfaces there is one

thing which also housekeeping need to

look after is the disposes in all the

pantries we have and this is to ensure

that all the cutleries and cookeries

which we use in the gas cabins are clean

and disinfected

properly so there are two types of

chemicals which normally

use in the dis forces one is super

Trum and another one is rinse dry they

come in a gallon form can we just

replace as it is in the disos and dises

are designed in such a way that they

take the small quantity of these

chemicals super Trum and Then followed

with the rinse dry during the cycle War

cycle and to help to clean the utensils

or Cutlery and crackery there's another

one chemical which we also use for the

disposer is limea limea away is the

chemical which is designed when we have

a scale buildup inside the diser after

because of the hard water as and when we

notice but normally on board once in a

month we use Li in the disposer to

descale all the

disposers uh

moving

forward there are metal everywhere on

board and all types of metals we have

brass stainless Steels you can see

everywhere on the floors or the base of

the chairs

everywhere to make sure that they are

maintained cleaned and Shining we have a

chemical called

eosine or copper sign

special there are different different

names but they works in the same way

it's very easy to

use having a cloth apply on the metal

surfaces leave it for some time and then

use the another cloth clean cloth and

rub it rub it until the chemicals comes

off from the metal surface and it gives

the

shine okay uh before we finish with the

chemical I have a couple of more

chemicals to mention uh limea special is

one of them limea special we normally

use for the shower head when we are

cleaning shower heads once in a 3 months

that's a periodically task which we need

to complete limea special we'll be using

before we use uh cicor solutions to

disinfect the shower heads so cleaning

part will be done with the limea special

and there are two more chemicals the

final two I would say um rb1 and RB to

these chemicals normally we use in

jacuzzi bof filming biof filming is

again a a treatment which we are doing

once in every 6 month in all the Jacuzzi

or wful jetted SP tubs which is there in

the suite

Cabins this is just to avoid lenella

forming in the in the in the nozzles or

in the BBS so this is again once in a

six- Monon task there's a separate

training video made for the biof filming

and how to to do the biof filming so you

have seen now what all the chemicals we

are using within the housekeeping

department on

board the key takeaway is never mix the

chemicals never drain the chemicals into

this cus or SHP

drains it can harm to the Sea

Life use proper personal protective

equipments to protect yourself

never mix the chemicals store them

separately alkaline and

acid use chemical information database

before you start using any of the

chemical and always always make sure

that you do not use concentrate

chemicals so these are the key things

which we need to remember while using

any chemicals on

board thank you very much for watching

this I hope this information is useful

for you

all
