The APEX Promise
Tile & grout care you can trust—designed to support cleanliness, compliance, and long-term performance.
Tile & Grout Is a Facility-Wide Issue
If it has grout, it can trap dirt, odors, and bacteria.
Tile is durable—but grout is extremely porous. Over time, soil, moisture, bacteria, and improper cleaning methods force contaminants below the surface, where standard janitorial cleaning can’t reach.
This happens anywhere tile exists, including:
Slip & Fall Risk Reduction
Proper tile and grout care can reduce slip-and-fall incidents. APEX’s service increases the Coefficient of Friction (COF) of tile surfaces—helping improve traction, reduce liability, and support safer environments.
