Didn’t your mother teach you not to judge a book by its cover?
At first glance, a case of 12-ounce bottles looks pricey compared to a gallon jug. But looks can be deceiving. Here’s why Whittaker’s pre-measured bottles are the smarter buy.
1. No guesswork
Competitor jugs leave mixing up to the “glug-glug” method. For the uninitiated, that means measuring the cleaning solution based on the number of glugs you hear as you pour the solution. Sure, it’s easy, but by no means scientific. More often than not, you end up pouring way more solution than you need, wasting solution, and wasting money.
Plus, over-mixing wastes product and leaves residue. It’ll gunk up your machines and dull your carpets, leading to more maintenance and cleanings.
The solution is simple. Take glugs out of the equation with Whittaker. Our bottles are perfectly portioned — pour, mix, clean. Simple.
2. Same cost, better results
How can less product save you money? Cost-per-use.
Instead of comparing the bottles purely on volume, take a closer look and see how much solution is needed to clean the same amount of square footage.
When you do the math, cost per square foot is nearly identical across brands — about half a penny. Whittaker packs a bigger punch, covering the same square footage with less solution.
What’s more, Whittaker gives you consistent chemistry every time, so you’re not paying for uneven results. Whittaker uses just 3L per 10 square meters, while competitors use 92L of water per square meter. You’re paying for a concentrated, effective treatment, instead of a watered-down solution with unnecessary bulk.
3. Less waste, less mess, more saving
When it comes to solutions, it’s not “the more, the merrier.”
Over-mixed solutions don’t just waste money.
When someone overmixes and cleans a carpet, it can actually attract more dirt, force re-cleaning, and shorten carpet life. An improperly measured solution wastes money, and creates more work for your team.
Pre-measured bottles keep your chemistry (and your results) consistent. It takes the guesswork out of the process, making it easier for everyone, from seasoned carpet cleaners to new employees, to keep spaces clean.
4. Designed with busy teams in mind
Figuring out how much solution is required to clean a carpet shouldn’t be complicated. But, things can start to get tricky when you consult brand-provided dilution charts. These charts can be confusing to understand, leading to overusing products.
Best case, a studious employee takes time to read the chart, making the whole process take longer. Worse case, the dilution chart gets lost on day one, and everyone’s guessing when it comes to how much solution they need to clean a carpet.
In facilities with turnover, not everyone reads dilution charts (or even has them). Pre-measured bottles simplify one of the most complicated steps in the process, making sure even new staff get it right on day one. Whittaker makes it simple; the same dilution, everytime. We’re providing proven, consistent results for your chemicals.
The Bottom Line
Don’t let the price tag fool you. Smaller bottles mean smarter use, better results, and cleaner carpets.
