In the commercial cleaning world, we often talk about "cleaning for health"—disinfecting doorknobs, sanitizing restrooms, and improving air quality. But there is another massive component of facility management that directly impacts your wallet: Asset Preservation.

And your most expensive asset? It’s likely right under your feet.

At Vaakawi, our roots go deep into this subject. Long before we were a nationwide janitorial provider, we started in 1992 as a flooring company. We know floors—how they are made, how they wear down, and most importantly, how to make them last.

For the past year, the conversation around commercial cleaning has been dominated by one word: Disinfection. And rightly so. But as businesses across Phoenix stabilize and look toward the future, we are seeing a renewed focus on another critical aspect of facility maintenance: Sustainability.

At Vaakawi, we believe that a clean workplace shouldn't come at the cost of the environment—or your employees' long-term health. While we have always offered eco-friendly options, we are seeing a massive shift in 2021 where "Green Cleaning" is becoming the standard, not the alternative.

If you have been following the news or researching how to keep your facility safe this year, you have probably heard the buzzwords "Electrostatic Disinfection." It sounds high-tech—almost like something out of a sci-fi movie—but it is quickly becoming the gold standard for infection control in offices, schools, and gyms across Phoenix.

But what exactly is it? And is it really better than a good old-fashioned spray bottle and a rag?

At Vaakawi, we believe in empowering our clients with knowledge. Here is a breakdown of the technology that is changing the commercial cleaning game.

They say the only constant in business is change. As we enter a brand new decade, we are thrilled to announce a monumental evolution in our company’s history. For over 25 years, you have known us as Bacahui Services—a name synonymous with reliability and quality cleaning in Arizona.

Today, we are proud to reintroduce ourselves. We are now Vaakawi.
