Summer is here, and for many facilities that means it’s go-time. With schools letting out and foot traffic shifting outdoors, June is the season for deep-cleaning projects, floor refinishing, and getting ahead of summer’s heat and humidity. This month we’re starting with an important pricing update, then covering summer deep-clean season, restroom care and odor control, outdoor and entry-way prep, and a fresh look at hand hygiene and break room supplies. Let’s dive in.

📈 Pricing Update: Get Ahead of Rising Plastic Costs
|
You may have noticed prices moving on certain products, and we want to be upfront with you about why. With the recent rise in oil prices, petroleum-based products — including can liners, gloves, and other plastics — have seen cost increases across the entire industry.
|
⚠ Buy Early & Save
Placing your orders early is one of the best ways to get ahead of these increases. Buying ahead helps you lock in product, avoid potential stock shortages, and save money overall as costs continue to climb.
|
RMS is doing everything we can to keep costs down for our customers and soften the impact of these increases. We’ll continue to source competitively and pass along savings wherever possible. In the meantime, planning ahead on your plastic-based supplies is a smart way to protect your budget and stay ahead of any supply issues. Reach out to your RMS rep and we’ll help you stock up before the next round of increases.

☀️ Summer Deep-Clean Season Is Here
|
With schools out and many buildings running at reduced occupancy, summer is the ideal window to tackle the big projects that are tough to fit in during the busy months. Stripping and refinishing floors, deep-scrubbing, and large-scale maintenance all become far more manageable when hallways and classrooms are empty.
Now is the time to plan your summer floor program and project list. RMS has the finishes, strippers, pads, equipment, and supplies you need to get the job done right — and the expertise to help you build an efficient plan.
| ► |
Floor Stripping & Refinishing — Strip away a year of wear and lay down fresh finish for floors that shine all year. |
|
| ► |
Summer Projects — Carpet extraction, high dusting, wall washing, and the deep-cleaning tasks that need an empty building. |
|
| ► |
Equipment & Supplies Ready to Go — Auto scrubbers, burnishers, pads, and chemistry from the brands you trust. |
★ Featured Products
Get your summer project supplies ordered early so everything is staged and ready the moment your building clears out. Talk to your RMS rep to map out the season.

🚻 Restroom Care & Odor Control for the Heat
|
As temperatures and humidity climb, restrooms become the area where odors and bacteria are most likely to take hold. Heat accelerates everything — which makes a consistent restroom care program more important in summer than at any other time of year.
|
Why It Matters
Restroom cleanliness is consistently ranked the number-one factor in how visitors judge a facility. In summer heat, staying ahead of odor and moisture protects both your image and the health of everyone in the building.
|
| ► |
Touch-Free Dispensers — Soap, towel, and tissue dispensers that reduce cross-contamination and cut down on waste and mess. |
|
| ► |
Air Care & Odor Control — Automatic dispensers, urinal screens, and deodorizers that keep restrooms smelling fresh around the clock. |
|
| ► |
Bowl & Surface Cleaners — Powerful daily cleaners and disinfectants that tackle bacteria at the source. |
★ Featured Products
Let RMS help you build a complete restroom care system that keeps things fresh, sanitary, and welcoming all summer long.

🌳 Outdoor, Grounds & Entry Season
|
Summer moves activity outdoors, and your building’s exterior and entrances are working harder than ever. Curb appeal, safety, and cleanliness all start at the perimeter — and a little attention here keeps soil and debris from ever making it inside.
| ► |
Pressure Washing — Blast away winter grime, gum, and buildup from sidewalks, entryways, dumpster pads, and building exteriors. |
|
| ► |
Trash & Waste Receptacles — Indoor and outdoor containers, liners, and lids to handle increased summer foot traffic and volume. |
|
| ► |
Outdoor & Entry Matting — Scraper and wiper mats that stop dirt and moisture at the door, protecting your floors and reducing slip risk. |
★ Featured Products
Stocking up on receptacles, liners, and entrance matting now keeps your grounds clean and your entrances safe through the busiest months. Ask RMS about competitive pricing on all of it.
