As the nights draw in and pumpkins start appearing on doorsteps, Halloween brings its fair share of tricks, treats, and… terrifying messes!

From glittery costumes and sticky sweets to themed events and busy public spaces, October can be a challenging time for cleaning and facilities teams. But with the right products and planning, you can make sure your site stays spotless no ghostly grime or frightening floors in sight.
At Seldram Supplies, we’re here to help you keep your facilities clean, safe, and sustainable even during spooky season.
Avoid the Nightmare of Sticky Surfaces
Halloween means sweets, drinks, and (if you’re in hospitality or education) plenty of sugar-coated chaos. High-touch surfaces like tables, door handles, and handrails can quickly turn into sticky traps.
Use BioHygiene’s biotech surface cleaners to break down sticky residues naturally without harsh chemicals.
Keep multi-surface wipes on hand for quick response cleaning in classrooms and communal areas.
For retail or hospitality spaces, schedule extra cleans at peak times prevention is always better than the late-night fright of last-minute mopping!
Sweep Away the Cobwebs, Literally!
Halloween décor is great fun, but those fake cobwebs, hanging props, and window stickers can leave behind a real mess.
Invest in extendable dusters and microfibre cloths to safely remove decorations from walls and ceilings.
Use Raphael’s efficient dispenser systems for quick restocking in busy washrooms during events.
Make sure your cleaning team has waste separation systems in place to recycle where possible; it’s the sustainable way to de-haunt your space!
Don’t Let Odours Haunt Your Washrooms
With Halloween parties, school discos, and community events, washrooms are busier than ever this time of year. Unpleasant odours can quickly give visitors the wrong impression.
Keep your washrooms award-worthy by using:
Vectair Airoma® or V-Air® Solid air care systems for continuous fragrance.
BioHygiene probiotic cleaners that work deep below the surface to remove organic odour sources.
Lucart or Northwood paper systems for sustainable hand hygiene that perform under pressure.
A clean, fresh-smelling washroom is one ghost you do want people to talk about!
Don’t Get Spooked by Slips and Trips
Spilled drinks, costume glitter, and wet weather can turn floors into a hazard faster than you can say “boo!”.
Make use of Numatic’s scrubber dryers like the TBL4055 or TTB1840NX-R for fast, effective cleaning and drying.
Use high-visibility wet floor signs to protect guests and staff.
Choose anti-slip floor cleaners for added peace of mind.
A quick response plan will help you keep your team and your reputation safe.

Sustainable Cleaning: No Tricks, Just Treats
Halloween may be all about excess, sweets, decorations, and costumes, but your cleaning routine doesn’t have to be. Make your post-event cleanup planet-friendly with sustainable solutions that cut waste and carbon:
Use Lucart EcoNatural products made from recycled beverage cartons.
Switch to Soap₂o plastic-free soap refills to eliminate single-use waste.
Try Thrive cleaning products for locally made, low-impact performance.
Sustainability doesn’t have to be scary. Small changes add up to a big impact over time.
Hygiene never takes a holiday
Whether you’re managing a school disco, a themed restaurant event, or just the annual office costume contest, Halloween is a great reminder that good hygiene never takes a holiday.
At Seldram Supplies, we make sure your facilities are equipped for every season with sustainable, high-performance cleaning solutions that make maintaining standards easier than ever.
Because the only thing scary about your washrooms or workspaces should be the decorations!
