The Industry’s Most Reliable Source for High Powered Cleaners
APTER INDUSTRIES has long been a trusted manufacturing source for high quality cleaners for convenience stores and travel plazas. We strive to get our products to the retailer faster. Being in business for over 50 years enabled us to establish a preferred customer status with our raw material suppliers. Couple this with our long-standing relationships with convenience store wholesalers and you have an incredibly high service level. If store team members can’t get cleaning supplies in a timely fashion, they can’t provide a safe shopping environment. We will continue to make sure they succeed.

A slippery floor is a dangerous floor. Floors become slippery when deeply embedded soil clogs the pores. As a result, feet never make solid contact, so safety becomes an issue. TILE TIME deep cleans floors which raises the slip coefficient and brings back their luster. TILE TIME blasts through heavy grease from food service, tracked in petroleum-based soil, road salt stains, and brings grout back to its original color. TILE TIME can be safely used on ceramic tile, marble, quarry tile and wax and no wax vinyl floors. Unlike typical floor cleaners, TILE TIME works without heavy scrubbing. Now available in 2-ounce packets as well as gallon containers. Wake up your floor with TILE TIME.
