❓ Frequently Asked Questions About the Green Cleaning Pad
What does the green color on polishing pads mean?
Green is the medium level in the standardized polishing pad color system. This means: balanced material removal, effective dirt removal, yet gentle enough for most hard floors. Lighter colors (beige, white) are gentler, while darker colors (red, black) are more aggressive.
When should I use the green pad instead of the beige one?
The beige cleaning pad is designed for daily light cleaning—for light soiling, not dried-on grime. The green pad is used for weekly deep cleaning, for heavier soiling, or when the beige pad no longer delivers satisfactory results.
On what types of floors can I use the green pad?
On all hard, durable floors: stone, tile, concrete, PVC, linoleum, and industrial flooring. For varnished hardwood floors or delicate sealed wood floors, we recommend the gentler beige pad or the very soft white pad.
What cleaning product should I use?
For deep cleaning, you should typically use a deep-cleaning solution or all-purpose cleaner in combination with the green pad. For heavily soiled floors, a stronger cleaning solution may be necessary. Always check that the floor covering is compatible with the cleaning solution.
How often should I change the pad?
A green cleaning pad can be reused multiple times. After use, rinse it with lukewarm water, clean it with mild soap if necessary, and let it dry. Replace the pad if the surface becomes severely matted, permanently stained, or torn—otherwise, its cleaning performance will be compromised.
Does the pad fit directly onto the machine plate?
Yes, the cleaning pad is placed directly on the standard drive plate (with a bristle coupling or drive pin) of the single-disc machine—unlike sanding screens, which require an additional backing pad. Pads are usually held in place by the machine’s natural contact pressure or secured with pad-holder adapters.
Can I also use the green pad in swimming pools or sports facilities?
Yes, the green pad is a good choice for pool entry areas, locker rooms, shower rooms, and gyms—it effectively removes limescale, shoe scuff marks, and dirt without damaging the flooring. For particularly stubborn limescale, a red deep-cleaning pad may be a good option.
What are the advantages of the 22-mm pad over thinner pads?
The 22-mm thickness ensures even contact pressure and spring action—which is important for consistent cleaning results. In addition, thicker pads contain more material that can be regenerated multiple times through cleaning—resulting in a longer service life per pad.
How quickly will my order be delivered?
All polishing pads are in stock at our Taufkirchen warehouse (near Munich) and are typically shipped within 24 hours via DHL or Hermes.
Do you offer bulk containers for cleaning companies?
Yes—we offer attractive B2B terms upon request for building service providers, hotels, nursing homes, and wholesalers with regular needs. Please contact us with your requirements—we’d be happy to provide you with a customized quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
For which machines is the green cleaning pad (406 mm diameter) suitable?
The cleaning pad fits all standard single-disc machines with a 406 mm drive plate, such as Lägler, MENZER, Bona, Wolff, and Columbus. Its 22 mm thickness ensures optimal contact pressure and even pressure distribution across the work surface.
What is the green cleaning pad used for?
The green pad is designed for intensive deep cleaning and scrubbing—it removes stubborn dirt, old wax layers, cleaning product residue, and light coatings from floor surfaces. It is more aggressive than the beige maintenance pad and the white polishing pad, but gentler than abrasive pads.
What is the difference between the green cleaning pad and the beige maintenance pad?
The green pad is significantly more abrasive than the beige maintenance pad and is suitable for intensive deep cleaning of heavily soiled or neglected floors. The beige pad is designed for gentle daily maintenance cleaning during normal use. Use the beige pad for routine cleaning—use the green pad only as needed for deep cleaning.
What types of flooring is the green cleaning pad suitable for?
The green pad is suitable for hardwood, laminate, vinyl, PVC, marble, granite, tile, and other hard flooring surfaces. For delicate surfaces such as unsealed wood or highly polished stone, we recommend testing it first on an inconspicuous area.
Can the green pad also be used to apply cleaning products?
Yes, the green cleaning pad is suitable for applying and working in alkaline cleaners, deep-cleaning agents, and wax removers. Its open-cell structure absorbs cleaning agents effectively and distributes them evenly onto the surface.
How long is the delivery time?
We ship from our warehouse in Taufkirchen near Munich within 24 hours via DHL or Hermes. Delivery within Germany takes 1–3 business days.
