Preschools & nurseries

A lot happens in a preschool or nursery in a short time

Children come in from the outdoor area and take off their shoes and outerwear, bringing moisture, sand and grit inside. If this is not contained at the entrance, the dirt quickly spreads to playrooms and shared areas.

N3 helps preschools and nurseries with a complete solution. N3 Zones stop dirt and moisture at the entrance. N3 Smart provides insight and documentation showing where cleaning is actually needed. N3 Ready can reduce the workload through automation where it makes sense. The result is smarter, faster and better cleaning, making everyday life easier for both children and staff.

Cleaning that starts at the entrance

An overview that makes it easier to prioritize

Cleaning needs in a preschool or nursery vary from one area to another. Some areas experience heavy traffic, while others experience less. N3 Smart makes it easier to identify where cleaning efforts are needed most and track changes over time using reliable documentation.

When the goal is to create a healthy indoor environment for young children, it is beneficial to take preventive measures against moisture and dust. This means identifying where the exposure is greatest and taking action early.

The simplest measure has the greatest impact

The most important measure in a kindergarten is often the simplest: stopping dirt at the entrance. With the right N3 Zones at the entrance, sand, gravel, and moisture are trapped before they turn into dust and cause wear and tear further inside the building.

The solution is permanently installed and stays securely in place in the entrance area. This helps create a tidier, more predictable day-to-day environment when lots of little feet are running in and out. In suitable settings, these solutions can trap up to 93 percent of dirt at the entrance, as documented in case studies.

N3 Zones were developed in collaboration with the Norwegian Asthma and Allergy Association (NAAF). The solution is used in kindergartens, schools, and other facilities where it is important to reduce dirt, dust, and moisture right at the entrance.

Support that frees up time in your day

When large floor areas are kept consistently clean, more time is freed up for tasks that require human judgment and presence. With N3 Ready, automation can handle parts of the routine cleaning, giving cleaning staff more time to focus on the tasks that make the greatest difference in day-to-day operations.

Combined with well-designed N3 Zones and data-driven insights, you get a solution that delivers consistent quality without making day-to-day operations more complicated.
