Product Information
Full details
The Robert Scott Abbey Deluxe Broom is designed for janitorial staff, facility managers, and homeowners looking for a reliable, heavy-duty solution for sweeping hard floors. Its primary benefit is the combination of stiff synthetic filaments and a wide 30cm head, which efficiently moves debris while ensuring long-term durability. However, it is important to note that this broom is specifically optimized for hard surfaces and is not suitable for sweeping carpets or delicate flooring that requires soft-bristled brushes.

FAQs
Can this broom be used on wood floors?
It is not recommended for delicate or highly polished wood floors, as the stiff synthetic filaments may cause minor surface scratches.
What is the total width of the broom head?
The broom head measures 30cm in width.
Does the handle come included?
Yes, the product is sold as a complete unit and includes the compatible handle.
Is this broom suitable for wet surfaces?
While the plastic head and synthetic bristles can handle moisture, this tool is designed primarily for dry debris collection. If used wet, ensure it is cleaned and dried thoroughly.
What material are the bristles made of?

Troubleshooting
Bristles becoming splayed or flattened.
Avoid storing the broom with the bristles resting on the floor. Use a wall-mounted hook to hang the broom by the handle.
Debris sticking to the synthetic filaments.
Gently tap the broom against an outdoor wall or use a stiff hand brush to comb through the bristles to dislodge trapped particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The broom is delivered fully assembled and ready for use. No additional tools or setup steps are required. Compatibility is limited to hard surface flooring, including concrete, ceramic tile, industrial vinyl, and stone floors. To maintain the broom, ensure bristles are shaken out after each use to prevent debris buildup at the base. Periodically rinse the brush head with warm water and a mild detergent to remove grime, then allow the bristles to air dry completely in an upright or hanging position to maintain their shape and stiffness. Avoid storing the broom with the bristles compressed against the floor, as this will cause them to splay over time.
