How to clean your desk.
Get practical tips on how to clean your desk and work space. We have the tips and products here at Tingstad.
An unclean desk makes it harder for you to stay focused and can even expose you to stress. By cleaning and organizing your desk, you give yourself the best conditions for increasing your productivity and focus. Other benefits of cleaning your desk are that you reduce the risk of spreading diseases and bacteria.
A thorough cleaning of the desk should be carried out at least once a month. By cleaning your workspace after each workday, you reduce the time you need to spend on the thorough cleaning.
Here on this page we will give you tips on what should be included in your thorough cleaning, tips on practical cleaning products and a minor review how to effectively clean areas such as computer screen, desk and keybords.

Cleaning the desktop
- Remove loose items from the desk
- Spray the desk with an all-purpose cleaner and then wipe with a microfiber cloth. Alternatively, you can use antibacterial cleaning wipes adapted for desktop cleaning.
