Most businesses buy janitorial services like a schedule: “someone comes, things get cleaned.” NuShield is different.


NuShield is Nu Home’s Workplace Hygiene System—built to help businesses maintain a cleaner, more consistent facility standard with faster issue resolution and management visibility, not just cleaning hours.



In short: NuShield helps you control hygiene, not chase it.


Why We Created NuShield: Addressing Real Business Problems


In Trinidad & Tobago, facilities face unique pressures:


  • High humidity leads to fast odour build-up in washrooms.

  • High-touch surfaces in shared workspaces require constant attention.

  • Recurring complaints about empty dispensers, wet floors, or blocked drains.

  • Issues are often reported late or not at all.

  • Management is often unsure of what was done versus what was missed.


NuShield is designed to reduce these recurring problems by improving three key areas:


  1. Speed: Issues are reported and handled faster.

  2. Consistency: Critical areas receive a higher standard of care.

  3. Proof: Enhanced visibility, tracking, and close-out processes.


What NuShield Includes: A Managed System, Not Just Add-Ons


Nu Home already uses industrial/institutional-grade disinfectants and sanitizers as part of our standard service. NuShield provides an additional layer of protection for businesses that seek a stronger hygiene standard and better control of critical areas.


1) NuShield QR Reporting: Visibility and Fast Response


Employee scanning QR code
An employee uses a smartphone to scan a QR code for reporting washroom issues, ensuring quick and efficient maintenance response.

A QR code placed in critical areas allows staff to report issues in seconds—no app required. This feature is especially valuable because issues can be reported outside normal janitorial service hours, ensuring they are logged and can be addressed as soon as service resumes.


Best outcome: Fewer repeat complaints, faster response, and clear accountability.



2) NuShield Steam Sanitization: Deeper Hygiene for Washrooms and Pantry Areas

A Nu Home custodian expertly uses a steam cleaner to sanitize a bathroom surface, ensuring a hygienic environment.

Steam sanitization adds a heat-based deep hygiene layer for bathrooms, kitchen/pantry points, grout lines, and high-touch fixtures—helping improve cleanliness in areas where routine wiping is insufficient.


Best outcome: Stronger washroom standards, improved freshness, and better deep cleaning of hard-to-reach areas.



3) NuShield Controlled Ozone Treatment: After-Hours Whole-Room Layer

Ozone treatment is used after-hours in unoccupied areas only, following strict procedures (signage, timed cycle, ventilation, and controlled re-entry). It’s particularly effective for persistent odour issues and select critical areas.


Best outcome: Improved odour control and an additional layer of hygiene in enclosed spaces, applied safely.
