There are many industries that have over the last 25 years that have gone from being primarily anaologue to currently being fundamentally digital. Information based companies hardly rely on paper forms or reports to help them operate. The art of analogue photography is a quickly vanishing discipline. With the invention of the 3D printers, even the process of physically replicating any object, has now to a certain degree been digitized.
Regardless of the advances in digital technologies, there are some things that will never be digitized. One of them is dirt. As the decades have rolled by for the janitorial service community in Kansas City, the office and commercials spaces that service professionals maintain have become digitized but their cleaning needs still remain the same. The tools janitorial service professionals rely on can still be found at WinPro Solutions, who have been providing Kansas City janitorial supplies needs since the analogue days. For 25 years the Kansas City cleaning supply store has been providing cleaning solutions to janitorial service providers all across the metro area. Hal Kurz, owner of WinPro Solutions, has worked with every kind of cleaning and janitorial service provider. Hal has an in depth understanding of how the industry has changed and where it is going.
