Proven where the demands are highest.

Ability has extensive experience in airport cleaning and serves contracts at airports such as Oslo Gardermoen, Bergen Flesland and Kristiansund Kvernberget. We handle daily cleaning of the busiest areas — terminals, food outlets and security checkpoints — where efficient, hygienic cleaning is essential for both passenger experience and infection control. We are also responsible for cleaning 1,000 hotel rooms directly connected to the airports.

The right method for every surface.

Dry and damp methods

Modern, highly absorbent mops and cloths handle daily cleaning — damp methods are used where hygiene demands it

Top-grade microfibre

Cloths and mops with 100% split and twisted fibres give low friction, better results and less strain on our cleaners

Low water and chemical use

Our methods need a fraction of the water — and chemicals are dosed as tablets, with no water to transport and far less plastic

Variation through the day

We alternate between methods and equipment — reducing the strain of repetitive work and keeping eyes sharp for detail

Robots handle the large surfaces.

In large, open areas such as terminals, halls and common spaces, we supplement our cleaners with autonomous floor scrubbers and other machine equipment. Machine cleaning is efficient, time-saving and consistent — freeing our professionals for the details that require human eyes and hands.

Autonomous floor scrubbers cover large floor areas with consistent, documentable quality
Cleaners spend their time on details, service and quality control
Equipment is chosen based on floor type and maintenance documentation — the right method for every surface
Combined with sensor data, machines are deployed where the need actually is

Needs-based cleaning with sensor technology.

Sensors measure actual use of rooms, restrooms and common areas. Our in-house AI interprets the data and creates tasks directly in our operations system — cleaners see digitally where cleaning is needed, and resources go where the need actually is. This makes it easier to meet quality requirements such as NS-INSTA 800, and in sanitary zones screens can display the last completed clean and when the next one is due. The result: cleaner premises, lower costs and less use of water and chemicals.

Yes, our cleaning services have been Nordic Swan Ecolabel certified since March 2016. This involves strict requirements for chemical use, waste management and training.

NS-INSTA 800 is the Nordic standard for measuring cleaning quality. You choose the quality level per room type, and we carry out regular inspections.

Needs-based cleaning uses sensors to measure actual usage of rooms and areas. Cleaning is carried out based on need, not fixed routines — resulting in better outcomes and lower costs.

Yes, we deliver cleaning services throughout Norway with offices in Bergen, Oslo, Stavanger and Trondheim.

Yes, on large floor areas we supplement with autonomous floor scrubbers and other machine equipment. The machines take on the heavy, repetitive tasks, while our cleaners concentrate on details, service and quality. Equipment is always chosen based on floor type and maintenance documentation.

Quality is checked in several layers. Our cleaners run self-inspections of their own work, and the operations manager follows up with quality controls and NS-INSTA 800 inspections at the frequency agreed in your contract. Results are summarised in reports covering deviations and improvement measures, and you are welcome to run your own inspections.

Permanent, uniformed Ability cleaners carry HSE cards issued by the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority — we are a publicly approved cleaning company. Everyone is over 18 and receives both foundational training in professional cleaning through Ability Academy and training on your specific contract. During absence, we bring in substitutes from a pre-cleared pool with the same training.
