Clean spaces. Happy employees.
Nordic Swan-labelled cleaning across Norway — performed by certified cleaners, with robotics, sensor technology and minimal use of chemicals.
Cleaning that fits the building.
Nine building types, nine ways of solving it. What they share is the people, the method and the measured quality.
Offices
Workstations, meeting rooms and common areas, adapted to how the premises are actually used.
Shopping centres and retail
Large common areas and many visitors throughout opening hours.
Culture, cinema and theatre
Short windows between performances, and auditoriums that must be ready every time.
Hospitals and operating theatres
The strictest hygiene requirements, with infection-control cleaning to fixed procedures.
Nursing homes
Resident rooms and common areas, where hygiene and everyday life have to work together.
Housing cooperatives
Stairwells, lifts and common areas with a fixed frequency and visible quality.
Schools
Classrooms, changing rooms and common areas with heavy wear and clear frequency requirements.
Kindergartens
Hygiene at low height, where toys, tables and touch points demand a system.
Cleaning services.
Daily cleaning
Periodic cleaning
Specialised cleaning
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.
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.
Quality that can be verified.
From cleaning plan to monthly report, every delivery can be documented
A cleaning plan for the building
A room list with room type, floor covering, area, frequency and quality level, coordinated with the cleaning drawing.
Self-inspection
The cleaner checks their own work and reports when something cannot be removed, so method and chemistry can be adjusted.
Inspection to NS-INSTA 800
The operations manager takes spot checks against an agreed standard. The results are shown in digital dashboards.
Deviations and monthly report
Deviations are logged and closed traceably, normally within 24 hours. One monthly report with KPIs.
Orderly conditions behind the delivery.
Cleaning is bought by people who have to defend the choice internally
The Nordic Swan Ecolabel applies to the whole operation.
The Nordic Swan Ecolabel is the official Nordic environmental label. For cleaning services it sets requirements for the entire operation of the cleaning company — not just for individual products.
The requirements cover, among other things
Together these are meant to keep the cleaning gentle on both the environment and the indoor environment. For businesses with their own sustainability targets or reporting obligations, it also gives them a documented part of the supply chain to point to.
Ability has delivered Nordic Swan Ecolabelled cleaning services since March 2016. Licence 2076-0089 is valid through December 2029.

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.
