irt, mud and grime are not welcome in the workplace, and in some environments like hospitals and schools, tracked-in grit is more than an annoyance – it’s a health concern. The sanitation team cannot be everywhere at once, sweeping up after every person who walks through the door. So, what is the solution? It’s Boot-Boy, an affordable, compact device saving property owners and managers time, stress and money. Boot-Boy ensures employees and customers enter the building with clean shoes. All they have to do is gently rest their shod foot in Boot-Boy and it gently and quickly cleans the shoes. Boot-Boy units are easy to assemble, plug into a standard outlet, and (depending on the model chosen) are suitable for wet and dry use. Boot-Boy is easy to clean and requires very low
maintenance. All the models have warranty, are CSA approved and are made in Canada with reliable North American and global parts. Boot-Boy can be utilized in various settings including building entrances, oil and mining facilities, food processing plants, health centres, construction sites, recreational centres, municipal offices, apartment complexes, golf courses and farms. It’s a small product making a big difference. How did this all come about here in Edmonton? Sheldon Schreiber, CEO of Boot-Boy Industries Inc., explains. “The history of Boot-Boy is definitely a unique one. The machine itself dates back to the 1960s but the rights to the Boot-Boy machine and manufacturing did not come to be until the 1980s.” Boot-Boy || 35 Years 83
