WINCHESTER, Va., Feb. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- For the fifth year in a row, Rubbermaid Commercial Products (RCP), the leader in durable facility maintenance solutions, won Today's Facility Manager Magazine (TFM) Readers' Choice Award as the number one brand in the Maintenance/Cleaning Products category.

2011 Readers' Choice Award

The annual national competition, conducted by TFM and distributed to 10,000 of their 50,000 subscribers, surveys its readers on various "aided" and "unaided" components. Readers in turn cast their votes for the product brand and service providers they preferred most during 2010. Scores from both components are combined to determine the top companies in various categories. Those categories span the wide range of products and services that facility managers rely on to succeed, including building products, furnishings and security systems, in addition to maintenance and cleaning products.

"Facility managers continue to face tough challenges," said Neil Eibeler, global president of Rubbermaid Commercial Products, LLC. "And we are honored to be recognized once again as their top brand in cleaning and maintenance. As a partner for the smartest solutions, we stand strong with our commitment to help facility managers succeed in their work and careers."
