Señalética
Hola a todos:
Estoy traduciendo la señalética de un hospital y me aparece un letrero que pone "Limpieza".
Según me han explicado es un cuarto donde se guarda el material de limpieza, el que utilizan las señoras que limpian el hospital (cepillos de barrer, cubos, bolsas de basura, fregonas, etc.). La verdad es que no tengo muy claro si hay un término acuñado para este término en este contexto:
Cleaning room, cleaning utensils, cleaning tools, cleaning equipment.... ninguno me convence, la verdad.
Muchas gracias de antemano.

: This does not sound like a likely "label" at a hospital in the US (don't know about the UK). It would be more likely in a school or apartment building, not a hospital.
