Hi good day to all,
May I ask if there is a standard color coding for cleaning tools. because I believe cleaning tools that is in color red should only be use on rest rooms/toilets.
Thanks in advance

It's largely up to you (unless there is some specific regulatory requirement in your area, although not aware I've ever seen such a thing).
The key element is to define what colour can be used for what purpose, and ensure that this is clear and trained to all staff. If they're using the wrong item in the wrong area then refresher training is needed!
No standard exists for that, it's your call. However, I would use white for food contact surfaces.
I'd prefer a contrasting colour to my product(s) to spot any contamination from damaged tools.
