Safety: No room for slip-ups

Accounting for more than 40% of workplace accidents, the HSE estimates that slips and trips cost UK employers £512 million and are responsible for 1.3 million lost working days every year. The simple act of implementing an effective floor cleaning regime can reduce the risks.

Kärcher says traditional mop and bucket cleaning can leave floors wet, creating slip hazards and encouraging bacteria to spread. It says its scrubber driers provide a safer, more consistent and more efficient alternative. They scrub the floor in a wet process and dry it by recovering the washing solution in a single pass – reducing cleaning man-hours and, crucially, preventing slip hazards.

Suitable for both maintenance and deep-cleaning of small to medium sized floor areas, Kärcher Compact Scrubber Driers offer a thorough clean and are suitable for a wide range of environments.

Until 31st December 2014 the company is offering up to £200 cashback on purchases of compact scrubber driers.
