Wide range of solutions

Help with keeping floors clean can be provided by professional contractors who will assess the floor type, age and condition before advising the best method and optimum frequency to clean the floor.

A contractor needs a range of floor cleaning machines to suit all applications. For small area scrubbing, the Nilfisk-Advance Group offers compact scrubber dryers suitable for daily cleaning of small hard floor areas. The SC351, for example, is a compact machine with a rotating deck that can scrub and dry in both forwards and backwards direction.
Large hard floor areas require machines with bigger scrubbing decks and higher productivity levels. Machines available include both pedestrian, stand-on and ride-on models. Larger machines will cost more but labour cost calculations will justify the expenditure over time. Nilfisk’s stand-on scrubber dryer, the SC1500, is an example. It is available in two 51cm models, a disc machine and the new REV random orbital scrubbing model that provides deep scrubbing with no swirl marks.
Burnishing hard floors provides a gloss shine that often appears to expand the floor area. Burnishing machines have a range of pad rotating speeds ranging from 180 revs per minute (RPM). It is important to select the correct speed and frequency for the best long term result. Nilfisk can supply a range of burnishing machines – from day-to-day electric cord models to a large capacity, battery operated ride on burnisher suitable for airports and shopping centres.
