A mop spreads dirty water across the floor and leaves it wet. A scrubber removes the dirt and the water together.

## Floors that are actually clean

Brush pressure lifts ground-in dirt, oil and residue that a mop slides over, and the recovery tank takes it away instead of leaving it behind.

## Dry and safe almost straight away

Because the squeegee picks up the water as it goes, floors can be walked on soon after cleaning. That cuts slip risk and lets you clean during trading or operating hours.

## Less water and chemical

Controlled solution flow uses only what the floor needs. Some machines recycle or dose chemical automatically for even lower use.

## Faster, more consistent cleaning

—One operator covers far more floor than with mops and buckets.

—The same result every shift, regardless of who's cleaning.

—Less physical strain than mopping.
