Cleaning
- Physical removal of germs, dirt or impurities from the surface. All of our floor scrubbers and sweepers clean floors mechanically by brush engagement.
- Our scrubbers introduce water to encapsulate and capture through the squeegee and later drained in approved drain locations ensuring better facility cleanliness.
Our sweepers capture particulates in the hopper assembly for later dumping.
Sanitizing
Using a chemical product or device to reduce the number of germs on a surface. The level must be considered safe by public health standards. Sanitizing kills most germs but not all (99.99% / ~30 sec).

Disinfecting
