Industrial cleaning equipment is a term that is commonly used to describe a broad range of machinery and tools designed to aid in the cleaning of commercial and industrial environments. Examples of such workplaces include but are not limited to, factories, warehouses, supermarkets, shopping centres, education facilities, hospitals, laboratories, leisure centres, hotels, conference centres, transport hubs, and more. Essentially it is the tools required to aid in the cleaning of any large, usually high traffic, areas.
This broad term encompasses such a wide range of tools, accessories, equipment, and machinery that it is broken down into a couple of groups, as follows:
Janitorial Supplies: Everything from mops and buckets through to dolly trollies, cleaning pads, spray bottles, dispensers and the like.
Cleaning Machines: Equipment to aid with the cleaning process such as steamers, vacuum cleaners, buffers and polishers, scrubber dryers and sweepers.
The cleaning machine segment of Industrial Cleaning Equipment is in itself very large and so is further split, as follows:
Floorcare: Industrial Equipment and machines to aid in the cleaning of floors.
General Cleaning: Industrial Equipment and machines to aid in general cleaning of a variety of surfaces and equipment.
Sharpe Maintenance Services (SMS), supply, service, and repair both types of Industrial Cleaning Equipment, with an emphasis on floorcare in particular scrubber dryers, sweepers, buffers and vacuums, however we have an extensive range of steam cleaners, pressure washers and sanitizers for equipment cleaning also. Scrubber dryers are probably one of the most fundamental pieces of cleaning equipment many businesses require in order to scrub and clean large hard floor areas fast such as school sports halls or lunch areas as well as much larger shopping centres or factory/manufacturing units.
Another key component of the industrial cleaning equipment portfolio is floor sweepers designed to make the recovery of debris across large areas both inside and outside quick and efficient and are popular in car parks, warehouses and the like. Smaller hard floor areas such as changing rooms, reception areas and corridors can sometimes benefit from a single disc buffer or polisher, due to their smaller size. When combined with different pads and brush speeds, these single disc machines can scrub, buff and shine a wide range of floor surfaces, including carpets in some cases.
Equipment cleaning is also an essential part of many business processes so our industrial cleaning equipment range includes high-performance steam cleaners for use in bakeries to clean down kitchen equipment and ovens as well as care homes and hospitals to hygienically clean upholstery and furnishings, plus many more applications where high temperature cleaning is a must. Not forgetting high-pressure cleaning systems as well, that are often required in industries such as farming, transport, and building for which we have a selection of commercial and industrial pressure washers.
As you can see, the term Industrial Cleaning Equipment covers products far and wide associated with achieving cleaning results of not only industrial but also commercial areas and has many segments that drill down into specific types of cleaning equipment or machinery.
