The new machine is packed with useful
features including quick-change scrub brushes that require no additional tools and a quick-view squeegee that enables the operator to make minor adjustments with the minimum of fuss.

optional side scrub available for edge cleaning; and the largest clean water tank in its class (398litres) with a dirty water tank of equal size “We have already received firm orders for the Combi 400 from a number of customers in both the municipal and retail sectors who have been testing out the new machine,” continues Giangolini. “We’re sure it will be among our bestsellers as more businesses and local authorities see it in action and realise the flexibility and performance it offers.”

No More Punctures with a Bunting Magnetic Sweeper TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION ADVERTORIAL
V
isiting industrial sites can always be hazardous and
driving away only to discover that your car tyre has a puncture due to a rogue nail or screw is extremely frustrating. With a Bunting Magnetic Sweeper, punctures and injuries from metal found on roadways, factory floors, and walkways in workshops, warehouses, and loading bays will be a thing of the past.
Magnetic Sweepers are simple permanent magnet devices either used with a handle by the workforce,
or
fixed onto the forks of a forklift truck. The Magnetic Sweeper is moved across the floor and any ferrous metal is attracted up onto the face of the magnet and held.
When used by an operator, the handle of the shaft connected to the main
Permanent Magnet is approximately 750mm off the ground and about 750mm away from the magnetic base, allowing ease of holding whilst walking. Two fixings on the top of the Magnetic Sweeper accept the forks from a forklift truck. Fixing bolts secure the forks safely to the Permanent Magnet. The Magnetic Sweeper is easily driven around larger areas, such as car parks, driveways and loading bays, collecting any damaging ferrous metal detritus present on the floor.
Once collected on the face of the Permanent Magnet, the captured ferrous metal can be easily cleaned from the protective stainless steel casing with a heavy-duty cloth, wooden or plastic scraper, or spatula. Gloves are recommended to be used at all times.

range SlipGrip which is the name for our flagship stair tread covers,” comments general manager Sonya Pilgrim. “Our lines are premium quality and while they aren’t necessarily the cheapest on the market we are confident our products will outlast the competition.” Where applicable everything FibreGrid
manufactures complies with the demands of the DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) and current Building Regulations. Free samples are available.

The height is adjustable, on request, to suit specific applications by approximately 20mm higher or lower. The model MS1250 Magnetic Sweeper is designed for use handheld by an operator or fixed onto the front of a forklift.
