VACUUMS & SWEEPERS
VAC ATTACK!
Kärcher explains how, when vacuuming in your business feels like an uphill battle, some military precision – in the form of an A, B, C recce – can help you win the war on dust.
For perfect cleaning results on all types of floor covering, let the vac take the strain. Today’s modern solutions extend far beyond the original tub vs. upright dilemma and deliver new levels of productivity whilst consuming fewer resources.
A IS FOR ARSENAL: THE
WEAPONS YOU’RE USING Small arms include low profile machines for easy cleaning under furniture, lightweight backpack vacuums – which can reduce cleaning times by 20% in narrow and cluttered spaces – as well as durable Li-ion battery powered models for long periods of uninterrupted use in environments where sockets are sparse. Hybrid machines are ideal for intermediate cleaning as they can be used cordlessly in public areas on battery power, or plugged into the mains where power is available and trailing cables aren’t an issue.
Multitaskers are the enemy of all types of dirt – whether electric suction brushes to vacuum and brush in one, or wet and dry vacuums designed to collect large volumes of dust, mud and

liquid. The Ap filter on Kärcher’s Wet and Dry vacuums delivers filter cleaning at the push of a button, reducing stoppage time and saving users from a messy job. Available in a range of capacities, from 25 to 75 litres, it’s easy to match your ammunition to the size of your target and the challenges of your environment.
The heavy artillery delivers productivity like never before; whether simply upgrading your upright to a wider head, or adopting the walk- behind approach, units like the CV 66/2 are fast and thorough, and capable of cleaning up to 1,000m2

to large carpeted areas. Models with counter-rotating rollers will reach deep into the pile to remove dirt particles, threads and hair and their mechanical action refresh the pile, leaving carpets looking like new.
B IS FOR BATTALION: THE
TROOPS ON THE GROUND With labour costs increasing, 80% of a cleaning contract’s value is salary – a simple change that saves an operative just 10 minutes per week could save a company of 500 operatives almost £29K a year. When put into this context, it’s clear that upfront machine cost shouldn’t be the sole driver.
Many premises require a variety of different vacuums to tackle different areas. Kärcher’s award-winning step- on CV 60/2 RS can cut down on the need for so many different machines because it automatically adjusts itself to every floor covering from carpet to hard floor and back – without the need to stop. Slim and highly manoeuvrable it provides excellent operator visibility, is as at ease in a corridor as an exhibition hall, and can hop between floors in a standard-sized lift.
