Floor Cleaning Innovations from Tennant
10 May 2007
Recently, Tennant started a challenging project aimed at upgrading the scrubber product range. The new T-series range was born with a complete assortment of machines able to meet and satisfy any specific customer need among others in airport floor cleaning.
The T3, T5, T7, the new T15 and the recently introduced T20 are the products that Tennant is now offering in order to deliver a high level of quality, performance and reliability. Each of these machines is designed around Tennant FaST®-technology, based on a unique revolutionary foam technology: an engineered self collapsing foam system reduces cleaning job time by up to 30% and saves costs, water and detergent up to 70%.
The FaST foam scrubbing system is the best way to meet the highest floor cleaning standards. That’s because FaST foam cleans so well it not only attracts and removes soil, it even removes old, slippery detergent residue, increasing floor traction. Only FaST creates cleaner, safer floors that help reduce the risk of slip-and-fall accidents.
The T-series finds applications in airport facilities for both indoor and outdoor cleaning, the choice of machine depending on the type of area – open or confined -, the degree of dirt or the required ruggedness for harsher conditions. The range offers features such as intuitive controls, unmatched manoeuvrability and long-lasting battery packs, as well as cleanable tanks and one-touch controls. At its introduction, the T3 as well as the T5 walk-behind scrubbers set a new standard in corporate hygiene.
The T7 ride-on scrubber-dryer also offers increased manoeuvrability and simple controls to boost productivity. It guarantees superb cleaning and excellent water pick-up while considerably reducing operator fatigue. The T7 is also available with disc or cylindrical scrub head.
To complete the T-series, Tennant is now launching the T15, a mid-size ride-on scrubber-dryer versatile enough to scrub both open areas and tight spots. Simplified cleaning with one-button scrubbing and impressive manoeuvrability, leave floors clean, dry and spotless. Brush pressure is maintained electronically, even on irregular surfaces. A powerful vacuum and squeegee system gives superior water pick-up on smooth surfaces, over cracks or during sharp turns. Customers can choose disc or cylindrical brushes, conventional or FaST scrubbing systems.
The T20 ride-on scrubber-dryer comes from a heritage of exceptional engineering: an industrial scrubber for harshest environments with aggressive scrubbing and reduced costs without compromising safety or performance. Superior Tennant engineering innovations in hydraulic technology, tank clean-out, and engine access reduce maintenance costs and unproductive downtime. Longer run times, easy brush changes, and quick recovery tank draining make the T20 an extremely reliable machine.
Tennant continues to innovate and expand the product and services range to comply with customer expectations. These innovations are not limited to technical functions and features, but focus equally on environmentally friendly technologies such as FaST®, ES® (extended scrubbing with water recycling), ReadySpace® (rapid drying carpet technology), innovations in engine emissions and others.
