Pacvac Backpack Cleaning: The Ultimate in Convenience

Pacvac is a well-known Australian brand that has been supplying the world with back pack vacuum cleaners since the 1970s. Pacvac specialises solely in back pack cleaners, which has made it a market leader.

‘Backpack’ cleaning is fast becoming the ergonomic and health-and-safety friendly way to go about commercial cleaning, and is the ultimate in convenience for applications such as aircraft cleaning. Its lightweight structure, and the fact there is a high level of power and suction without the need to lug about a cumbersome cylinder, has made Pacvac one of the most sought-after machines. 

 

Pacvac SuperPro 700

 

In fact, throughout Australia and South Africa, back pack vacuuming can be considered as everyday as cylinder vacuuming or perhaps nowadays, cordless cleaning, is in the UK.  

Pacvac has been designed to fit the user in the most comfortable way possible. It has an adjustable harness to guarantee a perfect fit. Courtesy of the clever design of the hose and wand, there is no pressure put on the wrists, and excellent posture can also be maintained. There is a cordless and corded version to suit varying needs and a full tool kit, spare filter bag and five paper bags are included with each purchase.

Aircraft Cleaning Perfection

In terms of aircraft cleaning, users praise Pacvac for the fact there is no more pulling a cleaner around seats and trying to squeeze down aisles in an attempt to give the aircraft a thorough clean. The whole process becomes simple and effortless. 

The Pacvac SuperPro 700 trans model is the aircraft specification. Its Hypercone HEPA filter system allows full suction to be maintained whilst the bag fills. This machine is specifically aircraft specification, designed to run on an aircraft power supply of 110v 400hz.

Pacvac is also ideal for general office or factory settings where it is necessary to get into awkward to reach areas such as narrow corridors, staircases and obstacles. If you are travelling between floors, either via stairways or lifts, or have extensive spaces to cover, the Pacvac really does come into its own. With no need to lift or roll the cleaner around challenging spaces, the Pacvac provides the ultimate solution.

Industry Specials: Specialist Vacuum Cleaners for Specialist Needs

Because commercial environments vary so extensively, it stands to reason that the cleaning requirements in those different environments are going to vary too. Precisely why choosing a commercial vacuum cleaner that suits particular surroundings and situations is essential.

The good news is there are a number of specialised vacuum cleaners on the market that are custom designed to suit a variety of environments. 

The Engineer’s Vacuum Cleaner

The method by which coolant and swarf is collected in an engineering environment has to be safe and efficient. Thanks to the Numatic Engineering Separator Vacuum Cleaner, this has been made possible.

These high performance, specialist commercial vacuum cleaners are designed to catch particles of a certain size in a mesh basket, whilst allowing liquid coolants to pass through freely into the bottom tank ready to be discharged via the incorporated dump hose.

Numatic Engineering Separator Vacuum Cleaner

These machines are constructed from lightweight but exceptionally robust Structofoam material and powered by two high performance Twinflo motors. The stainless steel mesh basket catches particles larger than 1mm, whilst coolants pass through into the 70 litre bottom tank. Hose sizes from 76mm down to 32mm can be used in conjunction with this cleaner. 

The Workshop Vacuum Cleaner

Numatic also produces a range of workshop utility vacuum cleaners.

These machines feature a 10 metre plugged cable system and a powerful 1200 or 2400 watt motor option. All models, which include 110 volt and 240 single motor options, as well as 110 volt and 240 volt twin motor options, are constructed from metal with a fully mobile chassis. Further options are presented courtesy of a choice of 51mm or 100mm cyclonic side entry.

Numatic Workshop Utility Cleaner

The 35 litre capacity makes this an ideal machine for workshop use, and the two or three tier filtration package and HEPA-FLO dust bags, supplied with the cleaner, add to its efficiency. A full accessory package is also supplied with each machine and there’s a two year warranty to take advantage of.

Numatic also manufactures a range of commercial cleaning supplies especially designed for workshops and environments prone to fine dust. 

The Industrial Vacuum Cleaner

For boiler cleaning, floor, cleaning, machine maintenance, metalworking dust or debris clearance and any other category of high level cleaning, the Numatic Industrial Vacuum Cleaner offers the ideal solution.

A Guide to Vacuum Sweepers for Commercial Use

Sometimes there are situations where you need a clean-up solution that is flexible, fast and simple.

In an emergency, where health and safety is of paramount importance, the last thing you want to be doing is unshackling the big-gun commercial vacuum cleaner. Where time is of the essence, you need a quick solution that will resolve the issue far more efficiently than a broom and dustpan.

Thankfully there is a solution: the commercial vacuum sweeper. These are machines that are custom designed for maximum efficiency and convenience. Most are battery operated, although there are mains options. They literally allow you to ‘grab it and go’, making them perfect for situations where a quick clean-up is vital. Vacuum sweepers are also ideal for interim cleaning.

Suggested Vacuum Sweeper Models

There are a number of vacuum sweeper models that are suitable for commercial use.

The Lindhaus LS38 Battery Vacuum Sweeper is available in both battery and mains power options, both ideal for larger areas with different floor surfaces and for small or large debris. The battery powered model offers a 40 minute run on carpets and 50 minutes on hard floors based on a 90 minute charge. The twin force, 2x contra-rotating, 2,000rpm bush rollers deliver maximum sweep and the adjustable front flap collects debris up to 10mm. There’s an optional HEPA filter and a 6-stage filtration level for the ultimate in pick-up power and allergen-busting benefits.

The Sweeper KM 35/5 C is a battery powered micro sweeper, perfect for maintenance and quick cleans. The powerful lithium-ion battery provides for straightforward cleaning without the frustration of cumbersome cables and the foot operated on-off switch offers total convenience.

The Truvox VWAV Valet Wide Area Vacuum delivers high productivity with the ability to vacuum large carpeted areas. The extensive 70cm cleaning path offers two and a half times the coverage of a typical upright or tub vacuum and the straight line operation and twin 1,000 watt vacuum motors combine to boost efficiency. The 1800 rpm brush gets right into the pile to loosen deeply embedded dirt and revive the fibres whilst the four-stage clean-air filtration gets rid of dust particles right down to 0.3 microns. The handle is ergonomically designed with adjustable height, cushioned grips and dead man’s safety switch and the brush can be adjusted into five different positions.

Four Reasons why Steam Cleaning Makes an Astute Commercial Choice

Sometimes, traditional cleaning methods just aren’t sufficient for certain purposes. Chemicals can’t always be used, and where infection control is necessary, there are only certain cleaning methods that fit the bill, particularly where food preparation and healthcare are concerned.

MRSA and other superbugs are a major concern and the solution preferred by the NHS and private healthcare providers for the most part tends to be steam cleaning. This would suggest that steam cleaning offers wider benefits. Here we look at the top four reasons behind these benefits. 

Reason 1: It reaches the parts other cleaning can’t reach

Steam kills germs, dissolves grease and sanitises surfaces. It infiltrates nooks, crannies, crevices and cracks, in other words, all the places traditional cleaning methods cannot reach. Steam cleaning attacks dust mites, germs, mould and fungus. It’s great on glass and mirrors where it leaves a streak-free finish, and perfect for cleansing fridges, freezers, work surfaces, filters and bins. 

Reason 2: It’s detergent free

Detergents don’t usually feature with steam cleaning, although it is possible to use them in certain settings. Where the use of detergents is not desirable, maybe where an environmentally friendly cleaning solution is preferred, the steam alone will deliver adequate cleaning and sanitisation power. In other words, steam cleaning can provide the ideal eco-friendly option. 

Reason 3: Quick-drying

Because steam evaporates rapidly, surfaces dry a lot quicker than they do with water. This makes for a far more efficient cleaning process. It also reduces water consumption and cuts labour costs. 

Reason 4: Highly Effective

Steam cleaning is effective in removing stubborn substances, for example glue, chewing gum and wax. It is suitable for most surfaces other than certain fabrics such as silk and velour, paper and cardboard and anything covered in water-based paint, but always remember to test an inconspicuous area before proceeding. 

Choosing a Steam Cleaner

There are various commercial steam cleaners on the market such as the Coccinella Commercial Steam Cleaner, one of the most popular models we sell. It works on kitchen and work surface grease, cooking equipment and hotplates and is ideal for sanitising waste receptacles, toilets, showers and changing rooms. In addition, this model will effectively clean glass mirrors; it powers through gum and is a powerful stain remover for upholstery and carpets.

Lindhaus: A Trusted Name in Commercial Cleaning Machines

The Lindhaus brand was founded during the 1980s in Italy by a company specialising in the design and manufacture of domestic and commercial cleaning machines.

The Lindhaus range is particularly popular within the commercial sector, with products such as powerful twin motor upright vacuums; convenient battery operated vacuum sweepers, hard floor scrubber dryers and the hybrid wide area vacuum.

Lindhaus is well known as one of the best brands when it comes to performance and efficiency, and is renowned for delivering exceptional quality at competitive prices. Selected as the supplier of choice for numerous government buildings, there is even a rumour that there’s a Lindhaus in the Whitehouse!

The sister company of Lindhaus, Rotafil, has been manufacturing electric motors and winding machines as far back as the 1960s. Naturally, all Lindhaus cleaning machines are powered by Rotafil motors, making them incredibly robust and effective.

The Lindhaus range of upright vacuum cleaners offers a variety of power level options. The twin motor machines are quiet in operation yet incredibly powerful with one motor independently driving the brush roller at 5,000 rpm and the second focusing solely on sucking up debris into the 4 litre paper bag. All offer an extendible on board hose and extension wand as standard together with a detachable head which makes the machine easy to clear in case of blockage. There’s also a replaceable brush roll barrel and optional HEPA or carbon active filters.

The Lindhaus scrubber dryer is also a twin motor machine, perfect for smaller areas and ideal for dealing with spillages and cleaning requirements in areas where floors simply cannot be left anything other than safely dry. The machine cleans right up to the edge and can also be used for window cleaning and as a wet pick-up vacuum. It’s also easy to store.

The Lindhaus hybrid wide area vacuum is a lightweight, easy to use cleaner that can be used either on battery power or via a cable. Perfect for all types of carpet, the machine’s wide body frame rotation makes it ideal for easy access under tables. There’s a 16 litre debris capacity; an on board charger and a full set of on board tools.

With Lindhaus, there really is something to suit every commercial need. For more information and tailored advice, and to arrange your free commercial demonstration of your chosen Lindhaus machine, get in touch with Anderson Trade.
