Heavy-Duty Industrial Floor Cleaner: What Makes a Floor Scrubber Industrial-Grade?

Industrial-Grade Cleaning Is About the Whole Operating System

Cleaning width, brush pressure, tank capacity, runtime, traction and parts support all affect whether a floor scrubber fits a demanding commercial route.

Choose the Brush and Chemical for the Floor

Industrial does not mean “maximum aggression.” Concrete, epoxy, tile and sealed finishes require different brushes, pads and detergents. Follow the flooring manufacturer’s maintenance requirements and test sensitive surfaces.

Battery, Warranty and Support

Current Aiolith AF-series lithium batteries are specified at 5,000+ charge cycles. Current warranty terms are 1 year for machine/motor coverage and 3 years for the lithium battery. Human technical support provides an initial response within one business day.

Bottom Line

Choose the machine that fits the cleaning route and can be supported reliably over time.
