Cleaning is such a labor-intensive task, it’s a huge benefit to have machines that help improve the quality of cleaning as well as productivity. Auto scrubbers have helped cut down on labor time by assisting janitors with mopping work that, by hand, would take many hours. A facility’s needs and square footage must be taken into account when determining which auto scrubber is best, and machines are offered in ride-on or walk-behind options. Walk-behind machines allow for more worker control, but can result in fatigue for the operator. A newer product to the market is unmanned, robotic floor machines that require little operator intervention. These technologically advanced vacuums, sweepers and scrubbers give a new meaning to “automatic.”
