A concrete aid against bacteria in floor scrubbing machine tanks

A study carried out by Comac on the proliferation of bacteria in floor scrubbers enabled the recovery tank to be identified as the environment most subject to bacterial proliferation which, in addition to being a source of unpleasant odors, can also lead to the dispersion of pathogenic agents into the environment. In light of this study, and with the awareness that many Comac floor scrubbers are used to work in sensitive environments such as hospitals, nursing homes and private clinics, a technology has been developed to reduce the bacterial load present in the tanks.

The antibacterial tanks of Comac floor scrubbers are created with a special additive that is designed to keep the bacterial load lower than that present in traditional tanks. This additive is added during the molding phase, and is thus present in the entire structure of the tank, making the antibacterial treatment effective throughout the entire life cycle of the floor scrubbing machine. Indeed, the antibacterial efficacy remains unchanged even in case of minor damage, such as scratches or knocks.

BENEFITS

• Reduces the proliferation of bacteria inside tanks
• Contributes to reducing the formation of unpleasant odors inside the tanks of floor scrubbers, generated by the decay of organic materials
• Reduces the risk of dispersion of pathogenic agents into the surrounding environment
• Increases the well-being of the people who visit or work in the places where the floor scrubber operates
• Makes floor scrubbers safer, as one of the fundamental tools for restoring hygienic and sanitary conditions in healthcare environments
