Challenges Facing Supermarkets

Large flow of people

Supermarkets, as places with high foot traffic especially during prosperous periods, it may have hundreds or even thousands of people entering and leaving every hour. The movement of a large number of customers will carry various small particles such as dust and soil on the soles of the shoes, quickly covering the ground.  In addition, customers may also spill food debris, drinks, and other stains during the shopping process. If these stains are not cleaned in time, they will breed bacteria and affect the environment.

Many Types of Garbage

The fresh food area is one of the most complex areas of supermarket pollution. Due to the need for freshness preservation of aquatic products and vegetables, they are usually sprayed with water and causing the ground to remain moist for a long time. Therefore, it can easily breed microorganisms such as moss. Secondly, long-term immersion of the ground in water stains may also cause damage to the ground material. The main pollutants in the food area are food oil stains and sauces. These oil stains not only make the ground sticky, but also affect customers' walking experience and damage the hygiene environment of the supermarket.

Application of Industrial Floor Scrubber Machine

Efficient Cleaning Efficiency

The cleaning efficiency of industrial floor scrubbers is much higher than manual cleaning. Their cleaning efficiency can reach 3000-8000㎡/hour, which are several times that of manual cleaning. For example, in a 10000 square meter supermarket, using an industrial floor scrubber machine can complete the floor cleaning work in just 1-2 hours. It can save a lot of time and manpower.

Strong Deep Cleaning Ability

Industrial floor scrubber dryer has powerful scrubbing and water absorption functions, which can deeply clean floor crevices and corners. For common oil stains on the ground, the floor scrubber can thoroughly remove the stains through high-pressure water spray and strong friction of the brush disc. At the same time, the suction scraper design of the floor scrubber can tightly adhere to the ground, ensuring that sewage and garbage are completely sucked away without residue.

Suitable for Various Types of Ground Use

There are various types of flooring materials in supermarkets including tiles, marble and epoxy flooring. Industrial floor scrubber machine can adjust cleaning parameters according to different floor materials. In addition, the suction scraper of the floor scrubber usually has an adjustable function. It not only can adapt to the drainage characteristics of different floor materials, but also can assure the suction effect is not affected.

Application of Floor Sweeper Machine

Efficient Cleaning

The cleaning efficiency of industrial floor sweepers can reach 5000-20000㎡/h. The design of its edge brush and roller brush can effectively collect various types of garbage on the ground, whether it is large food debris, paper, or small dust, they can be easily cleaned.

Intelligent

Most modern floor sweepers use advanced sensor technology, such as laser radar and infrared sensors. It can achieve intelligent obstacle avoidance and path planning functions. Even in the complex environment of supermarkets, floor sweeper machine can accurately identify shelves, obstacles, and walls, automatically plan the optimal cleaning path, and avoid collisions and omissions.

Low Noise Operation

Compared with traditional cleaning methods, the noise level of a sweeping machine during operation is relatively low, generally between 50-60 decibels. This low-noise advantage is more prominent, avoiding the harsh sound generated by the friction between the broom and the ground, creating a quieter and more comfortable shopping environment for customers.

Application Strategies of Industrial Floor Scrubbers and Sweepers

Collaborative Cleaning Mode in Different Time Periods

Pre Business Cleaning: After closing the store, use an industrial floor scrubber to deeply scrub the floor and use a specialized cleaning agent to remove overnight stains. The suction function of the floor scrubber ensures rapid drying of the floor without affecting the next day's business.

Dynamic Cleaning during Business Hours: Start the sweeping machine during business hours to clean up debris, dust, and other garbage dropped by customers in real time, avoiding the accumulation of stains. The low noise characteristics of the sweeping machine allow it to operate continuously without disturbing customers, maintaining a clean floor.
