Canteen Floor Cleaning Demo at Teagle Farm Machinery – Truro
Workplace canteens often have tough non-slip linoleum installed to prevent slips and trips, however abrasive surfaces such as these can be difficult to keep clean as dirt can easily become trapped making Canteen Floor Cleaning a tricky problem to crack.
This was exactly the problem experiences by Teale Farm Machinery who invited us down to their manufacturing facility in Truro to demonstrate a machine that would successfully keep their Altro non-slip safety floor clean.
The company has seen many other companies come and go during its 75-year history and today its range of Tomahawk livestock Feeder Bedders lead the market and form the cornerstone of a comprehensive range of machinery offered to Livestock and Arable farmers and Horticultural growers worldwide. Tom would be proud to know that from his humble beginnings, the company that he founded now ship to 35 countries, employing over 150 people at its plant in Truro.
The first machine was a Viper AS380C Mains Operated Scrubber Dryer. This machine dries going forwards only. The other machine was a Karcher B40/10C, also Mains Powered, Scrubber Dryer which scrubs and dries going forwards and in reverse.
Working on a small area of the canteen floor, we found that the Viper machine did not clean the floor quite as well as the Karcher. This was due to the fact that the Karcher has two cylindrical brushes which applied more pressure than the Viper machine which was fitted with a floor pad.
