Attentiveness is not a common quality in our time. This is becoming unpleasantly obvious in (semi)public areas. Chewing-gum in carpets, cigarette-stubs, fast-food residue and used paper tissues that have “accidently fallen out of pockets and purses” contaminate these areas and rob the towns, cities and squares of
their charm.

A situations like this drives people away instead of inviting them to stay and relax. It undermines the very concept of urban space developed by responsible parties. After all, what cities want is to offer their citizens, as well as visitors, a welcoming picture that makes them spend their time, as well as money, in the city.

This makes a good enough reason to start looking for the perfect technological helper in the area of city cleaning. Experts from ZAUGG from Eggiwil have done just that. The result is a unique floor-cleaning technology with the name ZAUGGSteambeast.

The roadworthy vehicle is equipped with a specially-developed cleaning head on the front. It con-tains a rotating brush and using hot lowpressure steam, it removes all kinds of dirt from the floor. A suction bar behind the brush absorbs the discharged dirt and the remaining condensed water.

“Only very little water is needed to use the Steambeast to achieve very high performance on a very large area,” says Rolf Egli who is responsible for communications at ZAUGG in Eggiwil. “The cleaning head and the assembly belonging to it have been built into the carrying vehicle adjusted especially for the Steambeast.

They have a very impressive cleaning effect but, at the same time, are very gentle on the cleaned surface.” Cleaning with the ZAUGGSteambeast installed on the vehicle is not only gentle but, thanks to the thermo-mechanical process, also very quiet.

Depending on how badly soiled the surface is, the cleaned area can also be pre-treated; an analogue handset produced by ZAUGG or a mobile high-pressure cleaner can be attached for cleaning areas that are difficult to access.

The Steambeast can be utilized in a wide range of situations: from facility management to contractors, service providers, large companies, municipalities, airports, public transport, authorities, military, sports facilities, event halls, operation centres or shopping centres, they can all achieve better cleaning results
more easily and cost-effectively thanks to the ZAUGG-Steambeast. ts
