Hybrid Mop-Vacuums

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Vax Floormate Cordless Hard Floor Cleaner Replaces a Mop and Bucket

— May 6, 2015 — Art & Design
As a hard floor cleaner that's equipped to scrub, wash and dry floors, the Vax Floormate Cordless delivers more convenience than just freeing homeowners from tangles of cords. The home cleaning system is designed to replace the use of a steam mop with removable pads, or a low-tech mop and bucket, for a deeper clean that's ensures dirty water won't be circulated back into the machine.

Like a carpet cleaner, the Vax Floormare Cordless uses a mixture of water and detergent to clean and scrub with rotating brushes. Old water is sucked back up into the machine and kept separate from the internal clean water tank. By gently buffing floors with water that is actually clean, homes are truly left more hygienic as a result.
Trend Themes
1. Hybrid Mop-vacuum Cleaners - The rise of hybrid mop-vacuum cleaners like Vax Floormate Cordless is disrupting the traditional cleaning methods.
2. Wireless Hard Floor Cleaners - Wireless hard floor cleaners with features like rotating brushes and separate dirty water tanks are offering more cleaning convenience for homeowners.
3. Hygienic Cleaning Systems - Hygienic cleaning systems that ensure clean water is buffed onto floors are becoming more popular among homeowners.
Industry Implications
1. Home Cleaning Appliances - The home cleaning appliances industry can leverage the opportunity to introduce more advanced and convenient cleaning systems.
2. Floor Cleaning Products - The floor cleaning products industry can consider incorporating wireless features and hygienic features into their offerings.
3. Cleaning Services - Cleaning service providers can innovate by adopting more advanced cleaning technologies and systems to offer their clients more efficient and effective cleaning services.
