The BD 80/100 W BP Classic is a robust and reliable classic walk-behind machine with traction. It focuses on simplicity, reliability and user-friendly operation. With the hand-guided walk-behind scrubber dryer BD 80/100 W Bp Pack Classic, not only is the powerful battery already on board, but the compatible battery charger is also supplied. In order to overcome even the toughest jobs, highly used components such as disc brush head and squeegee are made from solid die-cast aluminium. The powerful traction drive, which helps to climb slopes effortlessly, the excellent overview, as well as the simple operation, contribute to the high level of user-friendliness. With a working width of 80 centimetres and a large 100 litre tank, this results in an area performance of up to 4800 m² per hour. The contact pressure of the disc brushes can be manually adapted from 40 to 68 kilogrammes for removing intensive soiling.

24V Battery. Coverage: 5100m2/h
£763.00(£915.60 inc VAT)
The Kärcher Puzzi 10/1 is a compact spray extraction cleaner designed for deep cleaning carpets, rugs, and upholstered furniture in commercial environments. It works by simultaneously injecting a detergent solution into the fabric and immediately vacuuming it back out, lifting ingrained dirt and soiling that surface cleaning alone won't reach. It is a straightforward, well-proven piece of cleaning equipment used across hospitality, facilities management, and food service environments where soft furnishings need to be kept presentable.
In a commercial context, the Puzzi 10/1 is well suited to front-of-house areas — dining rooms, function suites, bar seating, and reception spaces — where carpets and upholstery are subject to regular soiling from food, drink, and foot traffic. The simultaneous spray and extraction action means fabrics dry faster than with traditional shampooing methods, reducing downtime between cleaning and reopening the area for use.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Faster drying times compared with traditional carpet shampooing
- Effective on both carpets and fixed or loose upholstery
- Compact and manoeuvrable enough for use in tighter front-of-house spaces
- Separate clean and dirty water tanks to maintain hygiene during use
- Straightforward to empty, rinse, and store after each session
The machine is mains-powered and requires a standard electrical supply, with no specialist installation. At just over 10kg it is light enough to move between rooms without difficulty. It is worth noting that the Puzzi 10/1 is designed for routine maintenance cleaning rather than heavy remedial work — sites with very large carpeted areas or heavily soiled surfaces used daily may find a higher-capacity extraction machine more practical.
This model is a sensible choice for small to medium hospitality and catering operations that need a reliable, easy-to-use extraction cleaner for regular front-of-house maintenance. If you are unsure whether it matches your volume of use or the type of surfaces you need to clean, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£231.00(£277.20 inc VAT)
The Kärcher NT 27/1 is a professional-grade wet and dry vacuum cleaner designed for commercial use. Unlike domestic cylinder vacuums, it is built to handle both liquid spills and dry debris in the same unit, making it a practical choice for commercial kitchens where the two rarely occur separately. The 27-litre capacity means less frequent emptying during a shift, and the construction is intended to withstand the demands of a working kitchen environment rather than occasional use.
In a busy kitchen, spills happen during service — water, cooking liquids, food debris — and the ability to deal with them quickly without switching between different pieces of equipment is a real operational advantage. The NT 27/1 is straightforward to use and straightforward to empty, which matters when it needs to be picked up and put away quickly between tasks.
Practically speaking, it is well suited to:
- Liquid spills on kitchen and back-of-house floors
- Dry debris including flour, crumbs, and food waste
- General cleaning in prep areas, dry stores, and service corridors
- Post-service floor clearance before mopping
At 7.5kg it is light enough to move around a kitchen without effort, and the compact footprint means it stores neatly in a back-of-house cupboard or cleaning station when not in use. There are no particular installation requirements — it runs from a standard mains socket.
This model is a sensible fit for smaller and medium-sized operations: cafés, pub kitchens, small restaurants, and catering prep facilities. Sites with larger floor areas or higher-volume cleaning demands may find a higher-capacity model more appropriate for their throughput.
If you are unsure whether this model suits the scale of your operation, the team is happy to point you in the right direction.
£1,268.00(£1,521.60 inc VAT)
The Kärcher BR 30/4 C is a mains-powered compact scrubber dryer designed for hard floor surfaces in commercial environments. Operating in a similar manner to an upright vacuum cleaner, it washes, scrubs and dries the floor in a single pass, leaving surfaces clean and dry without the need for separate mopping, rinsing or drying stages.
In practical terms, this means floors are returned to a safe, slip-free condition quickly — useful in any food service or hospitality environment where wet floors present a genuine hazard. The single-pass process also reduces the time staff spend on floor cleaning, which matters in kitchens where cleaning windows are short and labour is stretched. The 300mm working width is suited to tighter spaces: galley-style kitchens, prep corridors, serveries, and smaller back-of-house areas where a ride-on or full-width machine would simply not fit.
From an operational standpoint, the BR 30/4 C offers a number of practical advantages:
- Cleans, scrubs and dries in one pass, reducing floor cleaning time significantly
- Fully removable clean and dirty water tanks simplify emptying, refilling and hygiene maintenance
- Roller brushes and squeegees are removable for replacement, keeping running costs manageable
- Eliminates the cross-contamination risks associated with conventional mop-and-bucket cleaning
- Compact footprint allows use and storage in space-restricted environments
Installation requirements are minimal — the unit is mains-powered and requires no fixed plumbing or drainage connection. At under 12kg it can be carried and stored easily. The separate clean and dirty water tanks each hold 4 litres, which covers a reasonable area before emptying is needed, though for larger floor spaces or extended cleaning runs, operators should factor in the time needed to refill and empty between passes.
The BR 30/4 C is well suited to smaller food businesses, cafés, pubs, hotel back-of-house areas, and any site where floor hygiene matters but space is limited. It is a practical starting point for operators moving away from traditional mopping. For sites with larger open floor areas or higher-frequency cleaning requirements, a higher-capacity walk-behind or ride-on machine would be a more appropriate choice.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your floor area and cleaning schedule, our team is happy to talk through the options with you before you order.
£3,405.00(£4,086.00 inc VAT)
The Karcher BR 35/12 C BP is a battery-powered compact scrubber dryer designed for cleaning smaller floor areas where a full-size ride-on or walk-behind machine would be impractical. It scrubs and dries in a single pass, leaving floors clean and largely dry underfoot — useful in environments where wet floors create a slip hazard or where service cannot be paused for extended drying time.
In operational terms, the machine is well suited to areas that see regular foot traffic but present access challenges: narrow service corridors, areas around fixed equipment, storage rooms, or any space where a larger scrubber simply cannot manoeuvre. The roller brush head rotates up to 200 degrees in either direction, which makes it genuinely practical in tight corners and allows the operator to work in reverse without repositioning the machine.
The lithium-ion battery is notably lighter than comparable lead-acid units, which keeps the overall machine weight manageable and improves handling during longer cleaning sessions. It also recharges more quickly, reducing downtime between uses. An eco efficiency mode reduces both energy draw and operating noise, which matters in customer-facing areas or noise-sensitive environments such as hotel back-of-house or late-night cleaning schedules.
- Single-pass scrub and dry reduces slip risk and cleaning time
- Compact footprint and tight turning radius suit cluttered or restricted spaces
- Lower noise output in eco mode suits noise-sensitive environments
- Lightweight lithium-ion battery improves handling and extends run time
- Fast recharge cycle limits operational downtime
This machine is best suited to smaller sites or secondary cleaning zones within larger operations. For sites with extensive open floor areas or heavy daily soiling loads, a higher-capacity walk-behind or ride-on scrubber dryer would likely serve better.
If you are unsure whether this model suits your floor area and cleaning schedule, the team is happy to talk through your requirements before you commit.
£2,708.00(£3,249.60 inc VAT)
The Karcher BRC 30/15 is a walk-behind spray-extraction carpet cleaner designed for commercial venues where carpeted areas are in regular use and need to be returned to service quickly. It works by injecting cleaning solution into the carpet pile while a rotating roller brush agitates and loosens embedded dirt, with the soiled liquid recovered in a single pass. The result is a noticeably deeper clean than surface-only methods, with carpets dry enough to walk on again relatively soon after cleaning — a practical advantage in hospitality and event environments where extended downtime is rarely an option.
In regular use, the BRC 30/15 performs well across small to medium-sized venues with carpeted areas broadly in the region of 200m² to 900m². The combined spray and extraction action means operators can work through floor areas efficiently without repeated passes over the same sections. On significantly larger sites, or where carpets are heavily soiled across a substantial area, cleaning cycle times may become a constraint and a higher-capacity machine may be worth considering.
Practically, the machine offers several operational advantages for venue and facilities teams:
- Rotating roller brush lifts embedded dirt that extraction alone would miss
- Combined spray and recovery in a single pass reduces total cleaning time
- Wheeled chassis allows straightforward movement between rooms and areas
- Simple tank filling and emptying keeps turnaround between sessions low
- Consistent results across larger floor areas without excessive operator effort
No specialist installation is required — the BRC 30/15 connects to a standard power supply and is ready to use as a standalone unit. The machine has some weight to it, so moving between floors via stairs would need planning in advance, but across level floors it handles well.
This model is a practical choice for hotels, conference centres, restaurants with carpeted dining areas, and similar venues running a regular cleaning programme. If you are working out whether this model suits your floor area, cleaning schedule, or site layout, the team is glad to talk it through with you.
£4,105.00(£4,926.00 inc VAT)
The Karcher SGV 8/5 is a combined steam cleaner and vacuum unit built for heavy-duty cleaning in commercial environments. It generates steam at 8 bar pressure, which is sufficient to break down baked-on grease, carbonised residue, and ingrained dirt across a wide range of surfaces. The integrated vacuum function lifts loosened debris and moisture in the same pass, leaving surfaces dry and ready to use without additional mopping or wiping.
In a working commercial kitchen, grease builds quickly on extraction canopies, tiled walls, flooring, and the surfaces behind and beneath equipment. The SGV 8/5 handles these areas effectively without relying on chemical degreasers — a meaningful advantage in food preparation environments where chemical residue carries genuine hygiene risk. Steam at this pressure also reduces bacterial load on contact surfaces, which supports compliance in kitchens where hygiene standards are closely monitored.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages:
- Chemical-free cleaning reduces product costs and removes chemical handling risks
- Combined steam and vacuum action cuts cleaning time versus multi-stage methods
- Wheeled base allows straightforward movement around the kitchen or between areas
- Accessible front-mounted controls keep operator training requirements low
- Included attachment set covers a range of surface types and access points
At 54.2kg, this is a substantial piece of equipment and will need careful handling during positioning and transport between sites. It is not a lightweight portable unit, and it is best suited to sites where it will be deployed regularly enough to justify both its size and its investment. Operators should also account for refill time on larger cleaning tasks, as sustained deep-clean sessions will require pausing to replenish the water supply.
The SGV 8/5 is well suited to commercial kitchens, food production facilities, contract catering operations, and similar environments where frequent deep cleaning is required and chemical use needs to be kept to a minimum. Sites with lighter or less frequent cleaning demands may find a smaller steam cleaner more appropriate, while very large facilities with extensive areas to cover may benefit from a higher-output machine.
If you would like to talk through whether this unit is the right fit for your site and cleaning regime, the team at Advantage are glad to help before you make a decision.
£7,884.00(£9,460.80 inc VAT)
The Karcher BD 50/70 R Bp is a battery-powered ride-on scrubber dryer built for cleaning large hard floor areas efficiently and consistently. Unlike conventional mopping, it scrubs and dries in a single pass, leaving floors clean and dry without the residual slip hazard that wet mopping creates. The 70-litre water tank allows extended cleaning runs before the machine needs to return to a filling point, making it practical for sites where downtime between runs needs to be kept to a minimum.
In busy commercial environments — production kitchens, food processing facilities, large canteens, hospital corridors, and distribution centres — floor cleaning is a recurring, time-sensitive task. The ride-on format allows a single operator to cover significant floor area without the fatigue that walk-behind machines accumulate over long or repeated runs. Battery operation removes the trailing cable hazard that makes corded machines impractical across open floor plans, and a portable charging arrangement provides flexibility where fixed charging infrastructure is not yet in place.
Practical advantages for day-to-day operation include:
- Single-pass scrub and dry reduces total floor cleaning time on large sites
- Battery power suits open-plan environments where trailing cables create trip or slip hazards
- Portable charging base station can be brought to the machine where fixed points are not practical
- Compact footprint relative to tank capacity assists multi-floor sites with smaller service lifts
- Large tanks drain and refill straightforwardly without specialist tools or fittings
At 202kg this is a substantial machine, and a few practical points are worth considering before purchase. Floor load-bearing capacity, storage space, and a dedicated charging area all need to be factored in. Access routes, doorways, and any lift dimensions should be checked against the machine's footprint for the specific site. Battery runtime should also be assessed against the floor area to be covered per shift — high-frequency cleaning cycles or very large sites may call for a managed charging schedule or a second battery pack.
The BD 50/70 R Bp is well suited to medium-to-large commercial sites where floor cleaning is a daily or high-frequency requirement and walk-behind machines would be too slow or too physically demanding for the area involved. Sites with more confined layouts or lower cleaning volumes may find a walk-behind scrubber more appropriate, while very large or intensive operations may benefit from a higher-capacity model.
If you would like to talk through whether this machine is the right match for your site's floor area, surface type, or cleaning schedule, the team is glad to help you work through the options.
£3,804.00(£4,564.80 inc VAT)
The Kärcher BD 50/50 is a battery-powered walk-behind scrubber dryer designed to clean and dry hard floors in a single pass. A disc brush scrubs the surface while a v-shaped squeegee collects the soiled water behind, leaving the floor clean and dry without a separate mopping or drying stage. The 50-litre clean water tank supports extended runs before requiring a refill, making it practical for operations where cleaning needs to happen quickly and with minimal interruption.
In commercial environments — large kitchens, food production areas, hotel back-of-house, or healthcare facilities — floor hygiene is a daily requirement rather than a periodic task. The cordless design removes the need to manage trailing cables across open floor areas or around fixed equipment, which makes coverage more straightforward and reduces the risk of trips or interruptions mid-clean. Controls are colour-coded and kept simple, so most operators can work confidently with the machine after minimal instruction.
Key operational advantages include:
- Single-pass scrub and dry reduces overall floor cleaning time
- Battery operation gives free movement across open areas without cable routing
- Simple, colour-coded controls minimise training time and operator error
- Large clean water tank supports longer cleaning runs between refills
- Leaves floors safe underfoot immediately after cleaning
At 145.6kg, the BD 50/50 is a substantial machine. It needs a dedicated storage space with a suitable charging point nearby, and the area it is stored in should be accessible enough to move it in and out without difficulty. It is a walk-behind format, which suits most mid-to-large sites but may feel demanding over very long uninterrupted cleaning sessions. For tighter or more cluttered environments, a smaller compact scrubber dryer is likely more practical. For very large sites or operations with significantly higher daily cleaning demands, a ride-on machine may be worth considering.
The BD 50/50 is well suited to operations that clean mid-to-large floor areas on a daily basis and have moved beyond what manual mopping can realistically achieve. It is commonly used in large commercial kitchens, food production facilities, hotel and leisure venues, and institutional settings where consistent floor hygiene is a non-negotiable part of daily operations.
If you are working out whether this model fits your site layout, cleaning frequency, or storage setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£31.84(£38.21 inc VAT)
Pack quantity: 10. Great value vacuum cleaner bags to use with Karcher Upright Vacuum Cleaner.
£306.00(£367.20 inc VAT)
The Karcher NT48/1 is a drum-style wet and dry vacuum designed for professional use in commercial environments. It handles both liquid spills and dry debris in a single pass, which reduces the need for separate cleaning equipment and keeps turnaround times manageable during end-of-service cleans or mid-shift spillages.
In a working kitchen, the 48-litre drum capacity means the unit can cover a significant clean-up job without needing to be emptied partway through. A rear drainage hose allows collected liquid to be discharged cleanly without lifting or tipping the drum — a practical detail that matters when the drum is carrying a meaningful volume of water.
For kitchen and facilities teams, the day-to-day advantages tend to centre on simplicity and reliability:
- Single machine handles wet spills and dry debris, reducing equipment clutter
- Large drum capacity suits extended cleans without frequent interruptions
- Rear drainage hose removes the need to manually tip or carry liquid waste
- Robust Karcher construction holds up well under regular daily use
- Manageable size and weight for a single operator to position and move
It is worth being clear about what this unit is. It is a corded, drum-style vacuum that requires a mains power supply and a reasonable amount of floor space to work alongside. At 10kg it is not heavy, but it is not a backpack or cordless model, so it suits kitchens with a defined cleaning routine rather than operations that need to move equipment rapidly across multiple floors or areas.
This model is a practical fit for restaurants, cafés, contract catering kitchens, schools, and care facility kitchens where a dependable general-purpose wet and dry vacuum is needed on a daily basis. For very large sites or continuous-use environments where higher capacity or more frequent deployment is required, a heavier-duty model may be worth considering.
If you would like to talk through whether this capacity suits your site, our team is glad to help.
£425.00(£510.00 inc VAT)
The Kärcher CV 30/1 is a single-motor upright vacuum cleaner designed for routine floor cleaning in commercial hospitality environments. A single motor drives both the suction fan and the roller brush, which keeps the unit straightforward to operate and simple for staff to maintain without specialist knowledge.
Where it earns its place is on carpeted surfaces. The roller brush actively lifts carpet pile rather than relying purely on airflow, which makes a practical difference in dining rooms, hotel corridors, function suites, and reception areas where surface appearance matters. Brush height adjustment allows the unit to be set correctly for different pile depths — getting this right improves cleaning results and reduces unnecessary wear on the brush over time. The lay-flat design means staff can clean beneath low tables and seating without moving furniture, which keeps front-of-house disruption to a minimum during pre-service preparation.
Practical operational advantages worth noting:
- Lay-flat profile allows cleaning under low furniture without repositioning it
- Detachable suction tube included for upholstery and awkward areas
- Upholstery and crevice tools supplied as standard
- Brush height adjustment suits varying carpet pile depths
At 8.4kg it is a manageable unit for most housekeeping staff, though it is worth confirming that your team is comfortable with upright-style vacuums, particularly on sites where cleaning staff rotate regularly.
This model is well suited to smaller and medium-sized hospitality venues with carpeted front-of-house areas — restaurants, cafés, boutique hotels, and similar premises. It is not designed for heavy industrial environments or large-scale contract cleaning operations. Sites with significantly higher cleaning demands or hard floors as the primary surface may find a heavier-duty model from the range more appropriate.
If you are weighing this up against other options or want to check it fits your site's layout and cleaning routine, the team is happy to help you think it through.
