Vacuum Cleaners

These are the manufacturer-matched replacement bags for Kärcher upright vacuum cleaners, supplied in packs of ten. Using the correct bag for your machine keeps suction performance consistent and helps the motor run without unnecessary strain — something that matters when vacuuming is a daily task rather than an occasional one.

In a commercial cleaning routine, bags that are changed regularly make a genuine difference to how effectively the machine picks up debris, dust, and dry spillages. An overfull or poorly fitting bag reduces airflow, which in turn reduces suction and puts more wear on the motor over time. Keeping a stock of the correct bags on hand means there is no temptation to run the machine longer than you should between changes.

• Compatible with Kärcher upright vacuum cleaners
• Supplied in packs of ten for ongoing stock management
• Correct fit maintains suction and protects the motor
• Suitable for daily commercial cleaning environments
• Straightforward to change, with no tools required

These bags are most practical for sites that already operate Kärcher upright vacuums and want to keep a reliable supply of the right consumables. If you are unsure whether these are the correct bags for your specific model, or if you are looking at vacuum cleaners for a new site, feel free to get in touch and we can point you in the right direction.

The Numatic PSP240-B2 is a mains-powered professional vacuum cleaner designed for regular commercial use. It draws on Numatic's established reputation in the professional cleaning sector and is built around the same practical engineering principles found across their commercial range. The machine uses HepaFlo dust bags combined with a triple-layer filtration system, which keeps secondary filters cleaner for longer and ensures collected debris is fully contained for hygienic, straightforward disposal.

In a commercial environment — restaurant dining areas, hotel corridors, back-of-house spaces, or café floors — this type of machine is typically run across multiple sessions daily. The triple filtration approach helps maintain consistent suction performance as filters load up, which matters when cleaning has to happen quickly between service periods and there is no time to deal with a machine that has lost performance.

From an operational standpoint, a few features are worth noting:

• HepaFlo bags fully contain dust, reducing airborne particles during bag changes
• Triple-layer filtration extends secondary filter service intervals
• Long power cable allows a wide cleaning range from a single socket
• Nuplug system allows cable replacement on-site without an electrician
• Large rear wheels and front castors aid movement across mixed floor surfaces

The Nuplug cable system deserves particular mention for commercial sites. Cables on machines used daily are vulnerable to wear and accidental damage, and being able to replace the cable without a call-out reduces both downtime and maintenance costs. The machine is supplied complete with the AH1 accessory kit, which covers standard floor and upholstery cleaning tasks without requiring additional purchases.

This model is well suited to small to medium commercial premises — cafés, restaurants, small hotels, and office environments — where a reliable, low-maintenance vacuum is needed for daily front- and back-of-house use. It is not intended for industrial extraction or heavy-duty debris clearance. Sites with larger floor areas, higher footfall, or more intensive cleaning schedules may find a higher-capacity model better suited to the workload.

If you are equipping a new site or reviewing your current cleaning setup and want to make sure you have the right machine for the environment, we are happy to talk it through before you order.

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.

The Numatic RSB150NX is a cordless backpack vacuum cleaner built for professional cleaning in commercial environments. The unit sits on the operator's back via an adjustable, posture-correcting harness with a breathable mesh panel, leaving both hands free for the cleaning task and removing the need to manoeuvre a canister between tables, counters, or service areas. It runs on Numatic's 36V NX300 battery platform with a brushless digital motor, which draws less energy and maintains consistent suction throughout the charge rather than fading as the battery depletes.

In practice, this kind of machine suits environments where cleaning has to happen efficiently around active service — hotel dining rooms, restaurant front-of-house, contract catering operations, and food production corridors. The absence of a trailing cable removes a slip and trip hazard that is otherwise common during post-service clean-down, particularly in tight spaces, stairways, or anywhere staff and customers are moving at the same time. Runtime supports extended cleaning rounds without stopping to recharge mid-route, and the battery returns to 80% charge quickly enough to remain practical between shifts.

Key operational advantages include:

• No trailing cable reduces slip, trip, and fall risk in busy service areas
• Consistent suction from start to finish of each charge cycle
• Hands-free carry reduces operator fatigue across longer cleaning routes
• Integrated tool storage keeps accessories to hand without a separate bag
• Compatible with standard Numatic accessory and tube sets

There are no fixed electrical installation requirements — the unit charges from a standard mains socket via its battery pack. If the machine will rotate across multiple floors or separate buildings, having a spare battery available will help maintain cleaning continuity without waiting on a recharge. The 5-litre capacity handles most routine commercial cleaning tasks comfortably; for particularly debris-heavy environments or very high-volume sites, a larger-capacity cylinder or upright model may be worth considering instead.

This model is well suited to hotels, restaurants, pubs, contract caterers, and facilities teams where floor-level cleaning needs to fit around service periods. It is equally practical for food production sites where managing cables around equipment is a genuine operational concern. If you have specific hygiene zoning requirements or are equipping a team across a large site, it is worth a conversation before ordering to confirm this model fits your workflow — the team is glad to help you work through the options.

The Numatic NRV370 is a cylinder vacuum cleaner built for regular commercial use. It carries a 15-litre bin capacity, which reduces how often bags need changing during a cleaning shift, and uses Hepaflo high-filtration dust bags to help contain fine dust particles rather than redistributing them into the air. The machine includes variable airflow control, allowing the operator to adjust suction to suit different surfaces and tasks without switching tools.

In commercial environments, the NRV370 is commonly used for daily and deep cleaning of dining areas, corridors, back-of-house storage, and dry kitchen spaces. The variable performance control makes it practical across different floor types — carpet in front-of-house areas through to hard flooring in service corridors. The bumper guard helps protect skirting boards and furniture during use, which matters in venues where appearance counts.

From an operational standpoint, a few features are worth noting:

• 15-litre capacity reduces bag-change interruptions during longer cleaning runs
• Variable airflow control adapts suction to surface type and debris load
• 12.5-metre power cord with rewind system keeps cable tidy and reduces trip hazards
• Hepaflo filtration bags support cleaner air discharge in occupied or food-adjacent spaces
• A1 accessory kit included, covering a range of common cleaning attachments

The NRV370 is a mains-powered cylinder unit requiring a standard 13A socket. It carries no water connection or wet-pick-up capability, so it is not suited to liquid spills or wet floor situations — a wet-and-dry machine would be needed for those tasks. Weight and footprint are modest, making it easy to move between rooms or store in a cleaning cupboard.

This model is well suited to hotels, restaurants, care homes, offices, and similar venues where a reliable, mid-capacity dry vacuum is needed for daily cleaning duties. Sites with unusually high footfall or particularly large floor areas may find a higher-capacity or more heavy-duty model a better long-term fit.

If you're unsure whether this model matches your cleaning requirements or want to compare it against alternatives, the team is happy to help you work through the options.

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.

The Numatic PPT220 is a commercial-grade upright vacuum cleaner supplied with a dedicated cleaning caddy that attaches directly to the machine. The result is a self-contained mobile cleaning station — cloths, chemicals, and ancillary materials travel with the vacuum rather than being stored separately or fetched from different points across a back-of-house area. It is a straightforward arrangement, but one that makes a noticeable difference to the efficiency of cleaning rounds in working hospitality environments.

In practice, the caddy removes the common frustration of making separate trips for the vacuum and the cleaning kit. For front-of-house turnarounds between services, or end-of-shift cleaning routines in cafés, hotels, and restaurants, having everything in one mobile unit keeps operators moving and reduces the time lost to back-and-forth. The two-speed motor allows suction to be matched to the surface being cleaned — useful when working across different floor types or when noise levels need to be kept down during quieter periods.

Practical points worth noting:

• Integrated caddy keeps cleaning supplies organised and mobile alongside the vacuum
• Two-speed operation provides flexibility across different surfaces and noise environments
• Power cables can be changed without an electrician, keeping maintenance straightforward
• Large rear wheels and front castors handle uneven and tiled flooring reliably

The PPT220 is well suited to restaurants, cafés, hotels, pubs, and similar hospitality operations where organised, efficient cleaning rounds matter. It is not designed for heavy industrial use or high-frequency deep-cleaning on very large sites — for those applications, a more robust machine would be worth considering.

If you would like to talk through whether this unit fits your operation, or whether a different configuration makes more sense, the team is glad to help you think it through.

The Rubbermaid Mechanical Brushless Sweeper is a manually operated floor sweeper designed for routine cleaning in commercial catering and hospitality environments. Rather than using conventional bristle brushes, it uses non-marking rubber blades to collect dust, debris, and minor spills from hard floor surfaces without scattering fine particles or leaving marks on sealed flooring.

In day-to-day kitchen and front-of-house use, this type of sweeper works well between service periods when a full mop-down isn't needed but the floor requires a quick pass. The rubber blade system handles dry debris and light spillage reliably across smooth and lightly textured hard floors, and the lightweight construction — around 2.2kg — means it can be used for extended periods without fatigue.

Practical advantages for busy sites include:

• Non-marking rubber blades suitable for use on a range of sealed hard floor surfaces
• Lightweight galvanised steel and ABS plastic construction keeps the unit easy to handle
• No power source required — no cables, no charging, ready to use immediately
• Compact footprint makes storage straightforward in tight back-of-house areas
• Quick to deploy for between-service floor maintenance without disrupting service flow

The sweeper is best suited to front-of-house dining areas, bar floors, café spaces, and hotel corridors where light daily maintenance is the primary need. It is not designed to replace a full wet-mop regime or handle heavy industrial spillage — for high-traffic kitchens with significant debris, a more robust cleaning solution would be worth considering.

If you're unsure whether this sweeper fits the cleaning routine you have in mind, our team is happy to talk through your requirements.

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.

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.

The Numatic NVQ570 is a single-motor dry vacuum cleaner built for regular commercial use. With a 23-litre capacity and a Structofoam body — a material chosen for its resistance to the knocks and impacts typical of back-of-house environments — it is designed to handle sustained cleaning duties without the bulk or complexity of larger industrial machines. It runs from a standard mains socket and requires no fixed installation.

In practice, the NVQ570 is most commonly used for dry debris pick-up: loose waste from food preparation areas, general floor cleaning at end of service, and corridor maintenance in hospitality and catering environments. Numatic's TwinFlo two-stage motor arrangement helps maintain consistent suction over longer cleaning runs, and the AirFlo airflow design is intended to sustain performance as the bag fills — which matters when stopping mid-task to change bags is disruptive to a cleaning schedule. The Hepa-Flo bag system helps reduce particulate in the exhaust air, a relevant consideration in any area where food hygiene standards apply.

• Sustained suction during extended runs, reducing mid-task interruptions
• Hepa-Flo bag system supports cleaner exhaust air in food-preparation areas
• Structofoam body resists impact damage in busy back-of-house environments
• Fully directional castors allow easy manoeuvring around fixed kitchen equipment
• Replaceable power cable reduces maintenance downtime without specialist intervention

There are no water, drainage, or ventilation requirements. As a portable unit, the main practical considerations are storage space when not in use and cable routing during operation. The machine ships with a BA2 dry floor cleaning kit as standard.

The NVQ570 is well suited to smaller commercial kitchens, cafés, hospitality venues, and contract cleaning teams that need a reliable everyday vacuum without a large footprint. It is a dry-only machine — sites with wet pick-up requirements or significantly higher throughput should consider a wet-and-dry or higher-capacity model instead.

If you are weighing this up against other options for your site, the team is happy to help you work out which specification fits your cleaning regime.

The Numatic NQ100 Quick is a cordless vacuum cleaner built specifically for commercial use. Unlike domestic cordless machines pressed into service in professional environments, this unit has been designed and tested to meet the demands of regular, daily cleaning in hospitality, catering, and food service settings. It runs on a pair of detachable 25.2V lithium-ion batteries that can be swapped out and charged independently, so cleaning doesn't stop when one battery needs a rest.

In practice, the NQ100 suits front-of-house and back-of-house cleaning tasks where trailing cables are inconvenient or impractical — dining areas, corridors, dry storage, and prep spaces. The 1-litre capacity is modest, but the airflow is engineered to compact dust effectively, meaning it performs beyond what the headline figure might suggest. With up to 120 minutes of runtime available across the two batteries, it comfortably covers a full shift's worth of routine cleaning without interruption.

The Pod filter system is one of the more practical features here. Emptying is contained and dust-free, which matters in food environments where hygiene standards are non-negotiable. Key operational advantages include:

• Dust-free, hygienic emptying via the high-efficiency Pod system
• Two swappable batteries for uninterrupted cleaning across longer shifts
• Wall dock with on-board accessory storage keeps the unit tidy and accessible
• Lightweight and ergonomic design reduces fatigue during extended use
• No cables — practical for dining rooms and areas with frequent foot traffic

There are no fixed installation requirements — the wall dock needs a clear, accessible wall space and a nearby mains socket for charging. This is a single-user tool suited to small and medium sites; for larger venues running multiple cleaning rounds simultaneously, a heavier-duty or multi-unit solution may be worth considering.

The NQ100 is well suited to restaurants, cafés, hotels, and contract catering operations looking for a reliable, hygienic cordless option for daily front- and back-of-house cleaning. If you're unsure whether it fits your cleaning routine or site layout, our team is happy to help you work through the options.

The Samsung Jet 75E Pet is a cordless stick vacuum cleaner designed for general-purpose domestic cleaning. Powered by a digital inverter motor delivering up to 200W of suction, it handles a range of floor types and picks up fine dust and pet hair effectively. The unit weighs 2.6kg, making it straightforward to carry between rooms or floors without fatigue.

The multi-cyclonic air filtration system is rated to trap fine particles with 99.999% filtration efficiency across multiple layers, which is useful in environments where allergens or pet dander are a concern. The battery is removable, and the stated run time of 60 minutes per charge allows a reasonably sized space to be covered in a single session. A wall-mounted dock is included for charging and storage when not in use.

Practical points worth noting for day-to-day use:

• Cordless operation removes the need to manage trailing cables across a floor
• Removable battery means a spare can be kept charged for back-to-back use
• The included pet tool is designed to lift hair from upholstery and floor surfaces
• Lightweight build reduces operator fatigue during extended cleaning sessions
• Wall mount doubles as a charging station and keeps the unit stored tidily

It is important to note that the manufacturer warranty on this unit is non-commercial, meaning it is intended for domestic or light-duty use rather than sustained daily use in a professional environment. Operators requiring a vacuum for commercial premises should consider a machine specified and warranted for that purpose.

If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your intended use, our team is happy to talk through the options with you.

The Numatic PSP180-B2 is a compact, barrel-style dry vacuum cleaner designed for routine cleaning duties in commercial environments. It is supplied with the AH1 accessory kit, which includes a lightweight aluminium tube set, so the machine is ready to use straight from the box. It runs from a standard mains socket with no installation required.

In day-to-day kitchen and food service use, the PSP180-B2 handles dry debris, dust, and food particles from floors, under equipment, and in harder-to-reach corners. The TwinFlo motor maintains consistent suction through a working shift, and the TriTex filtration system helps contain fine particles rather than redistributing them into the air — a practical consideration in food preparation areas. The 10-metre mains cable gives a reasonable working range without repeatedly repositioning the machine.

Practical advantages for busy operations:

• TwinFlo motor delivers consistent suction throughout a cleaning shift
• TriTex filtration keeps fine dust contained during use
• HepaFlo bags change quickly without tools, keeping downtime minimal
• Mains cable is user-replaceable without calling an electrician
• AH1 kit included — no need to source accessories separately

It is worth being clear about what this machine is not intended for. The PSP180-B2 is a dry-only vacuum — it is not suited to wet pick-up or heavy industrial debris. Operators who need wet-and-dry capability should look at a purpose-built machine designed for that duty.

This model is a practical everyday choice for smaller kitchens, café and pub environments, and front-of-house areas where a reliable dry vacuum is needed for regular cleaning. For larger sites or more demanding schedules, a higher-capacity model may be worth considering instead.

If you would like to talk through whether this suits your site and cleaning routine, the team is glad to help.

The Numatic PRP180 is a compact, barrel-style wet and dry vacuum cleaner designed for professional cleaning use in commercial environments. It is supplied with an accessory kit that includes a multi-surface floor tool, aluminium tube set, and on-board tool storage, making it a ready-to-use option straight from the box. The machine is built around Numatic's established approach to durability and ease of use, and it incorporates a high-efficiency TriTex filtration system to maintain suction performance throughout the working day.

In a commercial kitchen or hospitality environment, day-to-day cleaning needs to be done quickly and without disruption to service preparation. The PRP180 is well suited to that kind of routine use — clearing dry debris from kitchen floors, dining areas, corridors, and back-of-house spaces. The 10-metre cable and long cleaning reach reduce the need to reposition frequently, which helps operators work through an area efficiently. It is a practical choice for smaller sites or as a secondary machine on larger premises.

Practical benefits of the PRP180 include:

• Multi-surface floor tool suitable for hard floors and light carpet
• TriTex filter maintains airflow and suction during prolonged use
• On-board tool storage keeps accessories accessible and tidy
• Long cable reach reduces the need to switch sockets mid-clean
• Built using a proportion of recycled post-industrial plastic, reducing material waste

The PRP180 is a plug-in, 230V domestic-supply machine and requires no specialist installation. It is lightweight and compact enough to store in a cleaning cupboard without difficulty. It is worth noting that this model is designed for dry vacuum use in standard cleaning applications — it is not intended for wet pickup or heavy-duty debris clearance. Sites generating significant volumes of waste, or those requiring industrial-grade filtration, may find a heavier-duty machine better suited to their needs.

The PRP180 is a reliable everyday cleaning machine well suited to smaller catering operations, cafés, hotel rooms, and hospitality back-of-house areas where a practical, no-fuss vacuum is needed. It is not positioned as a heavy industrial unit, but for the right application it performs consistently and holds up to daily use.

If you are unsure whether this model matches your site's cleaning demands, our team is happy to talk through the options with you before you commit.

The Numatic RSV150 RucSac is a backpack-style vacuum cleaner designed for commercial cleaning environments where a wheeled machine is impractical or slow to manoeuvre. Worn on the back using an adjustable harness, it leaves both hands free and allows the operator to move continuously through tight corridors, around closely packed furniture, or across multi-level spaces without the machine itself becoming an obstacle.

In busy hospitality or facilities settings, the practical advantages become clear during turnaround periods. Operators can cover ground quickly without repositioning a cylinder unit or managing a trailing drum. The 5-litre capacity supports longer uninterrupted runs before emptying is needed, which matters when cleaning time between service periods is limited. The extended cable reduces the need to switch sockets frequently, helping maintain momentum across larger areas.

• Backpack harness keeps both hands free throughout the cleaning shift
• Adjustable, breathable straps reduce operator fatigue during extended use
• Integrated hand control allows suction adjustment on the move
• Combi floor tool switches between carpet and hard floors without changing attachments
• Onboard tool storage keeps accessories accessible without a separate caddy

The RSV150 is a corded dry-vacuum machine. It requires access to a power supply and is not suitable for wet or liquid recovery — sites with regular spill risk should consider a wet-and-dry unit instead. It is supplied with an aluminium tube set and accessory kit, so it is ready to use from the outset with no additional purchase required.

This machine suits contract cleaners, hospitality venues, and facilities teams working across complex or multi-level spaces. Operators covering straightforward open-plan areas may find a standard cylinder machine equally effective at a lower price point, while high-frequency or heavy-duty cleaning operations may warrant a more robust backpack alternative.

If you would like to talk through whether the RSV150 is the right fit for your cleaning operation, our team is happy to help.

The Numatic NBV240NX is a cordless upright vacuum cleaner built around Numatic's 36V battery platform and powered by a digital brushless motor. It is designed for commercial cleaning teams who need reliable suction without the constraints of a trailing cable — a genuine practical consideration in any occupied or public-facing environment.

In commercial use, this type of machine is best suited to front-of-house areas: dining rooms, hotel corridors, retail floors, reception areas, and similar spaces where cleaning continues during service hours. The ability to recharge to 80% capacity in approximately an hour means the machine can turn around quickly between shifts or during quieter periods. For sites running extended or continuous cleaning rotations, keeping a second battery in reserve is worth considering from the outset.

From an operational standpoint, removing the cable addresses a genuine safety concern in public-facing spaces. Key practical advantages include:

• No cable reduces trip and slip risk in busy or customer-facing areas
• Consistent suction maintained throughout the battery charge cycle
• Compact design suits restricted storage and back-of-house cupboards
• Supplied complete with battery, charger, and accessory kit — ready to use immediately
• Brushless motor typically requires less ongoing maintenance than brushed alternatives

The 9-litre capacity handles routine daily cleaning tasks well, though on high-footfall sites it will need emptying more frequently. For operations covering very large floor areas or running extended cleaning shifts, a corded machine or a multi-battery setup may be a more practical fit.

The NBV240NX is well suited to hospitality, healthcare, education, and food retail environments where day cleaning in occupied spaces is a regular requirement. It is a capable step up for smaller operations replacing an older corded machine or introducing cordless cleaning for the first time.

If you'd like to talk through whether this model suits your site's cleaning routine, our team is glad to help.

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.

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.

The Numatic Henry NRV240-11 is one of the most widely used vacuum cleaners in commercial cleaning across the UK. It is a straightforward, dependable machine built around a 9-litre capacity bin and a self-sealing dust bag system, intended for regular daily use rather than occasional domestic cleaning. The long cable gives a practical working radius that suits larger floor areas without constant repositioning — a small but useful advantage during daily cleaning routines.

In catering and hospitality environments, reliability and hygiene handling matter more than novelty features. Henry has a well-established track record in kitchens, dining rooms, function spaces, and back-of-house areas. The self-sealing dust bags help contain fine debris and food particles when emptying, which is a genuine hygiene consideration in food-service settings. Two-stage filtration provides an additional layer of dust retention and helps reduce airborne particles during use.

The included accessory kit extends usefulness across different surfaces and spaces, which is practical where a single machine needs to cover hard floors, upholstered seating, and awkward areas around equipment.

• Self-sealing dust bags reduce mess and dust exposure when emptying
• Long cable extends working range before needing to relocate the machine
• Two-stage filtration helps contain fine particles and food debris
• Accessory kit suited to varied surfaces and hard-to-reach areas
• Energy-rated motor balances suction performance with running costs

Henry is well suited to small and medium-sized catering operations — cafés, hotel housekeeping, restaurant front and back of house, and similar environments. For very large sites or high-frequency cleaning demands, a heavier-duty machine may be worth considering.

If you would like to talk through whether this model suits your cleaning regime or site, we are happy to point you in the right direction.

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.

The Numatic PSP370-11 is a compact, upright-bodied cylinder vacuum cleaner built for regular commercial use. It pairs a high-efficiency motor with a 15-litre capacity bin and HepaFlo triple-layer filter bags, making it a practical choice for hotels, restaurants, contract caterers, and hospitality venues where reliable, repeated cleaning is part of the daily operation.

In a working commercial environment, durability and ease of use matter as much as suction power. The PSP370 is designed to handle frequent daily use without the maintenance headaches of lesser machines. The HepaFlo filter bag system captures fine particulate effectively and, importantly, allows for clean and straightforward bag changes — a practical advantage when the task falls to different members of staff across shifts.

From an operational standpoint, this machine offers several features that make it sensible for busy settings:

• HepaFlo filtration for hygienic, mess-free bag emptying
• On-board tool and cable storage keeps the machine self-contained
• NuCable system allows straightforward cable replacement without downtime
• Comprehensive AHO accessory kit suits a range of surface types and tasks
• Generous cable length supports larger rooms without frequent repositioning

There are no special installation requirements — the PSP370-11 runs from a standard UK mains socket and requires no fixed connection or specialist setup. It is a standalone unit and is well suited to front- and back-of-house cleaning across a single site. For larger premises, high-traffic venues, or sites requiring multiple machines running simultaneously, a more heavy-duty or higher-capacity model may be worth considering.

This machine is best suited to small-to-medium hospitality businesses — restaurants, cafés, small hotels, and staff-facing back-of-house areas — where a reliable, manageable vacuum is needed day to day without complexity.

If you are unsure whether this model fits your cleaning requirements or site setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

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.

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.

The Numatic James JVP180 is a compact, corded dry vacuum cleaner built for everyday commercial cleaning duties. It shares the same dependable construction that has made Numatic machines a familiar sight in commercial premises across the UK, and comes supplied with a full accessory kit so it is ready to use straight away. The 8-litre collection capacity gives it a useful edge over smaller-tank models, meaning staff can cover a reasonable floor area before needing to stop and empty.

In day-to-day commercial use, that extra capacity makes a practical difference during end-of-service cleans or morning preparation routines. The two-stage filtration maintains consistent airflow and captures fine dust effectively even as the bin fills, so suction does not tail off noticeably mid-clean. It handles carpets, hard floors, and general loose debris reliably across a standard cleaning session.

For operators, the key practical advantages are straightforward:

• Larger bin capacity reduces interruptions to empty during a cleaning run
• Two-stage filtration maintains suction and captures fine particles effectively
• A-rated energy efficiency helps keep daily running costs modest
• Long cable gives useful reach across a room without moving sockets
• Compact build stores neatly in a cleaning cupboard or service corridor

No fixed installation is needed — it runs from a standard 13-amp socket. It is designed for dry pick-up only and is not suitable for wet spills, liquids, or heavy construction debris. For those tasks a wet-and-dry or industrial machine would be the appropriate choice.

The James is well suited to small and medium-sized commercial premises — restaurant and pub dining areas, hotel corridors, staff rooms, and light front-of-house cleaning. Sites with larger floor areas or very high footfall may find a machine with greater capacity or a wider cleaning path more efficient for the volume of work involved.

If you are weighing this up against other options for your premises, the team is glad to help you find the right fit.

The Numatic NRP240 is a compact cylinder vacuum cleaner built for regular commercial cleaning duties in catering and hospitality environments. It uses Numatic's HepaFlo filtration system, which pairs a triple-layer filter bag with a TriTex outer filtration stage to capture fine dust and debris effectively, producing cleaner exhaust air than open-drum collection systems.

In a catering or hospitality setting, this type of machine is typically used between service periods — carpeted dining rooms, dry store rooms, staff areas, and dry kitchen floors where a wet vacuum would be unnecessary. The long cable means operators can cover a reasonable area without constantly moving to a new socket, which makes a practical difference in larger dining rooms or extended corridors.

Day-to-day advantages worth noting:

• Sealed HepaFlo bag removal reduces operator exposure to dust during emptying
• Improved exhaust air quality compared to open-drum alternatives
• Long cable reduces interruption during cleaning runs across larger floor areas
• Stainless steel tube set and accessory kit handle most standard dry cleaning tasks
• Plugged cable rewind system allows cable replacement without returning the unit for service

It is worth being clear that the NRP240 is a dry vacuum only. It is not suitable for liquid pickup or wet kitchen environments. For sites with regular wet spillage, a wet-and-dry model would be the more appropriate choice. This unit is well suited to smaller operations or as a secondary machine alongside a primary wet-and-dry unit.

If you are weighing this up against other options for your site, the team is glad to help you work through what makes practical sense.

The Kärcher BD 43/25 C BP is a compact, battery-powered scrubber dryer designed for regular floor cleaning in smaller commercial spaces. It scrubs and dries in a single pass, removing the need for separate mopping and leaving floors dry and safe underfoot without the trailing hazard of a power cable.

Powered by a 24V battery, the machine is well suited to routine maintenance cleaning and quick interim cleans during or between service periods. Its compact footprint allows it to navigate tighter corridors, back-of-house passages, and smaller kitchen or front-of-house areas where a larger ride-on or full-size walk-behind machine would be impractical. The practical area performance makes it a capable choice for sites that need a reliable daily cleaning routine without committing to a larger machine.

From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are straightforward:

• Cordless operation removes trip hazards and extends reach without rerouting cables
• Single-pass scrub and dry reduces cleaning time compared to traditional mopping
• Compact dimensions suit areas where larger machines cannot manoeuvre
• Battery power means no dependency on nearby sockets during cleaning runs
• Straightforward controls keep operator training time to a minimum

As an entry-level machine, the BD 43/25 C BP is honest about its scope — it is not designed for large open floor areas or extended high-volume runs. Sites with significantly larger floor plates, or those requiring continuous back-to-back cleaning sessions, should consider a higher-capacity model with a larger tank and extended battery runtime.

If you are unsure whether this machine matches your floor area, surface type, or cleaning frequency, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.

The Kärcher KM 85/50 R BP is a battery-powered ride-on sweeper designed for sites that need efficient floor cleaning across moderate-to-large areas without the constraints of a mains cable. It sits at the entry level of Kärcher's ride-on sweeper range, which means it brings the productivity of a ride-on machine in a more compact footprint than higher-capacity models in the same family.

In practice, this sweeper covers ground at a meaningful rate, making it a practical choice for warehouses, production floors, covered loading bays, car parks, and large commercial kitchens or food-preparation facilities where debris accumulates quickly. The floating main roller adjusts automatically to uneven surfaces, picking up dirt and debris without leaving residue or requiring manual readjustment — useful on sites where flooring is not perfectly level. The integrated battery system removes the need for trailing cables, which matters in environments with heavy foot traffic or moving equipment.

From an operational standpoint, several features reduce downtime and simplify daily use:

• Tool-free roller replacement keeps routine maintenance straightforward
• Wide-opening cover provides easy, tool-free access to the machine interior
• Dust filter can be cleaned by the operator from the seat, without stopping work
• Integrated Home Base system allows cleaning utensils to be carried on the machine
• Compact dimensions allow use in congested or confined internal areas

Because this is a ride-on machine, it does require sufficient aisle width and turning space to operate effectively. It is better suited to open floor plans than narrow galley-style layouts. Battery charging requirements should be factored into shift planning — ensure a suitable charging point is available and that run-time aligns with your operational hours. For very large sites or high-frequency daily use, a higher-capacity model from the ride-on range may be worth considering.

This sweeper suits facilities managers, contract cleaners, and operators of medium-to-large commercial sites who need a reliable, manoeuvrable machine that one person can operate with minimal training. Smaller sites with tighter budgets or lower floor area may find a walk-behind sweeper sufficient for their needs.

If you are weighing this up against other models or want to check it fits your site layout and shift pattern, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.

The Kärcher BD 80/100 W BP is a battery-powered, walk-behind scrubber dryer built for large-area floor cleaning in commercial and industrial environments. It combines scrubbing and drying in a single pass, leaving floors clean and largely dry without the need for separate mopping or drying operations. The machine is self-propelled, which reduces operator fatigue across extended cleaning runs, and the complete battery and charger package means it is ready to put to work without additional procurement.

In practice, this type of machine is well suited to environments where large floor areas need to be covered consistently and efficiently — food production facilities, distribution warehouses, large kitchens, and similar hard-floored commercial spaces. The disc brush head and squeegee are constructed from die-cast aluminium, which holds up well under daily use and resists the kind of wear that would shorten the life of lighter-duty alternatives. The traction drive assists on inclines and uneven gradients, which is useful in sites that are not entirely level.

Key operational advantages include:

• Single-pass scrub and dry reduces overall cleaning time
• Battery operation removes trailing cable hazards and improves manoeuvrability
• Adjustable brush contact pressure allows operators to tackle heavier soiling when required
• Die-cast aluminium brush head and squeegee offer durability under regular commercial use
• Traction drive supports consistent performance across larger floor runs

Before committing, it is worth considering the space required to store and charge the machine, and whether your existing electrical supply suits the charger. The size and weight of the unit mean it is not practical for small or heavily partitioned floor areas — it performs best where there is open, unobstructed floor space to work with. For smaller sites or tighter spaces, a more compact machine may be a better fit; for very high-throughput industrial environments, a larger ride-on model may be worth considering.

This machine is most appropriate for operators managing medium-to-large commercial floor areas who need a reliable, self-contained daily cleaning solution that does not depend on mains power during operation.

If you are unsure whether this model suits the size and layout of your site, we are happy to talk it through before you make a decision.
