They're heavy. They're bulky. They're loud. And for all their dust-busting acumen, they can also be a huge clog in your productivity pipeline.
Enter the Battery-powered Cordless Upright Vacuum.
Batteries long-ago replaced cords on a variety of janitorial equipment in the last decade - a trend that has finally come en masse to the stand-up vacuum category. And while that may not seem newsworthy to many, it can be a blessing for hotel properties looking to streamline productivity.
“I think most people in the cleaning industry would love everything to be cordless if it made financial sense,” says Jeffrey Pease, director of commercial sales for CleanMax Vacuums, Fenton, Missouri. “We’re finally reaching the crossroads where the runtimes justify spending a little more.”
According to research, making the switch to cordless vacuums can boost productivity by as much as 30 to 35 percent*, a sizeable increase that may sway buyers who are often resistant to new technologies.
"One of the main benefits of cordless technology is you're not tethered to the wall," says Stephanie Mitchell, director of marketing commercial for TTI Floor Care, Charlotte, North Carolina. "End users have to change outlets pretty frequently and that takes a lot of time."
So maybe it’s time to say goodbye to damaged cords and outlet-hunting, and hello to the future.
