NO MORE MOP & PAIL
Manual cleaning tasks can be performed faster, more effectively and more hygienically with the new Kärcher BR 30/4 C automatic floor scrubber. The unit has a roller brush and is ideal for hard surfaces with an area of about 20 square metres or more. The contact pressure of the roller brush is 10 times higher than that exerted with a mop. As the machine sprays water, scrubs and recovers the cleaning solution in a single pass, the floor dries immediately.
