The back pack point of difference? You can simply do more in less time!

Time is money. And labour is by far a contractor's single biggest on-the-job cost.

Inefficient labour management and poor choice of cleaning equipment can destroy the profitability of any job.

Research proves back packs are the most efficient tool for the majority of contract cleaning work.

A well-trained back pack operator can effectively clean (without compromising quality) over 700 square metres per hour according to the International Sanitary Suppliers Association (ISSA) 'Cleaning Times' Guidelines (October 2003 Edition).

That’s why we have called our latest release of Superpro backpacks ‘Superpro 700’.

The operator simply ‘walks through’ their work.

Compare that with the same well-trained operator using an alternative type (see table below) and the productivity difference is obvious.
Pullalong / canister type with 12" carpet tool  100 square metres – 24 minutes
Upright – 12” 100 square metres - 26.80 minutes
Backpack vac with 12" carpet tool 100 square metres – 8.25 minutes
 
With back packs cleaning 100 square metres every 8.25 minutes, that's easily over 700 square metres per hour.
 
But don't back pack vacuums hurt your back?

Back pack vacuum cleaners are a popular choice for office buildings. With many floors to clean, the speed of cleaning is greatly improved with the use of a back pack. It is a common misconception that they hurt your back after a while.

If they are hurting your back, you need to look at if you are wearing the machine correctly. The weight of the  vacuum should be dispersed around your hips with the pressure being on the waist strap. Try a little experiment, by putting the back pack on and sliding the shoulder straps off. If the vacuum falls to the ground, it means the waist strap is not doing its job. This is because you are not wearing the machine correctly.

Ensure the waist belt is tight but comfortable, it is in good condition and located just on top of the hips. The shoulder straps are there just to balance the machine. The shoulder strap should not be the load bearing part of the machine. when you put the machine on for the first time, loosen the straps completely, then put it on your back. Tighten the straps, but at the same time put your right hand over your heart. Tighten the strap so that you can slide your hand in and out like putting your shoes on. Not too easy and not to hard, but just right. you have now ensured that you are wearing the machine correctly.
