Cost calculator

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

If a business user is going to invest in professional cleaning equipment they need to be sure about performance, cost savings, longevity, service and support.

Using its cost calculator is an important element of the on-site surveys carried out by the Nilfisk team. 

Like many traditional manufacturing companies, Craftsman Tools in West Yorkshire relied on the broom and scrubbing brush to keep their factory floors clean. Once a week two men using brooms, scrubbing brushes and a wet vacuum would take ten hours and 125 litres of water to clean 10,000 square feet of shop floor. 

The installation of a Nilfisk SW750 sweeper and BA551 pedestrian scrubber dryer with integrated Ecoflex detergent system resulted in a weekly cost saving of £89.95 or 49%, equating to an annual saving of £4677.00. With equipment costs totalling £6151.00 the initial payback period will be as little as 16 months.
