3120 Upright vacuum cleaner launched in South Africa

Southern African distributor of the Tennant cleaning equipment range announced the launch of a green-labeled ETL certified upright vacuum cleaner known as the Tennant model 3120 in Southern Africa.

Vacuum cleaning moved from cleaning carpets and other surfaces into a science where it is important not just to remove dust, but also ensure good indoor air quality. (IAQ) Vacuums that effectively remove soil and keep carpets looking good will lead to carpets lasting longer, increasing return on investment.

In 2000 the CRI (United States) introduced a Green label testing program for vacuum cleaners. The testing program entails two areas of testing: a) general purpose vacuums approved for use on all conventional carpet styles; and b) vacuums specifically approved for use on carpet with a low pile, or surface texture, measuring approximately 1/4 inch or less. Vacuum cleaners that meet test protocols may display the CRI green label on packaging and the products itself.

Tennant International´s 3120 upright vacuum cleaner passed the low pile protocol which means that the 3120 vacuum cleaner is approved for use on carpet typically found in commercial or institutional buildings, such as corporate offices, schools and healthcare facilities.

S8 walk behind sweeper launch

Johannesburg, South Africa - Sorma S.A.(Pty) Ltd. t/a TENNANT S.A., Southern African distributor of the Tennant cleaning equipment range announced the launch of a new wide-area walk behind cordless sweeper named the S8.

Keeping indoors and out-door floors clean at the best of times is a dirty business, especially in high traffic areas for example shopping centers. How many times do you visit your local mall with the cleaning crew sweeping and mopping only with customers trampling over the floors again while they are still cleaning it?

Well, those days could soon be over with the introduction of the S8 walk behind sweeper in the South African market place. The Tennant S8 is a highly efficient battery powered sweeper with a sweeping path of 50cm to 67cm. The three-wheel turning system and easy controls are user-friendly for low operator fatigue. The front side brush and the 51cm main brush, sweeps up to nearly 35L of litter and debris into its large hopper. The hopper pops out easily for quick emptying. This model comes standard with an on-board charger. A 12V battery provides cordless operation up to four hours. Remarkably quiet for noise-sensitive environments.

Tennant T6600 outdoor sweeper

by Juan Minnaar, Johannesburg office

Approximately 6 months ago, I did a cold call at Vesuvius South Africa. Eventually I managed to speak to Mr. Gert Coetzee, the factory manager. He advised me that they used Tennant´s products in the past and might require an outdoor sweeper in the near future.

The old machines were still on-site. I took this up with our Director at Tennant (Ricky Bodmer) after which he accompanied me to visit Mr. Coetzee.

After agreeing that a trade-in is possible, we did a complete customer needs analysis and site survey resulting in us recommending a Tennant T6600D sweeper. The demonstration took place in beginning June 2006, with the final order on 7 July 2006.
