This resource guide breaks down every category of floor cleaning equipment TerraScrub manufactures — walk-behind and ride-on scrubbers for indoor hard floors, enclosed-cabin sweepers for outdoor lots and grounds, and autonomous driverless machines for facilities that need round-the-clock cleaning. Below you will find equipment specs, industry-specific application guides, a comparison table, and maintenance resources with links to detailed articles on each topic.

1Floor scrubber equipment types for indoor cleaning

Walk-behind scrubbers like the BA860 cover 4,200 m² per hour with a dual-brush deck and fit through standard doorways — ideal for retail aisles, school hallways, and medical corridors under 10,000 m². For larger indoor spaces, the BA850 ride-on scrubber delivers 5,800 m²/h with a 195L recovery tank and 6-hour battery runtime, built for warehouse floors, exhibition halls, and food production facilities where a walk-behind would take too long.

🧽
Walk-Behind Scrubbers
BA860, BA680, BA530 — compact dual-brush machines for narrow aisles and tight corners
Up to 4,200 m²/h
🚜
Ride-On Scrubbers
BA850, A7, A5 — operator-driven machines for large flat floors and multi-zone facilities
Up to 5,800 m²/h
🔧
Compact Scrubbers
A3, A3D — 21-inch walk-behind units for spots under 25,000 sq ft
Up to 2,400 m²/h

2Industrial sweeper equipment for outdoor surfaces

Outdoor sweepers handle debris that scrubbers cannot — gravel, leaves, sawdust, litter, and bulk material on asphalt, concrete, and compacted dirt. The BA1900 is TerraScrub's flagship enclosed-cabin sweeper, covering 14,000 m² per hour with a 620L water tank for dust suppression and a 35% gradeability rating for inclined lots. The lighter BA2100 matches the same sweeping width at 680 kg with a sunshade cabin, suited to flat distribution yards and campus walkways where a heavier machine is unnecessary.

For detailed dust management strategies during outdoor sweeping, see our dust control sweeping guide covering six field-tested methods. For sawmill-specific wood debris cleanup, the Oregon sawmills sweeping guide breaks down bark and sawdust handling zone by zone.

Sweepers collect dry debris into a hopper bin. Scrubbers wash and recover liquid into a dirty water tank. They are not interchangeable — using a scrubber on loose gravel clogs the vacuum hose, and using a sweeper on sticky grease just pushes it around.


3Autonomous and driverless floor cleaning equipment

The C80 driverless scrubber uses LiDAR and vision navigation to clean 2,040 m² per hour without an operator. It maps routes automatically, avoids obstacles in real time, and runs on a 24V/120Ah battery for 3-4 hours per charge. Facilities like airports, shopping malls, and hospital lobbies use it for overnight cleaning when foot traffic is low — one machine can cover the same area as a walk-behind scrubber without paying someone to push it.

According to ISSA, the right equipment can cut labor hours by up to 60% compared to manual mopping and sweeping. Matching machine type to surface type and debris type is what determines whether you see that savings.
