Why steam

A hose and chemicals, or heat and very little water.

Wash a vehicle with very little water.

Dry steam, per vehicle

3 to 4 litres

Per vehicle. Little enough that there's no run-off to deal with.

A pressure washer, same job

150 to 300 litres

Both figures: Optima brochure.

What changes when you clean with steam.

Chemicals
A wash-down usually means chemicals, then a rinse. The steam itself needs no chemical. Some Steam Italy models can also inject detergent.
Residue
Where no detergent is used, nothing is left on the surface to rinse off.
Tight spaces
A cloth wipes the face of a surface. A steam nozzle gets into seams, grout, door seals and equipment housings.
Steam and vacuum
Several steamers in the range, the XSTEAM 18K and INOX 6000 among them, steam and vacuum in one unit.

All bacteria and germs are killed at 100 degrees.

How dry steam works

Sectors

Seven kinds of site. Find yours.

A commercial kitchen with a stainless extraction canopy over a range and bratt pans, tiled walls and a rubber floor, no one in frame.

Commercial Kitchens

The canopy, the grout and everything behind the fryer.

 Trays of raw meat cuts stacked on a stainless processing rack, no one in frame.

Butcheries & Cold Rooms

Bandsaw housings, drains, and the floor junction.

 A gloved hand drawing a tray of bread rolls from a bakery rack.

Bakeries

Proofers, trays, mixers, and flour in every seam.

 Bed linen stripped and gathered on a bare mattress mid-changeover, no one in frame.

Hospitality

Mattresses, upholstery and the bathroom grout.

 An empty care corridor with wall grab rails running its full length, no patient or child in frame.

Healthcare & Childcare

High-touch surfaces, without the chemical load.

 A pair of hands working on a rusted vehicle chassis in a workshop, tools and wiring in frame, no face visible.

Industrial, workshops and plant

Grease and oil, without solvent to store or a wet floor to wait for.

 A gloved hand drawing an upholstery extraction tool across a fabric car seat, hose and coupler in frame.

Automotive & Fleet

Three to four litres a vehicle. No wash bay.

Why EcoSteam

We sell the steamers, and we use them.

EcoSteam supplies the steamer, makes sure your team is ready to use it, and services it afterwards. We also run our own cleaning business with the same steamers, so our advice comes from the work.

When your steamer arrives, we train your team. When something stops working, you speak to the people who sold it to you.

Every steamer carries a 12-month factory warranty, with maintenance plans and after-sales service in major cities. What happens after the steamer arrives

For a butchery, a bakery, a cold room or a fleet, owning a steamer can cost less than paying a contractor. Put in your own figures and see.
