Nobles introduces family of compact cord-electric floor care products
Strive® Carpet Cleaner with ReadySpace® Technology deep cleans carpets that dry in approximately 30 minutes

Tennant Company, a world leader in designing, manufacturing and marketing solutions that help create a cleaner, safer world, recently introduced the Nobles Strive® Compact Carpet Cleaner, the Nobles Speed Scrub® Cylindrical Scrubber, and the Nobles Speed EX™ Carpet Extractor, a platform-based family of compact, maneuverable, cord-electric floor care machines designed specifically to quickly and easily clean small, congested spaces.

“Nobles is known for its durable commercial cleaning products that quickly, reliably, and effectively get the job done,” said Chris Killingstad, Tennant Company president and CEO. “With these three products, facilities with tight, congested spaces can reap the cleaning, productivity, and bottom-line benefits that only Nobles offers.”

The Strive® Compact Carpet Cleaner with ReadySpace® Technology

The small, maneuverable Strive Compact Carpet Cleaner with ReadySpace Technology improves the look of carpet and provides a visibly clean carpet in less than 30 minutes.

Tennant Company’s ReadySpace technology uses less chemical to help prevent resoiling, uses less water to reduce the risk of slip-and-fall accidents when transitioning from just-cleaned carpet to hard floor surfaces, delivers a consistent carpet appearance, and doesn’t damage carpet like some other carpet care methods. With its forward and reverse cleaning action, a low-profile body, adjustable ergonomic handle, the Strive Compact with ReadySpace is ideal for quickly and effectively cleaning small spaces.

The Strive Compact Carpet Cleaner offers a 15-inch cleaning path, a five-gallon solution tank, a five-gallon recovery tank, and a 50-foot power cord.

Speed Scrub® Cylindrical Scrubber

The corded, low-profile Speed Scrub Walk-Behind Automatic Scrubber completes the compact end of the Nobles Speed Scrub family of commercial scrubbers, which also includes the 17-20 inch and 24-32 inch Speed Scrub Walk-Behind Automatic Scrubbers and the Speed Scrub Micro-Rider.

With its compact, maneuverable design, the Speed Scrub Cylindrical Scrubber removes the toughest grime from even the tightest spaces, including kitchens, bathrooms, locker rooms, food courts, and patient rooms. With its no-hassle squeegee and 1.2 horsepower vacuum, it also provides unmatched water recovery. And with its uncomplicated controls, it reduces operator fatigue and increases productivity.

The Speed Scrub Walk-Behind Automatic Scrubber offers a 15-inch cleaning path, a three-gallon solution tank, a 4.5-gallon recovery tank, and a 50-foot power cord.

The Speed EX™ Carpet Extractor

The corded, low-profile Speed EX Carpet Extractor offers powerful deep cleaning performance even in the most congested and hard-to-reach areas.

The Speed EX Carpet Extractor includes dual overlapping spray jets, an automatic float-adjust brush to accommodate different carpet piles, and superior vacuum suction that provides reliable one-pass cleaning and the removal of embedded dirt or recurring spots and stains. And with its compact size, the Speed EX Carpet Extractor easily maneuvers around beds, desks, tables and other objects. The Speed EX improves productivity with lift-off solution and recovery tanks that can be filled and emptied almost anywhere.

The Speed EX Carpet Extractor offers a 15-inch cleaning path, a five-gallon solution/recovery tank, and a 50-foot power cord.
