Clean Smarter and Longer with Lithium-Ion Technology

Minimising downtime amid labour shortages

Labour shortages are a persistent challenge for the cleaning industry, impacting productivity and limiting growth opportunities. With high turnover and staffing gaps becoming the norm, minimising machine downtime is essential for maintaining efficient operations.

Tennant’s Lithium-ion powered floor cleaning machines offer a practical solution. By charging faster, running longer, and requiring minimal maintenance, they help facilities maintain consistent cleaning performance—even with leaner teams.

Why Choose Lithium-Ion Batteries For Your Cleaning Machine?

• Extended runtime: Longer operational periods between charges keep cleaning tasks on track.
• Rapid charging: Recharge up to 30% faster than lead-acid batteries, reducing machine downtime.
• Low maintenance: No messy watering or complex upkeep, just plug in and go.
• Enhanced safety: Eliminate the risk of acid spills or harmful gases, ensuring a safer work environment.
• Sustainability: Lithium-ion batteries are energy-efficient and contribute to lower carbon emissions compared to traditional power sources.

Maximising the benefits of Lithium-Ion batteries

To fully leverage the performance and sustainability benefits of Lithium-ion technology, it’s essential to follow best practices. Here are three tips to help you get the most out of your batteries:

3 Tips for getting the most from Lithium-Ion

1. Proper storage: Store batteries in a cool, dry place to extend their lifespan.
2. Routine checks: Clean battery terminals regularly to maintain efficient energy transfer.
3. Opportunity charging: Top up whenever convenient—no need to wait for a full drain. This keeps machines ready when needed most.

Lithium-Ion now available across more Tennant machines

Tennant has long embraced Lithium-ion technology, first introducing it with the CS5 compact scrubber. Given the clear benefits of faster charging, longer runtime, and lower maintenance, we equipped our T16AMR Robotics Scrubber with Lithium-ion batteries to maximise efficiency and uptime. This battery option gives facilities even greater flexibility in choosing sustainable, high-performance power solutions that reduce downtime and enhance productivity.
