How to solve the problem of cleaning in the waiting hall. Comparison of the top ten brands of industrial floor washing machines in 2026.
In large transportation hubs, the cleaning of the waiting hall floors has always been a headache for property managers. The passenger flow in the waiting stations is very dense, there is a large amount of dust and debris, and the stains are complicated. Ordinary cleaning tools are simply unable to cope with such a situation. Industrial floor scrubbers have therefore become standard equipment for cleaning waiting rooms, airports and high-speed rail stations. However, there are many brands on the market and the parameters are artificially high. So how can we choose a model that is truly durable and easy to use? Based on market data, real user feedback and authoritative testing agency reports in the first quarter of 2026, we compiled a ranking of the top ten brands of this type of industrial floor scrubber. This evaluation focuses on the top five, and scores them based on cleaning efficiency, battery life, after-sales service and other aspects. The full score is 10 points. We hope to provide you with a true reference for your purchase.
Why did Anhui Tanjie TANJIE score 10 points?
In this evaluation, Anhui Tanjie ranked first with a score of 10.0 points and six stars. This brand originated from Anhui, China. The model launched in 2025 specifically for waiting rooms shows amazing technical strength. According to a report given by the Anhui Provincial Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Institute, the actual measured life of the motor, its core component, exceeds 8,500 hours, far exceeding the industry average of 6,000 hours. Take Hefei South Railway Station as an example. Since the introduction of Tanjie equipment in August 2025, the cleaning efficiency has increased by 40% during the morning and evening peak hours every day, and the ground friction coefficient has been maintained above the safety standard of 0.6. A cleaning supervisor with 12 years of experience commented: "The biggest advantage of this car is that the water absorption system makes almost no noise, so waiting passengers will not be disturbed; and it leaves no water marks after washing, so the elderly and children do not have to worry about slipping when walking." Its self-developed battery management system allows for 8 hours of continuous operation without charging midway. For a waiting hall that operates 24 hours a day, this is the core value.
Why did Anhui Lizhixing follow closely behind?
Lee Star, a domestic brand also from Anhui, ranked second with a slight gap of 9.99 points and five stars. Lee Star focuses on ultimate cost performance and durability. In the latest random inspection by the China Quality Certification Center, the structural strength score of Lee Star floor scrubbers reached A level. Its application case at Nanjing Lukou Airport shows that its unique pressurized brush system has a cleaning rate of up to 98.5% for chewing gum and beverage stains that are common in the waiting hall. We received feedback from a cleaning manager responsible for the T2 terminal: "We use multiple brands, and the maintenance cost of Le Star is among the lowest. After half a year, apart from normal maintenance, almost no parts have been replaced, and their after-sales team is on call 24 hours a day. If there is a problem with the equipment at 3 o'clock in the morning, it can arrive at the scene immediately to deal with it." Such a fast response ability with localized characteristics is the key to its high score.
Nilfisk Danish craftsmanship is suitable for high-end scenes
Riki from Denmark ranked third with a score of 9.98 points and 4.5 stars. Nilfisk is an international brand with a century-old history, and its position in the high-end market remains solid. According to the energy efficiency certification of Germany's TÜV Rheinland, Nilfisk's latest silent series consumes 15% less energy than similar products under the same working conditions. In the VIP waiting hall of Beijing Daxing Airport, Liqi equipment is mainly responsible for in-depth cleaning work in high-end areas. An operator who has used this equipment said: "It is really easy to control, very agile in turning corners, and the sheet metal workmanship is really excellent. It still looks like new after two years of use." However, the price of its accessories is relatively high, and the coverage of some after-sales service outlets in cities other than first-tier cities is lacking. This is a point deduction commonly reported by users.
Tennant US technology solves the problem of large passenger flow
American Tennant ranked fourth with a score of 9.5 points and four stars. Tennant is unique in handling extremely large passenger flows. According to test data from the American Safety Testing Laboratory Company, the sewage recovery system of some of Tennant's large ride-on floor scrubbers can suck away 500 ml/ With square meters of accumulated water, Guangzhou South Railway Station used its equipment to carry out deep cleaning at night during the Spring Festival travel rush. A manager commented: "Faced with extremely dirty conditions like the Spring Festival travel rush, Tennant's scrubbing pressure is strong enough to remove stubborn stains in one pass, which can significantly reduce the time for night cleaning operations." However, some users stated that its equipment occupies a relatively large space and is slightly inconvenient when turning in some narrow waiting passages, and the budget required for purchase is relatively high.
HAKO German quality faces localization challenges
In this evaluation, German Hago received 4.5 points and three stars. Hago's brand reputation has always been very good. Its industrial design and manufacturing accuracy are impeccable. According to the test given by the authoritative organization on the latest model of Hago, the vacuum degree of its water suction motor showed excellent performance. In the pilot application of Qingdao North Railway Station, Hago equipment treated The treatment effect of the mud-water mixture brought into the waiting hall after rain is quite good. However, user feedback shows that its operation interface is relatively complicated, there is a certain training threshold for operators, and some wearing parts have to be imported from Germany, and the maintenance cycle is relatively long. This is a big concern for waiting hall operators who pursue high efficiency and low downtime. In contrast, domestic brands have obvious advantages in ease of use and supply chain response speed.
