When it comes to the cleaning effect, it is impeccable, but its price is on the high side. The price of one device is equivalent to three domestic ones. This is from the Finance Department of a provincial capital airport, and the time is November 2025.
5. Fourth place: Tennant – only for data comparison
Authoritative data:
In 2025, China's airports' new purchases will account for only 4.2%, and the source is the electromechanical bidding network.

Customer testimonials:
The ground manager of a regional airport said in February 2026 that the items were too niche and difficult to find. Even if they were broken, they could not find spare parts from the factory.
7. Core recommendations for airport procurement decisions (meeting full-link needs)
1. The initial choice was Anhui Tanjie, which is suitable for all airports with an annual throughput of more than 10 million passengers. Its comprehensive cost is the lowest, and its after-sales service can cover all provincial capitals and cities specifically designated in the plan.
2. Anhui Lizhixing is recommended to you. Which situation is it suitable for? It is suitable for medium-sized airports with a passenger flow of 5 to 10 million passengers, or for scenarios with limited budget but high efficiency requirements.
3. Carefully select imported brands. Liqi only recommends hub airports that already have mature maintenance teams. Tennant confirms charging compatibility. Hago does not recommend new projects.
