How Used Cleaning Machinery Cuts Cost and Carbon Footprints

In today’s world, every business is looking for ways to do more with less – less money, waste, and environmental impact. When it comes to cleaning and maintenance, one smart solution often overlooked is buying high-quality used cleaning machinery.

We’ve seen more and more companies make the switch to reconditioned and used industrial cleaning machines as part of their sustainability and cost-saving strategy – and for good reason.

Big Savings Without Cutting Corners

A brand-new scrubber dryer, sweeper or pressure washer can represent a significant investment. Used machines, on the other hand, offer immediate cost savings of up to 40–60% compared to new models – without compromising on quality or performance.

Every used machine we sell at Clemas undergoes a thorough service, including inspection, testing, and replacement of worn components where necessary. The result? A reliable, fully functional machine for a reduced cost.

It’s not about buying cheap – it’s about buying smart.

A Sustainable Choice for Modern Businesses

Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword anymore; it’s the direction we’re moving in. Choosing used cleaning machinery directly supports the circular economy – the principle of keeping products and materials in use for as long as possible.

By investing in used and refurbished machines, businesses:

• Reduce manufacturing demand (and the energy required to produce new machines)
• Prevent older equipment from ending up in landfill
• Lower their overall carbon footprint

For organisations reporting on ESG goals or following ISO 14001 environmental management standards, this simple purchasing decision can make a measurable difference.

Proven Reliability You Can Trust

Some buyers worry that “used” means “worn out.” At Clemas, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Each machine we sell – from Tennant scrubber dryers to IPC sweepers – is meticulously serviced and tested by our in-house expert engineers.

We only offer machines that meet our strict criteria, and we always to provide demonstrations or advice on which model best fits your requirements.

Extending Machine Lifetime

When a cleaning machine is serviced and reused or refurbished, its operational life is extended by years. That not only saves money but also conserves the energy and resources that would otherwise go into manufacturing a new one.

It’s a win–win: less waste, less cost, more value.
