Ground-breaking
solutions for a new decade of cleaning
A comprehensive 2010 offer of new cleaning equipment from Prochem Europe
combines high performance with compactness and increasingly
sophisticated chemical solutions.
At the top of the technology offer, the company's extensive offer of
truck-mounted extraction machines is further enhanced with the launch of
the new Peak GTX dual operator unit.
Peak practice
Powered by a durable liquid-cooled 25 hp Kohler engine, the Peak GTX
provides high performance, durability and simplified maintenance. The
patented heat exchange system offers plenty of heat for single or dual
wand operation while the Tri-lobe blower provides quiet vacuum power up
to 120 m (400 ft) from the vehicle.
Perfect for commercial cleaning or de-flooding work, the Peak is
probably the ultimate in truck-mounted cleaning power in the UK right
now, says the company.

Blazing...
For those upgrading from portable electric machines or even starting a
cleaning business for the first time, the compact, simple and affordable
Blazer GT is the perfect solution.
The latest development to the Blazer brand still runs durable components
and Prochem's patented heat exchange system but now on a newly
simplified design on a corrosion-resistant frame to offer powerful
vacuum, solution pressure and instant heat to a new 4-jet carpet wand,
while extra hose for 2010 means the unit can work at a distance of 76 m
(250 ft) from the vehicle.
The Blazer GT can be set up in a matter of minutes, after when carpet
cleaning is continuous thanks to fully automatic water and chemical
feed, while even continuous emptying is possible with the optional waste
pump-out system.
The self-contained Blazer GT is even more so with its optional
sub-mounted 227 litre fresh water supply tank offering total
self-sufficiency for users in areas such as airports and residential
cleaning.

...Comet

Prochem has not neglected its portable range this year either and for
sheer ease of operation, the new Comet is hard to beat.
This low-cost, self-contained carpet extraction cleaner weighs only 18
kilos making it light enough for anyone to handle, while its compact
body design and fold-down handle makes it easy to transport and store.
Small enough to clean in tight spaces and corners, the Comet still
boasts bags of power to perform well in any situation.
A revolutionary bladder design eliminates the need to pour solution into
the machine. Operators only need to fill the bucket, set it on the
machine, close the lid and begin cleaning. The machine is simple to use
with just one on-off switch and easy to maintain: just remove two safety
screws and the machine opens like a clamshell for fast service.
Additional features include patented self-adjusting, self-levelling
brush, handle adjustment to operator height, patented lift-off bucket
for easy filling and emptying, see-through recovery dome and fold-down
handle for easy-storage.

clean carpets and floors all in one machine: the new PRO 35.

Also new to the Prochem
2010 technology range is a versatile two speed single disc rotary
machine for bonnet buffing and shampooing of carpets and stripping,
scrubbing, buffing and polishing of floors.

The Floor Pro
incorporates an ergonomic handle with lever operated positional control
and a two-speed switch for 154 rpm low speed scrubbing and stripping and
308 rpm high speed buffing and polishing all types of floors.
A 430mm 17" floor pad and bonnet drive board is also included with the
machine and a 12 litre solution tank and scrubbing, polishing and
shampoo brushes are optional extras.

Accessories to the Prochem
range include the Rondomatic 5 litre Sprayer. Suitable for
applying carpet pre-sprays, deodorizers and protectors, this unit
features an impact resistant polyethylene tank with Viton® seals,
stainless steel pump rod and spray lance, safety valve and 8004 fanjet
nozzle.

For quick drying of carpet, furniture, floors and flooded areas, nothing
beats the new lower cost Aqua-Dri professional air mover.
Lightweight and stackable, it boasts a heavy duty 1/2hp 3-speed motor,
super efficient 9.5" blower wheel, and generates 2400cfm in a compact
easy to handle but heavy duty construction. It also has plenty of reach
thanks to a 7.6m (25ft) power cable 230V CE.

Chemical offer
Prochem Europe is widely regarded for its chemicals offer, both in terms
of new solutions and enhancements to existing lines.
S775 Extraction Plus is a new and improved formula replacing
Extraction Pro, the popular professional low foam cleaning concentrate
for use in carpet soil extraction machines.
With new pH boosters to help break down heavy soil and grease and
optical brighteners to enhance the visual finish of the cleaned carpet,
Extraction Plus solution is clear and stable at high temperatures and
dries to a powder residue.
It incorporates a new low foaming surfactant system which helps prevent
foam build-up on the carpet and in the machine recovery tank. Extraction
Plus is suitable for use on most types of carpets, subject to proper
pre-testing as directed.
The healthcare market is an enormously important user of Prochem
products. Developed exclusively for it, B112 Neutra-Soft® is an
all-in-one extraction cleaner, urine neutraliser deodoriser and rinse
agent for use in carpet and upholstery soil extraction machines.
Neutra-Soft® eliminates urine deposits and odours by dual action acidic
neutralisation of ammonia residues and odour pairing of complex malodour
molecules.
It leaves carpets and fabrics clean and soft and the new surfactant
technology in the formula eliminates re-soiling. Furthermore, it is a
WOOLSAFE Approved maintenance product for wool carpets and rugs.
Prochem's with one of the best known-names in carpet
protection is enhanced by a new ready-to-use protective treatment that
keeps carpets looking cleaner longer and provides protection from soils
and spills.

TM2401 Scotchgard™
Carpet Protector can be applied to most types of carpeting and can
be applied with equal success to new or freshly cleaned carpet that is
either damp or dry. It provides a protective barrier to resist soil and
make spot-cleaning of forced-in stains easy with conventional
techniques.
These latest technology and chemical introductions and developments
assert Prochem Europe's continued dominance in the UK's professional
cleaning products marketplace.
Says the company's UK & International Sales Manager, Paul Robinson: "Prochem
has a long-held reputation for spearheading innovation in the
marketplace and it can only be reassuring for our valued customer base
to see us continuing to offer a high quality front line product offer
combining optimum performance with affordability in what we recognise as
a challenging marketplace."
