Machine Tile Cleaner

Steam is highly effective at killing bacteria, and a steam cleaner leverages this natural power to sanitize surfaces without harsh chemicals. The science is clear: most bacteria, viruses, and pathogens cannot survive temperatures above 170°F (77°C). A steam cleaner heats water to 212°F (100°C) or higher, converting it into pressurized steam that penetrates porous surfaces, disrupts microbial cell structures, and eliminates up to 99.9% of common bacteria like E. coli and staphylococcus.

 

This makes a steam cleaner ideal for high-touch areas-kitchen counters, bathroom tiles, children's toys-where germs thrive. Unlike chemical cleaners, steam leaves no residue, reducing risks for pets, kids, or those with sensitivities. For maximum effect, the steam needs direct contact with surfaces for 10–15 seconds, ensuring even deep-seated bacteria are neutralized.

 

At our factory, we design steam cleaners to optimize this process. Our models deliver consistent high temperatures and controlled pressure, ensuring thorough disinfection while protecting delicate materials. Whether tackling daily messes or deep cleaning, our steam cleaners harness steam's natural germ-killing power, making them a reliable choice for a healthier, cleaner home.
