Synopsis

The project called for launching a floor cleaning device for hospitals which used superheated steam at 160 degree celsius and 12 bar, to clean, deodorise, sanitise and effectively kill multi-drug resistant bacteria.

Besides being environment-friendly and sustainable, the final product facilitates effective cleaning under stationary furniture and inaccessible corners and crevices; applied ergonomics and aesthetic design lends the product ease of manoeuvrability, portability, storage and a sleeker, more modernised look as compared to the existing products in the market.
