Low-moisture systems utilize synthetic detergents that crystallize into powder form as they dry, encapsulating and trapping soil particles. This powder, along with the embedded dirt, is then readily removed through vacuuming. A typical example involves applying the cleaning solution using a rotary machine equipped with absorbent pads or brushes.
This method offers several advantages, including reduced drying times, minimized water usage, and less disruption to building occupants. It’s particularly well-suited for commercial settings requiring frequent cleaning and rapid turnaround. Historically, this technology emerged as a more sustainable alternative to traditional hot water extraction, addressing concerns about excessive water consumption and lengthy drying periods.
