With expertise, determination and foresight he grew the company.

Healthcare pro Hepa
The name unequivocally defines the mission of this product: the world's first carpet cleaner with a 5-stages filtration system and Hepa filter. This carpet cleaner was approved by U.S. hospitals, both for its exceptional cleaning efficiency and for its filtering system. This is the first professional model that Lindhaus USA has distributed.

RX Hepa
The ultra-strong professional carpet cleaner model RX has been developed with a three sizes base, 380, 450, 500 mm, a double connection between the base and the suction body, a complete kit of on-board accessories and the same Hepa filtration system of the Healthcare Pro machine. This machine has faithfully maintained the concepts fundamental to Lindhaus (Rotafil motor, quietness, reliability and light weight) becoming the reference model of the top of the range market of the 2000s.

2007
First Scrubber drier
In 2007 after about three years of design, prototyping and testing, the first multifunction floor scrubber-dryer was born: LW 30 pro, LW 38 pro. We created the first lightweight, multifunctional, high-performance professional floor scrubber driers. The construction concept that led us to the important weight reduction at the handle is derived from the previous "Dynamic" study thanks to which we have placed the vacuum motor and the brush motor, both in the base, leaving the free space in the vertical body for the tank placement only. These machines not only wash the floors and dry them perfectly in a single pass with double suction, they can be equipped with an upholstery/glass cleaning kit. Thanks to the features that distinguish this new product, since 2008 with our scrubber-dryers we have been supplier of the Royal Palace in Amsterdam.
2013
New customers in Dubai and London
The Atlantic Hotel in Dubai starts purchasing Lindhaus carpet cleaners from the Dynamic line. In the same year, Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle are cleaned by the large-area professional carpet cleaner LS50 Hybrid.
2015
New customers in Finland
The University of Helsinki (Finland) starts purchasing the LW46 Hybrid professional scrubber-dryer. Three years later in November it will also buy the LB4 L-ion backpack as well as the Robby robot. The Parliament of Finland in Helsinki buys our professional scrubber-dryer LW46 Hybrid and in 2018 also the Robby robot.
2016
Mini vacuum sweeper LS38
A unique machine, entirely covered by an international patent, was born in 2016. It combines the mechanical force of two counter-rotating rollers “twin force” rotating at 2000 rpm to a perfect suction across the full width on both floors and carpets.
2020
Air purifiers and sanitizers
During the Covid period, we reinvented ourselves by creating DepurAir and SterilAir. The former purifies the air through the action of ultraviolet germicidal UV-C LED lamps, while the latter sanitizes the air through the misting of hydrogen peroxide.
2023
