What is dry steam and how does it work?

Dry steam is an advanced technique that differentiates itself from regular steam by its very low moisture content. Instead of water vapor, which often contributes to wet surfaces, dry steam contains only 3-7% moisture.

This makes cleaning with a steam cleaner that uses dry steam technology an extremely efficient and safe choice for cleaning a wide range of surfaces, without the downsides of wet steam, such as longer drying times or moisture problems.

What makes dry steam so special?

Dry saturated steam stands out from wet steam due to its low moisture content. Wet steam contains a lot of water droplets, which results in longer drying times and an increased risk of mold or bacterial growth. Dry steam, on the other hand, is virtually dry, making the cleaning process faster and leaving no water on surfaces. This makes it ideal for hygienic cleaning and disinfection.

Dry steam cleaners use saturated steam to effectively remove dirt, bacteria, and mold without the use of chemicals. They are highly suitable for a wide range of applications, from floors and furniture to vehicles and industrial machines. Due to the low moisture content, surfaces dry quickly, minimizing the risk of microorganisms. It provides a fast, safe, and efficient way to clean and disinfect.

Benefits of the dry steam cleaner

  • Efficient and safe: The high temperature of the steam creates a shock effect that loosens dirt without damaging materials.
  • Short drying times: By using dry steam, which contains only 3-7% moisture, materials and surfaces dry quickly.
  • Eco-friendly and cost-saving: Dry steam saves water and makes chemical cleaning agents unnecessary in most cases.
  • Multifunctional: Our steam cleaners are suitable for cleaning a wide range of surfaces and materials, from floors and furniture to equipment and vehicles.
  • Disinfection without chemicals: Dry steam is perfect for disinfecting sensitive areas without using aggressive chemical cleaners.

“Our bakery is visibly and palpably cleaner than before we used The Clean Experience’s machine. We were looking for a machine that could effortlessly clean the oven, as well as the plastic ceiling of our bakery. Both rather tricky jobs, because it’s hard to reach.”

"Really clean in half the time!"

Luigi’s Ice cream parlor

Astrid Miltenburg

“We bought the TCE steam vacuum cleaner M8 Athena with electric brush initially for hygienic cleaning of the store floor of our ice cream parlor. It steams, scrubs, vacuums and pulls the floor really clean and almost completely dry. But with all the included attachments we now do more than just the floor. Our stainless steel worktops and ice cream display case also become flawlessly clean and shine like new. Awkward spots are no problem at all. We clean the windows in half the time than before, with better results. We can no longer do without it, because with this steam vacuum cleaner we work cleaner, more efficiently and with a lot of pleasure!”

 

"Steam beats water!"

Steam Up, Eindhoven

Ralf Frickel

“The TCE M8 from The Clean Experience bv, meets our needs because it is a professional but handy machine. A favorite accessory is the electric scrub-shampooing steam brush. It works easily on a rechargeable battery and the result never ceases to positively amaze me. Last but not least, steam is also capable of removing up to 99.99 percent of germs and bacteria from a wide variety of surfaces. Still, nice to know that not only does it look clean, but it really is clean.”
