An automatic shoes cleaning machine, also called a hygiene cleaning station or boot washer, is a stainless-steel unit that automatically cleans and optionally disinfects footwear and/or hands. It typically uses rotating brushes, jets of water and cleaning/disinfectant solution, and sensors to start and stop cycles without manual handling.
The standard construction material is stainless steel 304, chosen for corrosion resistance, durability and suitability for hygienic environments.
Both dimensions and model are customizable. Units can be tailored to fit site space, throughput requirements and whether you need boots only, hands only, or combined washing and disinfection functionality.
Available variants include: hygiene cleaning station with hands and boots washing and disinfection; with boots washing and disinfection; with hand washing and disinfection; and other customised models on request.
When a user places a foot or puts hands into the station, sensors trigger the cycle. Rotating brushes or scrubbing surfaces, combined with timed water/cleaner jets and optional disinfectant dosing, remove soil and sanitize footwear/hand surfaces. Cycle time is configurable based on hygiene requirements.
Typical requirements include a cold water supply, a drain, and an electrical supply for pumps, motors and sensors. Exact power, water flow and drainage specs are customized per model—confirm with the supplier before installation.
Most commercial neutral detergents and EPA/EN-registered disinfectants compatible with stainless steel 304 are suitable. The machine can be configured with dosing systems to handle common disinfectants—check chemical compatibility and required contact time with your supplier.
Regular maintenance includes emptying and cleaning filters/traps, inspecting and replacing worn brushes, checking pumps and seals, flushing lines to prevent buildup, and periodic sanitization of surfaces. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule for intervals and procedures.
Standard safety features include automatic stop/start sensors to prevent entrapment, non-slip brush surfaces or platforms, waterproof electrical enclosures, and rounded edges on stainless steel housings. Additional safety options can be specified.
Throughput depends on configured cycle time and whether it handles hands, boots or both. Typical cycle times range from a few seconds to 30+ seconds—consult the supplier with your required throughput to size and program the unit appropriately.
Yes. Several models include disinfection dosing and contact-time control to provide both washing and disinfection for hands and/or boots. Disinfectant type and concentration are selectable based on your hygiene protocol.
Most suppliers offer installation and commissioning services as an option, including site survey, utility connections, startup, operator training and documentation. Confirm scope and pricing when ordering.
Yes. Common spares and consumables include brushes, seals, pump parts, filters and dosing pumps. Suppliers typically offer spare parts kits and recommended stocking lists—ask for lead times and part numbers.
Certifications vary by model and market. Units are commonly manufactured to meet hygienic design principles and can be supplied to meet relevant local electrical and sanitary standards. Request specific certifications (CE, UL, etc.) when ordering.
