Cleaning Up The Red Tape & White Rooms

For over 25 years, dozens of U.S. government agencies have relied on Nilfisk-Advance America to provide superior vacuums. We have earned a GSA Contract number by demonstrating our high value, understanding of government cleaning needs, and ability to handle bureaucratic issues. We are also an active participant in the Navy’s P-2 (Pollution Prevention) Program, working closely with the Navy for the past 7 years to engineer specialized vacuums for their needs.

What is your biggest cleaning challenge? Is it safely working with hazardous or explosive materials? Staying within the Permissible Exposure Limit? Efficiently completing all government-required purchase documentation? Nilfisk-Advance America can help.

From red tape to white rooms, we make cleaning for government agencies easy and effective. Our experts help you select the right vacuum for your application from our range of rugged, explosion-proof industrial units, sophisticated cleanroom vacuums, and highly specialized models for one-of-a-kind jobs. Plus, only Nilfisk-Advance’s innovative DOP-tested HEPA filtration system captures and retains 99.999% of all contaminants down to .3 microns in size. We do even better with ULPA filters.

We’ve cleaned-up in the following government agencies:

  • Department of Energy
  • Bureau of Printing & Engraving/U.S. Mint
  • Internal Revenue Service
  • National Security Agency
  • NASA
  • Navy Ophthamalic Lab (NOSTRA)
  • National Institute of Standards & Tech
  • U.S. Coast Guard
  • National Institutes of Health
  • U.S. Postal Service
  • U.S. Navy
  • U.S. Air Force & Army

Now, how can we help you?


Proven Performance Advantages

Nilfisk-Advance America’s high-performance vacuums help government agencies of all kinds with advantages no other vacuum supplier can offer, including:

Fire/Explosion protection – to reduce risk when working with dangerous materials, Nilfisk-Advance America offers electric or air-operated models, specially designed for use in explosion hazardous environments.

Contaminant-free exhaust – HEPA* and ULPA** filters ensure a decontaminated exhaust stream for increased employee safety – especially important when sanding of CARC paints from military vehicles.

Rugged construction – built of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, our vacuum models withstand heavy duty environments. Also, heat-resistant accessories including wands, nozzles, and Nomex“ filters withstand extreme temperatures.

Easy-to-clean design – constructed modularly, our vacuum components are easy to access for fast cleaning. And our polished, stainless steel vacuums can be quickly decontaminated with little-to-no trace of contaminant residue.

Simple waste disposal – many of our vacuums feature dropout collection containers, externally cleaned filters, paper bags, ABS collection tank inserts, and polyliners to make waste disposal safer and faster.

Advanced filtration – no particle or speck of dust can escape from our powerful vacuums with multi-stage, HEPA filtration technology captures 99.999% of all particles. Plus oversized main filters slow airflow across a large surface area to easily collect large volumes of debris over extended periods with only minimum preventative maintenance.

User-friendly features – static control accessories, automated filter purging, remote starting, external filter shaker, and many other features reduce maintenance steps and hassle for your team.

Interchangeable engineering – easily expand your Nilfisk and CFM vacuums’ capabilities to meet your changing needs with our full range of compatible accessories and components.
