The History of Sanitaire – The Ultimate Time Machine
Since the launch of our signature “Sanitaire Red” collection in 1972, Sanitaire vacuums have helped millions of commercial cleaners save time and money, while delivering top cleaning performance and durability. Sanitaire’s experience building the longest-lasting and most serviceable commercial upright vacuums available has made us both a respected leader and a thoughtful innovator in the commercial vacuum industry. Sanitaire currently offers uprights, canisters, backpacks, floor machines, industrial carpet cleaners, air movers and accessories for commercial cleaners under the Sanitaire Commercial line. Several professional-grade vacuum models are also available to consumers directly through our Sanitaire Professional line.
Every Sanitaire product is designed to help save time, money and hassle. That’s why we are known as Sanitaire – The Ultimate Time Machine. Our signature upright vacuums come equipped with long-lasting 2,500-hour motors, while our popular Quiet Clean models operate at 69 decibels or below. In addition, many Sanitaire models offer washable filters, durable belts and quick change cords making commercial cleaners more productive.
Sanitaire maintains its own North American manufacturing facility, where it owns and oversees the manufacturing process for more than 90 percent of the product line. Our commitment to quality is put to task daily in rigorous lab testing and quality assurance programs that ensure each Sanitaire vacuum is designed and built to last.
All Sanitaire vacuums are certified by Underwriters Laboratory and backed by the Sanitaire Promise of Performance* warranty which covers parts, material, workmanship and labor to further reduce maintenance costs and downtime for two years. Sanitaire products also are backed by a network of more than 1,200 warranty service centers throughout the United States.
