Multi Task Sweeping
Versatile, high performance machines designed to undertake a variety of airside cleansing tasks, Johnston's Multi-task airport sweepers' modular design enables you to specify a unit to meet your precise application.

High Speed Sweeping

This delivers outstanding runway, taxiway and apron sweeping at up to 40 km/h. The full width (2500mm) suction nozzles also enable accidental liquid spill & glycol recovery at up to 25,000sq. metres/hour.

Glycol/fluid recovery
