Sweeper technology at a glance

Designed for roads and highways, the air-knife cuts through packed grime, gravel, and litter. Its sealed, dual-chamber head ensures deep, edge-to-edge pickup-far beyond what brooms or pure-vacuum machines can deliver.

On busy roads, VacuGuard ensures dust stays contained, even at high sweeping speeds. It maintains negative pressure inside the head, eliminating blowouts and keeping the environment clean without extra energy use.
For high-dust roads and urban zones, CycloShield filters out grit, moisture, and PM10 particles across six stages, ensuring reliable dust control and sustained suction performance on long routes.
Designed for long routes and changing weather, Pulse Clean prevents filter clogging with timed reverse-air bursts, maintaining strong suction even in high-humidity, high-dust environments.
For demanding road operations, SwiftServe ensures fast, ground-level access to all key components, minimizing downtime and maximizing time on the move.

Applications

Large Municipalities & Urban Corporations

Large cities face rising waste, traffic, and public health risks. Municipalities need a road sweeper with a high-efficiency vacuum that clears everything from dust and leaves to bottles, pebbles, and more. A machine that delivers a fine, consistent finish that manual sweeping can’t match.

Overflowing garbage and clogged drains aren’t only unsightly, but also pose a threat to safety, health, and the environment. Blocked drains lead to waterlogging, flooded roads, and traffic standstills, especially during rains, disrupting daily life and damaging public infrastructure. It is essential to have a machine that runs in all seasons and conditions.

Exposure to biohazards, dust, and sharp waste puts sanitation workers at serious risk. Stratus road sweeper addresses this with an onboard litter picker that safely handles garbage heaps and a vacuum system that eliminates dust clouds during cleaning.

In large cities, sweeping routes are long and dump yards are often far away. Therefore, machines require high-capacity hoppers and a mid-dump option to continue operating longer without interruption.

Thanks to its sedan-like maneuverability and reverse sweeping capabilities, the Stratus road sweeper easily navigates narrow lanes and congested areas, maintaining clean and safe roads in high-footfall zones, even under tight schedules and unpredictable debris loads.

Maintaining highways is essential for the safety of life and property. To keep fast-moving roads clear of sand, gravel, litter, and oil spills to prevent accidents and maintain smooth flow. All this and more needs to be achieved. 

Stratus goes beyond high-speed sweeping, its wide cleaning path and powerful vacuum remove large debris efficiently at an impressive speed.

Highway cleaning needs more than just speed cleaning and debris removal. The machine has to handle all types of cleaning scenarios, from dust, silt, trash, and much more, without manual labor dependency and by mechanical means. Stratus ensures compliance with mechanized cleaning mandates with a multi-capability function.

Large industries handle a staggering amount of raw materials and experience spills during unloading and transfer, creating constant debris that needs to be removed to avoid obstruction or equipment damage. Making sweeper operations frequent

Large industrial campuses, such as steel plants and cement yards, require comprehensive solutions that can handle extended operations, high waste capacity, and minimize dump trips, making a large hopper a necessity. 

Environmental and safety audits often include site hygiene and visual cleanliness assessments, and industrial clients frequently host global partners, customers, and investors on-site. A clean, well-maintained plant demonstrates operational discipline, safety, and effective management, ultimately contributing to brand value.

Cleanliness across campuses is critical not just for aesthetics but for health, hygiene, and safety. Litter buildup in high-footfall areas can lead to clogged drains, pest issues, and sanitation risks if not cleared regularly.

Seasonal variations like dry leaf shedding, event-related waste, or post-rain debris can overwhelm cleaning teams. If left unattended, this buildup can clog drains, attract pests, and create breeding grounds for mosquitoes, leading to serious sanitation challenges.

Litter pickers like Jatayu Super are used for efficient, contactless cleanup, helping campuses maintain a clean, healthy environment with fewer resources and faster response times..
