Mining sweepers & scrubbers

Keep mine sites, processing plants and mining facilities clean, safe and compliant. Sweeper.com.au supplies and services industrial floor sweepers and scrubbers built for Australian mine sites, from haul roads to processing plants and maintenance workshops.

Floor cleaning equipment for mine sites and mining facilities

Mine sites generate some of the most demanding cleaning conditions of any industrial environment. Heavy dust on haulage roads, fine ore particulates in processing facilities, chemical residues in wash bays, and compacted grit across maintenance workshops all require dedicated mechanical cleaning solutions. Left unmanaged, that accumulation creates serious WHS hazards for workers, accelerates wear on hard floor surfaces, and risks non-compliance with dust management obligations under Australian mining regulations.

Sweeper.com.au supplies industrial mining equipment purpose-built for these environments; delivering a complete mining cleaning solution from PM10 dust suppression on haul roads to hard floor scrubbing in processing plants, keeping mine sites clean, safe and compliant.

Why mining operators choose ASC machines

  • PM10 dust suppression as standard ASC sweepers operate dust-free, eliminating hazardous airborne particles and achieving PM10 dust control standards across all surface types. This reduces worker exposure to respirable dust and supports compliance with Safe Work Australia dust management requirements.
  • Built for the toughest materials ASC machines are engineered to collect heavy industrial debris including coal, aluminium, steel, lead, bauxite, copper concentrate and cement. From fine ore dust to coarse aggregate, machines are specified and configured to match the material type and site conditions.
  • Covers road-scale and facility-scale cleaning Whether sweeping 40 kilometres of remote haul roads or maintaining processing plant floors, ASC offers a range of machine sizes; from compact walk-behind models to large ride-on sweepers; to suit virtually any mine site application.
  • Service life of 12 to 20 years ASC machines are engineered for durability in heavy-duty industrial use. Simple daily maintenance keeps machines performing across every shift, with an average service life of 12 to 20 years in mining and resource environments.
  • Multiple power options for any environment Battery, LPG and diesel-powered models are available. Battery-powered machines suit enclosed processing facilities and maintenance workshops. Diesel models handle large outdoor haul roads and external hardstand areas where emissions are not a constraint.
  • Flexible purchase and hire options Buy outright, hire for a project or shutdown period, or explore finance options. ASC works with mining operators, site contractors and facilities managers across Australia.

    A commercial mining system for every zone on your site

    Different zones on a mine site have different cleaning requirements. ASC industrial mining equipment is matched to each area.

    Machinery sheds and equipment bays

    Machinery shed floors carry heavy vehicle traffic and accumulate significant debris throughout every season. ASC ride-on sweepers cover large shed floor areas quickly, collecting sand, dirt and organic matter in a single pass without disrupting equipment storage or maintenance activity.

    Grain storage and handling areas

    Grain dust and chaff accumulate continuously in storage and handling facilities. ASC sweepers with vacuum and filtration systems control dust at source, maintaining compliant air quality and clean floor conditions in grain depot environments throughout harvest and storage periods.

    Food-grade packing and produce handling areas

    Packing shed floors require sanitising as well as sweeping to meet food safety standards. ASC wet scrubbers clean, sterilise and dry packing shed floors in a single pass, maintaining the hygiene standard required for food-grade certification without extended downtime between cleaning cycles.

    Farm yards and outdoor hardstand

    Outdoor farm areas carry heavy vehicle and equipment traffic and accumulate significant debris across large surface areas. ASC outdoor ride-on sweepers clear yards, loading areas and hardstand surfaces efficiently, maintaining safe access conditions across active agricultural operations.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is the best sweeper or scrubber for a mine site?

    The right machine depends on the area being cleaned and the type of debris involved. For outdoor haul roads and large hardstand areas, ride-on sweepers with dust suppression are the standard choice. For processing plant floors and enclosed facilities, battery-powered scrubbers remove ore dust and residue without generating fumes or secondary dust. Sweeper.com.au can assess your site and specify the right combination of equipment for each zone.

    How do ASC sweepers achieve PM10 dust control on mine sites?

    ASC sweepers use an enclosed collection system with integrated water-based dust suppression to prevent fine particulates from becoming airborne during the sweeping process. This captures respirable dust at source rather than redistributing it, meeting PM10 dust control standards required across Australian mine sites under state and federal WHS legislation.

    Can I use a battery-powered sweeper in an underground or enclosed mining facility?

    Yes. Battery-powered sweepers and scrubbers produce no exhaust emissions and are specifically suited to enclosed environments including underground facilities, processing plants and enclosed maintenance workshops. They operate quietly and without fumes, maintaining acceptable air quality for workers in confined or poorly ventilated spaces.

    Can I hire a mining sweeper or scrubber rather than buy?

    Yes. ASC offers hire options for shutdown periods, project-based requirements, or for mining operators wanting to trial equipment before committing to a purchase.

    Does Sweeper.com.au service mining cleaning equipment across Australia?

    Yes. ASC is an authorised service provider for the equipment we supply. Our technicians are based across Australia and provide scheduled maintenance, breakdown response and parts supply to mine sites including remote locations.

    What are the WHS and dust management requirements for mine site cleaning?

    Under Australian WHS legislation and state mining regulations, operators are required to manage airborne dust as a hazardous substance and maintain work areas free from slip, trip and fall hazards. Regular mechanical sweeping and scrubbing with dust-suppression-equipped machines supports compliance with Safe Work Australia guidelines and site-specific dust management plans.
