New ergonomic hiking harness maximizes comfort and mobility
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Tennant Company (NYSE: TNC), a world leader in designing, manufacturing
and marketing solutions that help create a cleaner, safer, healthier
world, has added four new backpack vacuums to its full line of vacuums,
providing a vacuum solution for almost every environment. The Tennant
V-BP-6, V-BP-10, Nobles Aspen™-6 and Aspen™-10 are designed for
professional cleaners to make vacuuming easier, more comfortable and,
ultimately, more productive. Studies have shown that backpack vacuums
can double the operator productivity as compared to using a traditional
upright or canister model, addressing one of the highest ranking
concerns facing facility managers.

“We’ve incorporated several design improvements to these new backpack
vacuums to enhance performance, comfort and ultimately, productivity for
the operators,” said Karin Overstreet, Senior Director of Global Product
Management at Tennant Company. “Our premium Sidewinder® Kit
lends a better alternative to the traditional push-pull wands and the
new Tennant and Nobles vacs offer better water lift than leading
competitors.”
These enhanced backpack vacuums are designed with comfort and safety in
mind, featuring a hiking harness designed by Deuter®, the
world leader in hiking backpacks. The Deuter harness can fully adjust to
operator’s size and offers a breathable mesh to reduce operator exertion
and minimize heat on the operator’s back. Other benefits of the new
