It is highly essential to keep the roads and surroundings spic and span. Cleaner roads are safer roads. Maintaining a road clean involves the removal of litter and leaves from the roads. This also assists keeping the roads safe and the road drains free of objects that could impede water flow.

Regular maintenance of roads reduces air pollution, gives clear visibility and reduces accidents that are caused due to the sedimented debris on roads.

Keeping the earth better by making it clean and waste-free has become a need in the last few years. People have now come to understand the need for cleaner towns and cities as everyone has become conscious of a clean and safe environment.

Road sweepers have been around for a long time in developed countries and were designed to keep cities and towns clean. Sanitation and waste removal has become more mechanised in developed countries. This concept is now slowly picking up in India with the growth of infrastructure and social awareness. Roads in India were swept manually with brooms. Sweeping away garbage, leaves, animal waste and any other kind of visible filth were always done manually for hours. Beyond sweeping, the herculean task was to collect the debris and dispose it. Now with increased awareness on personal hygiene and lack of willingness among the people for such menial jobs, it has now become a necessity and compulsion to resort to mechanised cleaning.

With all the busy streets and fleeing automobiles, it is absolutely impossible to maintain the long stretch of highways and large cities clean with manual workforce. The practical problems involved in maintaining a highway or large area starts with managing the large manpower required and then comes the question of cleaning efficiency and time management. Usage of a road sweeper makes more sense here.

Truck-mounted sweepers built by Roots Multiclean are of the highest quality standards, meeting the toughest cleaning requirement and are known for their functionality and reliability.

Prominent features of Roots truck mounted sweepers: 

• Dust-free efficient sweeping
• Appropriate speed
• Increased hopper capacity for larger area operation
• Robust build to suit tough environments
• Ergonomically placed instruments and control systems for easy operation
• Low maintenance cost.
• Fully sealed hopper with pre-filter system applications (suppresses the dust)
• Has an auxiliary engine for the sweeping and vacuuming
• Two variants - regenerative type for terrain undulations and brush type for smooth road surfaces with low dust.

Function
The machine sweeps debris and directs it into the suction head which collects the dust and dirt particles into the hopper. The machine also effectively collects brick size particles of debris, and certain construction materials and spillages. The wander hose helps to reach all corners and gutters where the machine cannot reach and takes the debris to the hopper. Roots truck-mounted sweepers come with a high-pressure waterjet to aid in cleaning certain places. The high pressure waterjet can also be used to clean the hopper after dumping the collected dirt.

Road sweeping machines are used in a wider application area than just road sweeping. Their versatility allows them to be used on large construction sites as well as industrial sites where the collection of debris is important, for safety and aesthetic reasons. Majority of road sweeping machines are truck-based as they allow sweeping for extended time and accommodate the resulting larger volumes of debris. Road sweeping machines are available in different designs and debris feeding mechanisms to allow usage in different applications and terrains.
