Our Story
HOW IT ALL BEGAN …
Factory Cleaning Equipment, Inc. had its start in November 1994 out of Aurora, IL. After witnessing the struggle of cleaning dust and debris, Rick and Ellen had the realization that they could change the way people clean their floors. With this in mind, the pair set out in their teal green Astro minivan with a Factory Cat
Today, Factory Cleaning Equipment, Inc. has grown to become one of the largest suppliers of floor sweepers and scrubbers, with locations nationwide, including Illinois, North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Georgia, California and Colorado. But through the years, it has always stuck by that initial driving force - to revolutionize the way people clean their floors.
Rick and Ellen’s dream of owning a successful floor cleaning equipment business came true, yet they never forgot the countless partners and customers that were there in the beginning and helping them every step of the way. That is why the company’s philosophy will always be “Big enough to serve your needs, Small enough to know your name.”
