Insta-Mix Appointed As the Trombia® Silica and PM2,5 Street Dust Sweepers to Quebec and Ontario



European sweeper manufacturer Snowek Ltd. have appointed Insta-Mix, Inc. as the official dealer for PM2,5 certified street sweeper attachments, Trombia sweepers, in Quebec and Ontario. Trombia sweepers were launched in North America, in upstate New York and New England, in 2018 and the dealership of Insta-Mix opens the market in Canada. Trombia attachments became in May 2018 the world’s first and only waterless sweeping attachments that were certified with the EUnited PM2,5 street dust certification at the highest rating with the most advanced suction city sweepers.

Trombia sweeper attachments have been developed to exploit the wheel loaders in year-round street and area maintenance and to assist public and private sector to sweep and collect away the finest dust particles and at the same time optimize their fleets’ idle time. Trombia sweeper attachments have been designed to be completely filter-free by using a globally patented technology combining air-knife dust cleaning, mechanical sweeping, vacuum and cyclone separation. Inside Trombia’s sweeping chamber the sweeping process is carried out fully waterless, which enables contractors to clean and sweep with higher accuracy and perfection in sweeping result.

“We started with demos and presenting the product in upstate New York and New England last summer and following the great demand and feedback in North America, have now started expansion both in the U.S. and the Canadian market. The product was showcased at the National Heavy Equipment Show in Mississauga, Ontario which served as the official marketing launch of the Trombia sweepers in Canada,” said Antti Nikkanen, CEO of Trombia Sweepers.

For pavement contractors Trombia delivers a solution for both heavier debris and millings as well as fine dust with ready-to-pave dry surface. Saved time in water refills and optimizing machinery fleets increases the sweeping efficiency year-round. Investment costs for Trombia sweeper attachments are in the range of $70,000 - $80,000 which is marginal compared to the likes of self-propelled city sweepers with similar-level PM dust sweeping capabilities.

“Excellent fine dust and heavy debris sweeping performance, speed, fully dry sweeping surfaces and marginal downtime without any filters, conveyor belts or suction engines to maintain are the key value propositions of Trombia. In the end it all adds up to an excellent return on investment for both the sweeper as well as the wheel loader that now gets year-round serious road maintenance work,” added Mr. Nikkanen.

Trombia sweepers have now been made available through regional dealerships with Insta-Mix, Inc. in Quebec and Ontario in Canada. In the U.S. products are sold by Monroe Tractor & Implement, Inc. in New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island, and by Beauregard Equipment, Inc. in New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.
Insta-Mix will present the Trombia at the upcoming APOM Technical Day in Mirabel, Quebec, on May 16, and AORS Municipal Trade Show in Chatham, Ontario, on June 5-6.
