HOST Aridex Mini Upholstery Cleaning Machine - AX120/AX240

The HOST Aridex Mini is a professional upholstery cleaning machine designed for cleaners working in homes, offices, movie theaters, automobiles, buses, trains, subway cars, and aircraft interiors. Its narrow frame makes it especially useful in tight spaces and narrow aisles where larger upholstery cleaning machines may be difficult to maneuver.

The Aridex uses a low-moisture dry foam cleaning process. When combined with HOST detergent, the machine creates a specialized dry foam that is worked into upholstery surfaces using counter-rotating brushes. The foam encapsulates dirt, which can then be removed through vacuuming. This low-moisture approach helps minimize drying time and avoids leaving sticky residue behind.

The powered counter-rotating brush system performs the agitation while the operator simply guides the brush head along the upholstery. The Aridex is available in 110V and 240V configurations and includes a measuring gauge and fill funnel.
