With branches located across the country, ASC is the leading national supplier of construction site cleaning equipment in Australia.
Whether your business requires a brand new floor sweeper or an industrial scrubber rental, ASC is proud to be a “total solutions” company with a wide range of ever-changing machines available.
For instance, we’re proud to offer the ASC MEP Eureka – also affectionately referred to as the Evo.
This walk-behind machine is the world’s first manual push sweeper designed to have its own dust control – meaning it won’t blow debris and doesn’t require batteries or electric motors to achieve this incredible result.
Over 40 years in the making, it’s a worthy investment for building and construction sites which require machinery to pick up cement and gypsum dust. Mining warehouses, transport companies and petrol stations can also benefit from the nifty device.
Another key example of our renowned construction cleaning equipment is the ASC Eureka M6 Sweeper.
A completely hydraulically controlled high dump sweeper, the device is designed to effectively sweep congested areas and large floor spaces courtesy of its container lift, brushes and vacuum fan.
Built to last, the Eureka M6 Sweeper will withstand 20 years of use and is ideal for construction, mining and agricultural usage.

From how Sydney’s award-winning builder Trend Constructions Pty Ltd has been using the ASC M2 to keep sites free from dust to Platinum Plant and Equipment Hire’s newfound love for the ASC MEP Eureka, we share updates on our clients below.
