In 1969, Entrepreneur and Carpet Cleaner Michael Palmer saw another cleaner who had attempted to build a truckmounted carpet cleaner. Mike was convinced he could do better. By 1971, Mike had introduced HydraMaster truckmounts to the carpet cleaning industry and was one of the first companies to sell truckmounts nationwide.
For over 45 years HydraMaster has been the innovation, reliability, and performance leader in the manufacture and support of truckmounted equipment. These years of experience have now elevated truckmount technology and resulted in substantial gains in simplicity, durability, and longevity. HydraMaster truckmounts are designed to provide consistent high heat, powerful water recovery, and withstand the abuse of multiple operators, and are much easier to operate. In 2009, HydraMaster became part of Nilfisk, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of cleaning equipment. Today, HydraMaster is the industry leader in manufacturing truckmount cleaning systems, accessories and chemicals. For over 4 decades, HydraMaster has stood behind its products 100%.
Over the years, HydraMaster has expanded its product lines to include portable extractors, restoration equipment, restorative cleaning and deodorizing chemical solutions, innovative tools and accessories. Our equipment is hand built by skilled crafts persons in our factory in Mukilteo, Washington in the United States of America. HydraMaster truckmounts are sold, supported and serviced worldwide. HydraMaster is one of the leading equipment brands in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan and China.
In 2018, HydraMaster was acquired by Josh Howard from its owner, Nilfisk, and the company looks forward to re-establishing its entrepreneurial spirit.
