About VERMOP
VERMOP was founded in 1927 by Max and Else Salmon as a mop sewing shop and evolved into an established provider of professional cleaning solutions and systems. Under the VERMOP brand, scrubber-dryers for cleaning industrial and large commercial floors as well as the software solution VERMOP ONe are distributed; the manual cleaning tools such as cleaning trolleys, mop systems including mop covers and cloths are largely continued under the Vileda Professional brand. The machines are based on the TURNADO technology with a brush head that rotates through 360 degrees and the VARIOTECH technology with an automatically extending wing arm for variable working widths; many components are made from durable stainless steel. The product range also includes a broad selection of mop qualities made from microfibre, polyester, cotton, polyamide, polypropylene and viscose. Since July 2023, VERMOP has been part of the Vileda GmbH within the Freudenberg Group (Division Home and Cleaning Solutions). The head office is in Weinheim, with a branch in Wertheim; in addition, there are offices in Gilching and Austria (Langenzersdorf).
