If you manage facilities, operate orbital scrubber machines, or lead an EVS or BSC team, you know one truth: not all autoscrubber pads are created equal. Traditional abrasive pads can leave floors scratched, unevenly polished, or prematurely worn—especially high-value flooring surfaces like luxury vinyl tile or LVT.
If you manage facilities, operate floor machines, or lead an EVS or BSC team, you know one truth: not all autoscrubber pads are created equal. Traditional abrasive pads are not suited to clean today’s textured flooring, and can leave floors dirty, scratched, unevenly polished, or prematurely worn- ultimately reducing the lifespan of the floor.
But a new solution is raising the bar across the cleaning industry. Contec’s award-winning Premira® Microfiber Autoscrubber Pads are redefining what’s possible in automated floor cleaning—delivering deeper cleaning, safer performance, and a simpler, more streamlined pad program.
Why This Innovation Matters
With more facilities moving to LVT, floor care teams need tools that protect their investment and produce a visibly superior clean.
Contec’s microfiber autoscrubber pads answer that need with a holistic system engineered specifically for today’s high-performance floors. Compatible with virtually all autoscrubber and orbital scrubber machines, this system works seamlessly across brands and machine sizes.
What Sets These Microfiber Autoscrubber Pads Apart?
1. Superior Cleaning Power—Even in LVT Embossing
Traditional pads were designed to clean flat, unembossed flooring. With LVT taking center stage as the dominant flooring new and renovation installations, there’s a need for a more sophisticated textile that reaches into the recesses of this embossing to remove dirt and debris.
Premira® Disposable Microfiber reaches deep into textured flooring to remove dirt that abrasive pads leave behind. This isz especially critical for LVT, where debris gets trapped in embossing.
The result?
- A more consistent clean
- Better soil removal
- Healthier, more hygienic floors
2. Safer for Floors — No Abrasion, No Damage
Abrasive pads clean by abrading or scratching the surface of the floor. While this is effective on hard surfaces without texture, it proves damaging to LVT. This abrasion caused damage to flooring with factory-coated finished.

Unlike traditional abrasive pads that can scratch or abrade surfaces over time, these microfiber autoscrubber pads:
- Will not abrade LVT
- Preserve the floor’s original textured surface, mitigating spill-and-fall possibilities
- Reduce long-term maintenance costs
- Protect expensive flooring investments
For facilities with high-value flooring, this is a game-changer.
3. A Holistic Solution for All Hard Floors
From LVT to rubber to poured floors, Contec’s autoscrubber pads are engineered as a universal solution—no guessing which pad to use for each floor type.
This simplifies training, reduces confusion, and improves cleaning consistency across teams and shifts.
4. Smaller Storage Footprint
Traditional pad programs require multiple pads—red, white, blue, green, black—each for a specific task.
Contec eliminates this clutter with a streamlined, high-performance microfiber system that:
- Reduces storage space
- Simplifies ordering
- Prevents “wrong pad” mistakes
Contec’s Microfiber Autoscrubber pads last up to 60,000 square feet and take up about 10 percent of the space required by traditional pad storage. Because these microfiber autoscrubber pads transition from one flooring type to another, it also eliminates the opportunity for user error from having to change out the pad between floor types.
5. Designed to Work With Contec’s Patented Connector Pad System
Contec’s patented Connector Pad attaches securely to the pad driver of any major autoscrubber brand.
The microfiber pad attaches to—and removes from—the connector pad with ease, giving teams:
- Faster changeovers
- More secure pad attachment
- Improved operator productivity
A system built for real-world efficiency.
