Strahman Valves’ new HydroSwivel Sweeper is a multi-functioning cleaning tool with the ability to clean most surfaces.

The sweeper is made of stainless steel and acetal polymer and has interchangeable tips with varying flow rates. It also has a high-impact thermally protective cover and full 3600 range of motion. It is supplied with a bronze Mini M-70 spray nozzle which can be removed and also used as a stand-alone spray nozzle for other applications.

The HydroSwivel Sweeper is suitable for a wide range of applications including pharmaceutical, food processing, dairy, meat processing, supermarkets, and restaurants.

Users can choose from two options with three or six tips, which are all interchangeable for a range of flow rates, and it features a fully articulated patent pending HydroSwivel joint which provides excellent maneuverability in and under hard-to-reach places.

The sweeper uses high-velocity water at normal domestic supply pressures to effectively clean most surfaces with minimal impact. It cleans with a spray pattern directed to the floor for deep cleaning of grout without over-spray to walls, and without the damaging effects of other high-pressure systems.

Packaging News

The World Packaging Organisation has named 234 winners for the WorldStar Packaging Awards 2026, which were selected from 481 entries submitted across 36 countries.

ACOR is calling on the Government to urgently introduce packaging reforms or risk the collapse of Australia’s plastic recycling sector and face millions of tonnes of plastic waste polluting the environment.

As 2025 draws to a close, it is clear the packaging sector has undergone one of its most consequential years in over a decade. Consolidation at the top, restructuring in the middle, and bold innovation at the edges have reshaped the industry’s horizons. At the same time, regulators, brand owners and recyclers have inched closer to a new circular operating model, even as policy clarity remains elusive.
