half of the energy it needs from renewable sources, produced by two photovoltaic installations.
Clean energy for the future.
We use renewable energy.
Less CO2 emissions.
Life cycle assessment.
The power of steam irons out
even the most stubborn
wrinkles.
Water transformed into steam
neutralizes dirt, dust mites and
bacteria without chemicals.
A special vortex of water

Steam, with no minerals or electrical conductivity, neutralizes the static charge of dust particles.
The special Polti boilers transform simple tap water into
steam at a high temperature and under high pressure (75
psig).
75 PSIG
(5 BAR)
In the form of steam, the water is able to provide a totally natural sanitizing force and a cleaning power that not
even all chemical detergents can equal.
4
Heat allows steam to detach and
dissolve dirt, freeing and capturing
all dirt particles with its passage:
grease particles, germs, bacteria and
dust mites. The dust mites that so often cause allergies cannot survive
Vaporetto’s and Ecosteamvac’s high
temperature and pressure.
All the dirt and grease that is detached is collected by the cloths used with the accessories, which
can then be machine washed.
Use EcoSteamVac to vacuum all the dirt dissolved
by the power of steam.
Polti steam is a dry steam which leaves the house
perfectly clean and dry.

SUCTION:
THERE IS NO FILTER MORE EFFECTIVE THAN WATER
AGAINST DUST AND DUST MITES.
EcoSteamVac has a sophisticated water-based filter
that does not simply vacuum the dust.
It also retains 99.5% of it, including pollen and dust
mites. The extraordinary “Eco-Active” water filter
works by generating a special vortex of water that
pushes the dust towards the bottom of the tank and
keeps it inside, without dispersion of any kind.
CLEANER AIR
The air is vacuumed then passes through three more
filters, the last of which is the washable HEPA filter.
It catches impurities, pollen and dust mites, leaving the
air much healthier.
CERTIFIED FILTERING
The prestigious “British Allergy Foundation” has given
EcoSteamVac its seal of approval for the effectiveness
of this product in eliminating dust mites.
Try to think how it is possible to separate the dust and
dirt from the water?
This is what makes EcoSteamVac different from any other vacuum
system on the market.
DRY, WET AND LIQUID DIRT
EcoSteamVac is a multi-purpose and functional appliance since, unlike most traditional vacuum cleaners, it
is also capable of vacuuming liquids.
Eco-Active Filter exploits the power of water and is the “green core”
of this system that makes the appliance ecological and advanced.
Briefly, what fights dust in the best possible way is the most natural,
traceable and inexpensive resource of all: water.
A revolution that starts out from nature.

Now the power and heat of Vaporetto and Vaporetto
EcoSteamVac steam have finally provided us with the ultimate

Steam Disinfector is the new accessory for connection to Vaporetto or
EcoSteamVac* for sanitizing surfaces and reducing the presence of
bacteria, fungi, dust mites and
viruses.
Steam Disinfector is a product of
Polti’s experience in medical field
with the class 2A medical device
“Polti Sani System” for professional
use.
Just like the professional appliance,
Steam Disinfector has a controlled expansion heat exchange device which overheats
steam generated in the Vaporetto or Ecosteamvac boiler to a temperature up to 356°F.
In this way steam becomes
“overheated dry saturated steam” capable of sanitizing.

Cambridge University has found that Polti steam eliminates
98% of dust mites from carpets or mattresses and cuts allergens by 86% (whereas conventional vacuum cleaners eliminated only 57% of dust mites and 46% of allergens).

With Polti technology, everyone can count on top quality steam and therefore quick, precise, better ironing.
Vaporella was created more than 30 years ago from the wonderful idea of
introducing professional ironing into the home. Success is immediate.
Year after year, Vaporella has won over consumers throughout the world,
offering everybody the chance to make ironing easy and obtain professional
results.
the home ironing technology.
✔ The secret to professional results
lies in using steam pressure to
straighten fibres perfectly, right away.
The secret to obtaining
outstanding results lies in
the steam quality.
✔ That’s why Vaporella plates have
numerous holes concentrated at the
tip of the plate. This permits higher
steam pressure so that the steam
comes out dry and powerful.
It’s the pressure of the steam that irons
the fabrics. With Vaporella, you only
pass over the fabric once: the part
with the steam holes straightens out
wrinkles by injecting steam, while the
rest of the plate makes the effect of
ironing permanent.
This is why the steam holes are
concentrated at the tip of the iron.
And this is why it takes
you only half the time to do
your ironing.

STEAM at the right temperature: neither too dry, as this would spoil fabrics,
or too damp, which would wet them.
STEAM at high pressure capable of passing rapidly through
the fibres in the fabric and obtaining excellent results right
away.
STEAM powerful enough to iron multiple layers of fabric at
the same time, for quick, easy ironing of sheets, towels,
trousers, etc.
STEAM emitted constantly at regular pressure levels for outstanding results every time.
STEAM concentrated at the tip of the plate and capable of
rapidly impregnating fibres. The back of the plate then dries
the fabric.
STEAM that may be adjusted to adapt to fabrics of all kinds,
from the thickest to the most delicate: jeans, linen, nylon,
synthetics, silk, etc.
Results worthy of a
professional, effortlessly,
