Your Carpets Called! They Want Less Dirt and More Lifespan


Lets make a bold claim: the Clarke EX40 16ST Self-Contained Carpet Extractor is the machine that might actually make you look forward to cleaning day.

This isn't just any carpet cleaner. The EX40 16ST tackles your carpets with 120 PSI of cleaning power while its powerful 3-stage vacuum motor (with impressive 120" water lift) leaves carpets surprisingly dry. Translation? Your areas can get back to business faster without that dreaded "Caution: Wet Floor" sign becoming a semi-permanent fixture.

What really makes this machine shine is how it balances serious cleaning capability with user-friendly design. The One-Touch™ control system means you can literally switch it on, select your cleaning mode, and you're off. No engineering degree required. Plus, with a generous 9-gallon solution tank paired with a 7-gallon recovery tank, you won't be making constant pit stops to refill or empty.

Did we mention this machine is CRI Gold certified? That's not just a fancy sticker. It means this extractor removes between 80-89% of soil from your carpets. Your indoor air quality improves, your carpets last longer, and suddenly that cleaning task you've been avoiding becomes a whole lot more satisfying.

Why cleaning pros choose the EX40 16ST:

  • One-Touch™ Controls make cleaning as simple as switching on and choosing your cleaning mode - no engineering degree required.

  • Self-contained design that lays down solution, scrubs, and recovers dirty water in a single pass, making carpet care smooth and efficient.

  • CRI Gold certified for removing 80-89% of soil from carpets, improving indoor air quality and extending carpet life.

  • Innovative floating brush head creates better contact with surfaces for more effective cleaning and carpets that dry faster.

  • Versatile multi-purpose machine for carpets, upholstery and spot cleaning, with 17 optional accessories available.

  • Generous capacity with 9-gallon solution tank and 7-gallon recovery tank for longer cleaning runs with fewer interruptions.

  • Yellow color-coded components simplify operation, cleanup and maintenance for intuitive use.
