About the Ruwac USA Elephant

Long ago, Ruwac USA chose the elephant to be the company emblem.  After all, the elephant is nature’s own super heavy-duty wet/dry vacuum system.  They are incredibly tough; highly versatile; work hard and live a very long time just like Ruwac vacuums.  Elephants are very dependable – doing their job well, anywhere and anytime.  They are uncomplaining, simple to guide and don’t TIP over.  Ruwac implements those great qualities into every vacuum we design and build.  Let us show you that this “elephant” is one you want in the room.
