These are only a very small selection of case studies, for demonstration purposes only. All cases are genuine but in line with our strict policy on non-disclosure we always never reveal the name of a customer. All the systems we develop are often unique to that particular contract because we find that most contracts are unique in one way or another. Our systems are always designed to work around your problems and the problems we find (not the same thing by any means) and by removing all the problems you have you will be a very happy customer of ours with a guaranteed workable, real life solution.

CASE STUDY 3

 

We were asked to restore an in situ escalator while on a builders clean.

PROBLEM: Escalators can be cleaned in situ but are usually neglected so that a full restoration is not usually done but is needed. There are escalator cleaners on the market but these are not able to wet clean – they only vacuum clean and so will not clean the ground in soiling on the treads and risers, and they are very expensive to buy. A full restoration has to be done wet with detergents, but not just any detergents. There is a mix of surface materials that commonly used alkaline detergents will damage one or two of the materials during the restoration. In addition, the very limited use of water also precludes the use of steaming because of the build up of water which will cause damage to the machinery running the escalator. Further problems include the damage done by the salt on the ground from winter, being caught on, and damaging, the surfaces where an escalator enters from the outside, and the always heavy application of chewing gum on the steps and foot plates. This escalator had not been cleaned in 23 years, the time of its installation.

SOLUTION: our customer was so delighted with the system we designed and the results it obtained, that we were given all his escalators around the UK (around 90 of them) to clean. However we produced a cleaning system on paper which every shop manager had to use to keep and maintain the appearance of the escalators

But our knowledge and experience is far wider than the case studies would show:

There is no cleaning problem anywhere, we can’t solve and here’s the reason why:
