CASE STUDIES:
Client – Norma UK
Location – Newbury
Scope of Works - industrial machinery cleaning, commercial machinery painting

Brief Overview:

APT were asked by Norma UK to tender for a programme of works at their Newbury production plant. We were required to provide a full schedule of works for a complete deep cleaning of all the tooling and metal working machine heavy presses and then to repaint the machinery in the new corporate colours in the main production areas in readiness for their VIP visiting clients.  

We carried a full factory survey and provided proposals for evaluation by the client. We then discussed the cleaning options and methods with the managers and production teams to bring the project in under a tight programme of works.

Issues

The machinery and plant was in constant use with 6 day shift patterns so the schedule for cleaning and painting would be a very tight and coordinated schedule to avoid disruption to daily operations.

We used our APT specialised degreaser, Powermax 2020 and Citrus RTU, to clean throughout the plant heavy presses and cutting and forming equipment as they quickly break down and emulsify all the surface grease, oils and other surface contaminants to allow for washing and wiping off.

We then completed the repainting of the machinery first undercoating and then applied two coats of top coat to reach the desired final finish.

The powermax degreaser was also used for the industrial floor cleaning through the scrubber dryer.


The result/outcome  
APT carried out the programme of works to meet client expectations and have been awarded further ongoing planned schedules of works to ensure further progression of the upgrading to the other areas within the production facility.

Other Comments
As part of our ongoing partnership APT have demonstrated to the client how to implement the Powermax 2020 degreaser into their Kaisan cleaning programmes for weekly cleaning maintenance and floor cleaning tasks.


Testimonial
