Steam Cleaner?

Image
What do you think of when you hear the word Steam Cleaner? To be honest before I started working at Morclean the only vision I had was of a small vacuum style steamer you would use in maybe your kitchen or bathroom, but oh was I wrong as there's a whole range of them.   At Morclean we have different types of Steam Cleaners, so here I'm going to run through the details of each kind of Steam Cleaner. DRY STEAM  All dry steam cleaners have a low volume Supply steam and water with an element so no need for fuel Clean low emission boiler so can be used inside  Run from a 250v or a 415v Suited to detail cleaning internally or where fuel is a problem All electric low volume vapour steam cleaners  DRY/WET STEAM  Medium volume  Electrically driven and oil fired steam cleaner  Supply heat and water from an oil such as Diesel The steam production is high so can be used as wet or dry steam  Suited to large surface cleaning wit...

Image
We attended The Green World Ambassador Awards 2015 on Monday which was held at The Empire Casino London, you may have noticed we've been a little (a lot) excited about this event. So we picked up an award look how lovely it is! The Green Apple Awards are one of the worlds most prestigious recognised campaigns and to mark their 20th successful year they launched the Green World Awards. The Green World Awards recognises and rewards Governments, Ministries, departments, Agencies, Authorities and individuals who have a beneficial impact on the environment and improve sustainability. So to be in with this crowd was such a good feeling as being able to make an impact on the green environment is amazing. We are so proud to have picked up this award, after being given the chance to put ourselves forward after picking up our 2014 award, so we are delighted to have won. So entrants came from a far, so many carbon footprints may have been left but worry not as a tree will ...

Girl Power in the Cleaning Industry!

Image
Did you know that two thirds of those earning low pay are women? The most effected industries being Cleaning, Social care and Commercial catering, which I'm sure these women work very hard, so why should the work go unnoticed and under valued. One of the latest competitive funds in the UK futures programme run by UKCES, recognises that businesses and the economy are losing out on women's full potential in the work place. Gail Cartmail, assistant general secretary at Unite the Union and a Commissioner at  UKCES, said : "As a  UKCES  Commissioner, I’m calling on employers to come forward with fresh ideas for action on the ground and to find practical answers to the gap in pay and opportunity that millions of women face day in, day out." So how can you help?  UKCES are keen to hear from employers in the adult social care,cleaning and commercial catering sectors where 30% or more of their workforce are women. This put forward will hopefully make...

BinWash City - Five Facts

Image
As I'm getting to grips with everything Morclean on my second day, I'm still being blown away at how impressive the Binwash City project is and how environmentally friendly it is. So I thought while I'm doing my research I would run over some interesting facts. The machine is virtually silent... No noise complaints!  Binwash City is also Carbon free and gives out no fumes. So yes the service you would provide would be totally Green.   The Binwash switches to standby when not in use. So you save on battery power to keep costs down.  Water is filtered and ready to be re-used throughout the day. Let's Recycle.  I'm taking it that you have read today's post about the International Green Apple Awards? well this is the Machine that won the award. If you haven't you can go view the post here .  Please contact Morclean email here or  call  01246 471147  if you have any further queries and need more info Posted by J...

Like many bin washers on the market today, we considered recycling water and saving energy was a requirement rather than an innovation. We felt that machines were ...

The Blue Box has arrived!

Image
The Blue Box has officially arrived at Morclean! Here in the Morclean office we have such a buzz about this new release, from seeing this on my first day I can see why, I was really impressed. Having great in design features which make it easy to fit with minimal installation, all surface mounted so no need to disrupt the workplace with costly building work. The Blue Box only requires a power supply to operate with a simple connection consisting of one inlet from the wash bay and one outlet to a mains foul drain. Thinking about relocating? no need to stress as the Blue Box is semi portable and easy to move which can be set up in your new location. This is possible as everything is above ground making unsightly building work a thing of the past. I think this is what impressed me the most after thinking about how much disruption would be going on if it was all under ground, mess everywhere. The Morclean system can be manufactured for other suppliers, in other colours, ...

My first day at Morclean

Image
For me Monday night mainly consisted in me setting my alarm for a super early start, by accident may I add meaning I got up half an hour before I was supposed to. Feeling better for the nice relaxing walk for my train, appose to my normal get out of the door and catch that train! Then straight on to a bus to drop me in Staveley, Derbyshire for my first day at Morclean.  So let me introduce myself, my name is Jodie Blackburn and today I will be getting to grips with everything Social Media and Marketing related at Morclean. Taking on the role of Social Media and Marketing Assistant, what a lovely office to come into.  After my induction and walk around the building I was asked by Peter to sit in on this mornings sales meeting, wow straight in there on my first day how exciting.  This particular meetings focus was all about the Morclean Permanent Wash Pad, which was set up outside which peter gave me a quick run through.  Did you know that it is illegal to wash ...

Morclean Wash Pads

Morclean Wash Pads As you’re probably  aware the civils and builder’s costs for creating a wash pad can be considerable Please see below the details of this surface mounted, movable and semi-permanent wash pad The wash pad will therefore satisfy current legislation for the containment and disposal of water from a wash bay, namely that it is a dedicated, isolated, kerbed, and impermeable surface that contains all the contaminated waste water. The wash mat is a surface mounted system which means the operator can avoid excavation or the need to have any items installed below ground.  This is ideal for leasehold or sensitive sites such as a multi storey car park where ground works are not practical.
