Dual Surface Mounted Washpad installation in Essex

Image
The Morclean team recently returned to a site in Essex to enter Phase 2 of a big project.  A dual surface mounted wash pad to suit two vehicles, with a fully enclosed wash bay canopy. The Morclean team set this up for a car dealership in Rayleigh.  Surface mounted vehicle wash pads from Morclean are CE marked, which means they are perfectly suitable for the containment and disposal of the waste water created by car washing. This also completely avoids the need for any excavation or below ground installations - which can be extremely expensive and time consuming - if possible at all! These style of wash pads are perfect in this location at a car dealership, as they are very heavy duty and are suitable for washing a high volume of vehicles. The experienced Morclean team can generally install something like this within hours - minimal fuss or inconvenience to the business.  This is a continuation of the project that was set up by Morclean - it will eventually include above ground tanks fo

An Excellent Trip to Stoneleigh - Cleaning Expo UK 2024!

Image
This year at the Cleaning Expo UK 2024, the Morclean team had a great time, exhibiting an even more comprehensive range of equipment than ever before.  Taking place Saturday 13th April 2024, the trade show was a fantastic event! The Morclean Team had a very busy couple of days - we headed there on the Friday (in several vehicles!) and set up our stand at the NAEC and made sure everything was ready for the big day. Then came a very productive Saturday, welcoming so many visitors - all pre-sale online tickets actually sold out at the event! The Cleaning Expo UK is one of the most established cleaning events in the UK, and it brings together many different suppliers and industry leaders, as well as up and coming businesses. It's a great place to see all the new technology and developments, and get to know the experts behind them. Morclean are always excited to exhibit at such an enjoyable event.  It was a brilliant day, and we would love to thank the organisers for putting on a great

Custom Plus Bin Wash just the thing for Irish Skip Company

Image
Morclean recently provided a Custom Plus Bin Wash to a brilliant Skip company, Skips on Wheels , located in Dublin, Ireland.  This company specialise in waste collection, but with a bit of twist. They collect the domestic and commercial waste, for example house clear outs, garden tidy-ups, attic clearing or shed decluttering.  The unique thing about this service is that they don't offer the traditional static skips, they are 'on wheels' so they come, they load, they go. It is an alternative to traditional skips that they specialise in.  Morclean are so happy to provide this business with a Custom Plus Bin Wash .  A sturdy and well engineered machine, they are purpose built to be fully self contained. It is a great option to add to your current business - this will beautifully compliment Skips on Wheels already thriving business and add a great extra income stream.  Built using a heavy-duty galvanised trailer, baffled poly tank and stainless steel catchment tray, the Custom

A New Addition to a Council's Cleaning Services Fleet - the Flite

Image
 Morclean Bin Wash Flite  Morclean's self contained bin wash machine, the Bin Wash Flite has been a hugely popular item since it's release.  A council in the UK recently purchased a brand new Bin Wash Flite for their Bin Washing Service. They are proud to say that they provide highly skilled cleaning, with many years of experience working for their local residents. Morclean were very happy to provide them with an excellent new addition to their cleaning fleet! This council are one of many service providers who provide reliable Bin Washing Services, either as a one-off occasion, or you can also book quarterly, bi-annually or monthly cleans. A great idea, as not everyone will need one every single month, but booking in a regular clean is beneficial. The prices start at £15 for a one off clean for one wheelie bin! The Flite is particularly unique as the whole system can be fitted to most 4x4 pick up trucks. They look very professional and would be a great addition to any council

Phase 2 of a Multisource Project at Morclean

Image
Back in 2020, Morclean started work on a vehicle wash project in Denbighshire. Fast forward to just this past week, and the Morclean team completed Phase 2 of this huge installation.  See the original post when Morclean started this project here: https://morclean.blogspot.com/2020/10/looking-to-future-in-north-east-wales.html We have worked closely with our client on this mega 4 year project, including phased targets to keep us all on track! Some projects are more lengthy than others, and we can adjust timelines to suit our clients. This phase of the installation included the gantry and screen, shown in the photos below. The beginnings of the project four years ago included a whole host of works, including below ground interceptors, silt traps and water management tanks.  We are committed to providing excellent customer service, and are happy to take on these long term projects for clients who require these major works.  If you would like to discuss any ideas you have for upcoming proj

An Eco Friendly Approach to Weeding!

Image
Morclean are developing equipment to tackle the problem of weeds using JUST hot water.  Killing and Controlling Weeds using JUST Hot Water Weeds are a common problem in gardens and outdoor spaces. Many of the chemical solutions and weed killers actually come with health and environmental risks. This is something that the government is well aware of - in fact the quote below from nfuonline.com  is in reference to using a chemical found in most weed killers: On the NFU (National Farmer's Union) Website -  "Glyphosate is currently authorised for use in the EU until 15 December 2023,  following an extension to the renewal assessment process in 2022.  In the UK, the current expiry date is December 2025, following a three-year extension as the UK’s post-Brexit pesticides regulatory regime is developed." Hot Water Weed Control - How Does it Work? Weeds can adapt to various and challenging conditions, making them very difficult to eliminate. However Morclean have developed powerf

Taking on the Great North Run!

Harry Morley, a member of the Morclean team, is taking part in the Great North Run this year to raise money for an amazing cause - St Giles Hospice.  St Giles Hospice provided end of life care for Harry's grandad in his final few days.  He was made comfortable, well looked after and nothing seemed to be too much trouble.  They are wonderful people and the hospice is able to do their amazing work due to donations. Harry would love to raise some money to say thank you, and so they can do this for others.   Harry and his close friend Maggie Hunter are running the famous Great North Run 2024 on Saturday 8th September.

The Annual 9th Slow Rally was a success!

Image
Slow Rally 2023 The famous Slow Rally saw the streets of Guastalla this past October and it was once again a huge success!  Guastalla is a small town in the Emilia-Romagna region of Northern Italy with just 7,500 inhabitants. Our friend, Gino Tosi, has been organising this Slow Rally here for 9 years now, and every year it just gets better! Morclean are proud to support and be part of this incredible event.  The Slow Race is the race where you want to come LAST. That's right, it's as slow as you can go all the way round the track! Competitors gain sponsors and raise money to support the cause.  All the money raised by Morclean is split 50-50 between Fairplay in Chesterfield and   Anffas  Trentino   in Italy. Both charities offer support and activities for people with disabilities and their families.  Peter Morley, who always goes out to support and take part in the Slow Rally said: " I have seen first hand the people that we directly help when money is raised for these tw

Inventing the impossible with Morclean's IBC Vac

Image
Today's post is all about Arvin Meretor, who are a Midlands based clutch and brake manufacturer.  Arvin Meretor had a bit of a problem they had been facing in their manufacturing process. It concerned a product that is contained within vessels that needed to be emptied of liquid in some way. All ways were considered - discharging, pumping, taken away somehow? The most practical solution would be to use a vacuum cleaner to remove the liquid, but the amount in the tanks added up to ONE THOUSAND litres. A LOT of liquid. So, all that Arvin Meretor needed was a 1000 litre vacuum, right? Get in touch with Morclean. Problem solved.  However, Morclean were quite confident that this vacuum did not exist. There was no machine any where near that size on the marketplace.  In order to recover this amount of water in this way, a couple of problems presented themselves. 1. A  vacuum unit on a standard 240 or 415 volts supply, cannot convey the air across such a large capacity container of 1000 l

Morclean proving innovative solutions for coaches, buses and motorhomes

Image
Morclean really can provide all the answers! A really tricky situation is where to dispose of toilet waste for vehicles on the move - like a coach, bus or motorhome. It may sound straight forward (a hole in the ground!?) However, this is something that needs careful consideration.  Morclean can offer a complete innovative solution from our range to help you with this.  A WC Toilet drop sump from Morclean is perfectly designed for this purpose. They are fitted with a galvanised hinge grating. This means that the vehicle can drive over the grating to neatly dispose the contents into. This drop sump can then be connected to a mains drain or a containment tank.  We can add these hinged gratings to an installation, for example one area could be for the washing of the coach or motorhome after a long journey, and then emptying the toilet in another separate area. The two areas are not physically connected below the ground, butt they can work together well and both be separately connected to t
