Happy Anniversay, to me!

Image
By Michelle Reece, Morclean's Marketing Manager It's exactly 2 years today that I started at Morclean, and what a journey it's been! From the incredible research and development ideas that I've seen put on the table, all the way through to them being designed, developed and manufactured into actual systems, the passion for what they do here has enabled me to get fully entrenched in the cleaning industry. Even throughout lockdown, the team held their heads high and dealt with whatever situation they were faced with. And as hard as it was getting through those scary first months, we have managed to come out fighting on the other side, with our sales increasing expontentially this year. We even opened a new and additional unit in July, that is dedicated to R&D, assembly, manufacturing and production, enabling us to devote our time to progressing the business and the products that we supply, We're always looking to stay ahead of the game by bringing customer-led, in...

Demystifying the fogging and steam cleaning process

Image
Morclean's new Vision CMF Steam Pro Compact Steam Cleaner and Vision SF Steam Pro Fogging Device defies the negativity surrounding the fogging process. Various sources on the internet state that "the practices of fogging, fumigation and wide-area or electrostatic spraying are not recommended as a primary method of disinfection" (ECJ, 2021). However, used in conjunction with BS EN 14476 certified disinfectant, the combination of steam cleaning and fogging results in minimal aerosol or droplet dispersion, meaning that disinfecting in this way is not only completely harmless but the most effective way of cleaning and sanitising surfaces to the most exacting hygiene standards. Contrary to belief, you don't need to be dressed head to toe in an Area 51 Hazmat suit either, but with the right PPE, there is nothing remotely hazardous about sanitising all manner of surfaces with this two-stage steam cleaning and fogging process. The two-stage steam clea...

Vapour Steam Cleaning, The Foolproof Way to Fight Against Coronavirus

Image
As Ward (2020) informed us back in March that “COVID-19 can survive on surfaces, such as worktops or door handles, for up to three days”, we had to be equipped with the right knowledge - and the right tools - to defend ourselves. The article went on to discuss how the study he'd drawn from divulged that “the virus was detected on plastic and stainless steel for up to 72 hours after exposure, and on cardboard for up to 24 hours.” These revelations informed us that we had to take action... and, 8 months on, we have to continue to do so.  In reality, there's nothing more powerful than an industrial steam cleaner for eliminating bacteria, viruses, and pathogens within homes, offices, schools, nurseries, hospitals, hotels, warehouses....... The list is endless. We all have a duty to protect ourselves and those around us, with the NHS recommending steam cleaning "curtains, carpets, mattresses, and soft furnishings that cannot be disinfected with regular cleaning sprays." M...

If The Writings On The Wall, Thermsteam Can Remove It All

Image
While graffiti is a statement of expression for some, for others it is an unwanted, unsightly mess. Deeply i ngrained paint is one of the toughest things to remove from walls, buildings and alleyways. Porous surfaces such as brick and stone tend to absorb solvent-based spray paints, which usually require pressure washing or sandblasting to remove the offending artwork. Paint thinners and chemicals seem like a cheap and tempting alternative to the above methods, however, they tend to spread the paint and make exacerbate the problem, whereas many narrow tipped pressure jet washers can leave a visible outline of the graffiti, and sandblasters can permanently mark the surface if the tip isn't moved over the graffiti constantly. This is why our Thermasteam trailer mounted steam cleaner and hot water jet wash stands head and shoulders above the competition. The revolutionary ThermaSteam removes graffiti quickly and easily without the need for using harmful chemicals and solvents, whi...

Why Vapour Steam Cleaning is Superior to Traditional Steam Cleaning

Image
Whilst most people know what steam cleaning is and how it works, many people don’t understand the difference between Steam Cleaning and Vapour Steam cleaning. Vapour Steam Cleaners   are the modern-day evolution of the standard Steam Cleaner, producing quick-drying, low-water consumption steam.  Extensively used within hospitals, restaurants, care homes, etc., the vapour steam process is effective enough to disinfect and sterilize surfaces without the need for harsh chemicals. Steam is produced in a boiler, heating water to temperatures over 115C to produce low pressure, low moisture vapour. This, along with the machine’s high temperature, allows the steam to penetrate deep into surfaces and sanitise a much greater area than traditional cleaning methods using the minutest amount of water.  This eco-friendly process also allows you to clean with more detail, removing dirt from the tightest, toughest to clean nooks and crannies as it pushes the grime away, whilst deeply ...

Announcing the New Vehicle Powered e-Series Steam Cleaner!

Image
We're delighted to announce the arrival of the new 2019 product test and trial from Morclean’s R&D! So, what’s this all about? Well, most steam cleaners and pressure washers need either an engine or generator to power them. More recently manufacturers have also added batteries to replace the energy needed, which can be expensive, large and heavy. There’s just not enough Kw in a typical 12V van battery to power a machine like this, but here at Morclean we’ve developed a brand new system that drives a powerful yet low-volume steam cleaner, powered from the vehicle alone. It’s that simple; so let’s innovate! Looking forward to hearing all your feedback and comments! #newproducts   #steamclean   #vehiclepowered   #steam   #clean   #system   #innovativesolutions

The Planet-Loving Way to Remove Graffiti & Gum

Image
The Planet-Loving Way to Remove Graffiti & Gum As the way, we treat our planet is becoming more of a problematic the topic each year, it’s important that we all do our bit to be kinder to our home; it is the only one we have after all. One of the issues that we, as a society, need to address, is the way that we approach cleaning. We all love that feeling of getting stuck in and our hands dirty with a good clean and sometimes it’s absolutely necessary, but do we ever stop and really think about all of the harmful chemicals and solvents that we’re voluntarily polluting our air and water supply with? Graffiti removal is one of these necessities . Of course, nobody likes to see vulgar words or images largely spray painted on to buildings, bridges or statues, nor does anyone want to see it.  So, what do we do? We load up our equipment with our noxious graffiti removal spray in hand and get to work scrubbing it down to the brick-like it never happened. But it did happen...

And the winner is... ThermaSteam!

Image
This time last week the Morclean team were busy busy busy chatting with Cleaning Show 2019 go-ers about our brand new ThermaSteam. So let's reflect on the show... Usually, we bring the BinWash along with us to the show but this year was a little different. This year we brought our new machine, the ThermaSteam, which caught quite a bit of attention due to the mesmerizing video we had playing in the background, showing off exactly what the ThermaSteam can do.  Monday: Get up and Set up! Monday was set up day and Ian, Keith and Peter were tasked with the job of pulling the stand together and making it look pretty for the busy days ahead. Getting the TV position just right, meticulously sticking the stand graphics up on the boards and making sure the ThermaSteam was looking its best. It was a hectic day, to say the least, with all the other exhibitors doing the same but everything ran smoothly and the set up was a success with no issues.  Hats off to the team at...

Ebola Virus and The Worlds Hygiene...

Image
Unless you've been hiding your head in the sand for the last few weeks, you'll have heard of the 'pandemic' Ebola virus which is sweeping not only West Africa, but is now feared to have spread even further. Much like the Swine Flu and Bird Flu Viruses, and other viruses or 'superbugs' faced by the NHS, it causes a national panic fed by the media who claim that 'this is the end.' In the 21st Century, after discovering prevention's and cures for many deadly illnesses such as smallpox, malaria, TB and even mild infections which would have killed people hundreds of years ago, we hold our hope on a 'cure' for this dreadful infection. But as the old saying goes... prevention is cheaper (and easier) than the cure. It seems many of the scientists and medical professionals are a little baffled about this latest outbreak. They know the most likely cause of the spread was through infected bush meat (bats and monkeys), but the way it spreads from h...

Morclean Lands on the Shetland Isles

We had an email a few weeks back from one of the remotest parts of the UK you can find… the Shetland Isles. They needed a unit capable of cleaning generators in environmentally friendly surroundings for some pretty urgent work. The Unit needed to be able to clean ivory coloured generators; they needed to be cleaned and de-greased ready for the winter season. Morclean was able to come to the rescue with our Vision Steam Pro 400 which you can see on our website - http://www.morclean.com/vapour-steam/pro-range.html  . The Vision Steam Pros are currently enjoying their new home all the way up in Scotland.  All in a weeks work…
