You’re fanatical about maintaining an organized warehouse. Every piece of inventory is cataloged, trackable, and in the right place. The floors are spotless and you can’t wait to show it off to a potential client.
But just as you’re feeling great about yourself, your boss tells you to look up and there it is…
…DUST!
On the walls, the ceiling…everywhere. What do you do?
A Common Warehouse Cleaning Problem
Last winter, KleenMark was approached by a local industrial facility that was looking to solve that exact warehouse cleaning problem in their 150,000 sq. ft. production space. They’d done a great job keeping the space clean overall, but it was difficult for them to reach anything between 10’-33′ in the air.
Like we’ve seen in a lot of warehouse and manufacturing facilities, the difficulty wasn’t that the work had to be done during operating hours, but that it had to be done without the use of mechanical lifts due safety and production concerns.
So even after hearing that several other companies had tried without success, myself and the rest of the KleenMark Specialty Services team weren’t going to give up easily.
The KleenMark Solution Inspired by…Bicycle Frames (yes, really).
Initially we discussed many different methods such as ladders, backpack vacuums, and extension dusters, but nothing seemed like a good fit to clean without disruption.
However, after consulting with our Facility Supply Manager, Doug Lerch, we found a possible solution…
…carbon fiber. The same material used in lightweight bike frames.
Carbon fiber poles have most recently been used for washing windows, but by repurposing the 40′ poles with microfiber clothes the KleenMark Specialty Services team and I knew we had found lightweight solution that actually worked.
Most importantly, this solution would eliminate all of the safety concerns, rental fees and disruption to production that would have been associated with the use of lifts.
The Results
In less than 5 days…the KleenMark Specialty Services team was able to effectively, efficiently, and safely clean the 25 years of dust that had accumulated in the many hard to reach areas of the facility.
Since the first job, KleenMark has now successfully helped several other industrial facilities across Wisconsin achieve a new level of clean.
