Cleaning and Drying Room Project
When a leading worldwide manufacturer of large industrial filtration units decided to bring their production of mild steel filtration units back to the UK their initial requirements indicated that they needed a simple bunded area complete with drainage pipe, curtains and steps in order to wash down the filtration units prior to primer painting. Layton Technologies, with their expertise in precision cleaning applications, were not initially an obvious choice. However Layton’s experience and flexibility in handling turnkey projects soon showed itself to be invaluable to the company as they worked to identify the specific requirements of the project. The simple bunded area transformed itself into a much bigger proposition to include a 2 room facility consisting of a wet room incorporating state of the art pressure washing equipment and a separate drying room using the latest infra-red technology. Once the company developed a detailed URS with input from Layton, they were then able to hand the project over in its entirety to Layton to project manage the design, manufacture, installation and implementation which included the extraction system and the pump to drain system taking the waste to the effluent
treatment plant.
A spokesperson for the company stated that “the design and installation of the facility has enabled us to massively increase the work throughput by allowing a phosphating step to be incorporated into the cleaning procedure and has given our operators a much more effective and user friendly working environment.”
