NOVEMBER 2015 29 CLEANING HYGIENE TODAY "" whatmoreuk.com 01282 687030 RP ADAM SIGNS HISTORIC NEW DEAL IN KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA RP Adam Ltd announces the conclusion of negotiations and the confirmation of a new Trademark and Manufacturing License Agreement with Abudawood Industrial Company for the manufacture of Arpal branded chemical products in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This historic deal serves to further cement the long-standing relationship between the Adam and Abudawood families. Robin Leith, managing director says, “Having spent seven years living in Saudi in the 1980’s, I have many fond memories and this new deal is close to both my heart and that of Geoff Adam, as we were the ones that brokered the original deal nearly 30 years ago. When that deal was done, Hussein Abudawood was a competitor and a close friend and it says a lot about this relationship that, on the expiry of the initial 25-year agreement, we should sit down and sign another one. The Saudi marketplace for institutional and industrial cleaning chemicals is huge. There will be Arpal KSA branded industrial chemicals targeted at the construction, oil & gas, and mining sectors along with maintenance and hygiene chemicals for the institutional sector, with particular focus on floor care, kitchen hygiene and building services cleaning. FACILICOM PROUD TO PLAY PART IN EHRC WAKE-UP CALL ON ‘HIDDEN WORKFORCE’ Facilicom UK, one of the country’s leading suppliers of soft support services and specialists in contract cleaning, has played a key role representing the contract cleaning sector in the development of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) Cleaning Taskforce campaign to improve the working conditions of those employed in the industry. “We are extremely proud to endorse the work of the Taskforce, and equally pleased to have contributed to the Working Group for Dignity & Respect” said Phil Smith, Corporate Relationship Director at Facilicom. “The Commission’s commitment to improving working conditions for the nation’s ‘hidden workforce’ is not only driving a step-change in best practice for cleaning employers but is crucially delivering a wakeup call to everyone to take notice of, and respect, those who keep our world clean. “Most importantly, its work – and that of the Taskforce specifically – is making a real difference to people’s lives. It is bringing happiness to a tough job and bringing safety and job satisfaction to a group of people who so richly deserve it.” "" www.facilicom.co.uk 020 8308 5050 ALLIANCE LAUNDRY SYSTEMS DEMONSTRATES FURTHER INNOVATION AND LEADERSHIP IN COMMERCIAL LAUNDRY SOLUTIONS Primus launches radical alternative to existing ‘dry clean’ with better results UniMac delivers everything you need to know about OPL solutions HOST, Milan, 23-27 Oct, 2015 Alliance Laundry Systems (ALS), the leading worldwide manufacturer of commercial laundry equipment, will launch SoftWash – a radical new cleaning process that uses the minimum amount of water and energy to achieve the maximum cleaning performance on some of the most challenging garments and fabrics, without the use of extensive and potentially toxic chemicals. Developed by Primus, a brand of ALS, SoftWash is a ‘dry-to-dry’ process that differs from ‘traditional’ wet cleaning in that it is effective on oil stains, and does not shrink, wrinkle or fade the colours of the materials being cleaned, including silk. SoftWash gives current laundry operators or new investors the opportunity to expand the portfolio of garments they can clean to include leather jackets, house textiles, furniture coverings and even water and fireproof garments. ALS will also use Host to launch a new handbook that provides everything a manager needs to know about delivering an effective on-premises laundry (OPL) solution. It is aimed especially at international, national and regional hotel groups. "" www.rpadam.co.uk max.adam@rpadam.co.uk "" www.alliancelaundry.com info@alliancels.eu
