Why should I automate my warehouse cleaning?

Today’s warehouses are anything but traditional

The warehouse of the future is already a reality today. In all sectors of the logistics industry, businesses are having to be smarter, faster, and more reliable than ever in order to fulfil consumer demands – with many using smart technology, IT and automation to keep up.

Dust can slow down your automated processes

The dust and fumes produced by busy materials handling equipment and endless cardboard boxes can be a real spanner in the works for both new tech and old. It's clogging machinery, blocking the sensors your automated tech relies on, and causing the kind of downtime your fast-paced warehouse really can’t afford.

Automated cleaning saves time and money

Our industrial clean air solutions absorb all the excess dust in your warehouse, so your cleaners don’t have to. Reducing dust by up to 80 % – and saving up to 70 % on your cleaning costs. And that’s before you factor in the benefits of fewer returns, fines, and complaints from customers about dusty products.

"Results showed that the average number of dust-borne microorganisms capable of reproduction was 15.5 germs per measurement. Regional regulations are that they should not exceed 200. So, if the low level is maintained, it's no longer a requirement for us to have a roof on our picking station for sterile goods – a potential saving of £46,000 - 70,000."
