Dirty kennels gone to the dogs
April 1st 2011 Dogs Trust field director, Simon
Underwood trialled the Vikan
range at the Dogs Trust Rehoming
Centre in West London.
A colour coding programme
was used to reduce the risk of
infection spreading from one
animal block to another.
Designed for the food processing
industry, the Vikan Hygiene
System range is said to be
durable and effective.
The Vikan team implemented
a colour coding system for the
five different blocks as well as
selecting Hygiene System tools
for individual kennel area
cleaning tasks. The ErgoClean flat
mopping system was used for
cleaning the floors in the
reception areas,
corridors and veterinary
suites. Cleaning the
kennels required
scrubbing brushes,
squeegees, shovels and
buckets.The water
jetting gun was chosen
for the outer areas.
Brushes such as the HiLo for walls
and ceilings, the tank brush for
security bars and grills and the
EasyShine kit for windows and
tables were also used.
Colour coded wall brackets
were installed in each block for
visibility and correct selection of
tools. More articles from Vikan (UK) Limited: |
