Invests
in Reach
and Wash
Thermo Pure
Advanced
Technology
System from
Ionic
Systems.
A
new hi-tech
cleaning
solution
comes to
Haverhill.
The system
uses glass
and carbon
fibre
waterfed
poles to
clean
windows,
facia,
panelling
and other
surfaces
using
heated 100%
pure water
at heights
of up to 65
feet.
The results
are amazing
and, above
all, the
system
provides a
safer way
of cleaning
than
conventional
methods
because
ladders are
not
required.
The many
benefits
include:
-
A far safer
way of
cleaning
because the
operator
works from
the
ground.
Cleaner
brighter
surfaces
and windows
for longer
because of
the process
used.
An
environmentally
friendly
operation
because the
system does
not use
chemicals
or
detergents.

New
European
Directive -
Work At
Height
Regulations
2005
Falls from
height
caused 67
fatal
accidents
and 4000
major
injuries
during
2003/2004.
The new
Work at
Height
Regulations
2005 have
been made
to prevent
the deaths
and
injuries
caused each
year by
falls at
work. The
regulations,
which came
into effect
in April
2005, apply
to all work
at height
where there
is a risk
of a fall
liable to
cause
personal
injury.
They place
duties on
employers,
the
self-employed,
and any
person who
controls
the work of
others, for
example
facilities
managers or
building
owners who
may
contract
others to
work at
height.
The
regulations
state that
duty
holders
must avoid
work at
height
where they
can. Where
this is not
possible
they should
use work
equipment
or other
measures to
prevent
falls and
if this is
not
possible
they should
use work
equipment
or other
measures to
minimise
the
distance
and
consequences
of a fall
should one
occur.
The
Regulations
require
duty
holders to
ensure:
-
- All
work at
height
is
properly
planned
and
organized
- All
work at
height
takes
account
of
weather
conditions
that
could
endanger
health
and
safety
-
Those
involved
in work
at
height
are
trained
and
competent
- The
place
where
work at
height
is done
is
safe
-
Equipment
for
work at
height
is
appropriately
inspected
- The
risks
from
fragile
surfaces
are
properly
controlled;
and
- The
risks
from
falling
objects
are
properly
controlled.
