Industrial Cleaning Case Study:

Industrial Deep Cleaning Project

Lytag Aggregate (Aggregate Industries) | Drax Power Station

Organisation Profile

Lytag Aggregate (now found at Aggregate Industries) are a significant manufacturer of aggregate materials for the construction industry. They have a state-of-the-art factory located at Drax Power Station, North Yorkshire.


The Issues

Our client required significant amounts of dust removing from one of their factory buildings, in some areas up to a foot deep. The project proposed significant challenges with severe time and access constraints.


Objectives

  • To remove significant amounts of dust and contaminants from the facility building while prioritising Health and Safety.
  • To remain flexible throughout with regard to last minute changes due to the ongoing works by both Lytag staff and numerous mechanical and electrical contractors on site.

Results Delivered

The Kingfisher team successfully removed approximately 200 tonnes of dust and contaminants from the facility building, all within budget and by the deadline.


Impact

We are extremely proud to have delivered a successful result for our client, who gave the following comments:

“The project was coordinated well and the team were able to remain focussed and organised despite the dusty and cramped conditions coupled with the logistical difficulties associated with transporting all materials, equipment and labour through the UK’s largest power station.

There were no safety incidents during the project and Kingfisher Site Services (our company name at the time) ensured ongoing compliance with both Drax Power Station and Lytag safety rules and working practices. I wholly recommend Kingfisher Site Services for any restricted access or confined space cleaning works.”
