A Leisurely clean at Hengrove Park

Hengrove Park Leisure Centre in Bristol is a stunning building. With incredible facilities, including an Olympic-sized pool plus vast glass exteriors, it certainly makes a statement. But without the right systems and access equipment, cleaning the ‘Brise Soleil’ exterior shades could have proved challenging.

Fortunately, we were ready to dive in.

A top-down approach

Made from robust aluminium, the ‘Brise Soleil’ shades are set to a permanent 45° angle. As well as adding a pleasing aesthetic touch, they function primarily to dapple the sun’s at-times intense heat and light, protecting those inside the building.

But the fact that the surface of the slats most exposed to the elements faces up, means that getting close enough to complete a thorough clean requires approaching each slat from above.

State-of-the-art solutions

Employing our elite MZ350 truck-mounted platform for this project gave us highly controlled, up-close access to every slat, while our advanced Steam Cleaning System ensured the pollutants that had built-up over the years were removed efficiently and effectively, without damage to the surface or disruption to the building and its staff and visitors.

Cost-effective cleaning

One of only two in-house in the country, our MZ350 truck-mounted platform ensured this potentially tricky clean was fairly straight forward, and the client benefits were clear, not only in terms of quality and efficiency, but in the costs too.

As part of the project, we also gave the centre’s canopy-supporting pillars a deep clean – ensuring the building was left spic and span, ready for the year ahead.
