September rolls around and that means it is time for another Cleaning Expo. Last year, the big news surrounding the event was the petrol crisis which threatened to prevent some customers and suppliers from attending. This year was surrounded by an altogether much larger and historical event, the sad passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. We love a road...

I recently installed a window cleaning system in a new van for a customer. The system needed to be reliable and easy to use so for my controller, I opted for the ABC 2 controller - a robust piece of kit, housed in a sturdy enclosure. It is compatible with the Aquatec pumps, is fully digital and has some nice...

As the evenings get lighter and a little bit warmer, now is the perfect time to have a look at your van system and equipment and carry out some maintenance. Now we know it is not as exciting but spending some time on your van will be worth it - we promise. Our director, Darren, is on hand to help...

As you may have heard since the pandemic the super fine 0000 grade Bronze Wool Pads have been discontinued and will no longer be available. The super fine 0000 grade is what we recommended for window cleaning as it was safe for use on glass as well as UPVC. However, it’s now time to find a new favourite, but don’t...

We don’t exhibit at this one, so it is a nice opportunity for us to have a leisurely walk round looking at all the latest products and high-tech equipment from the cleaning industry. It was also...

After months of wondering if the Cleaning Expo would go ahead or not, the day finally arrived to pack up the van and head down to Stoneleigh with our road trip snacks. After what seemed like hours of traffic jams, we arrived mid-afternoon to find Dave Kemp from Vision had already marked out our stand for us with an abundance...

We love an opportunity to catch up with some likeminded people and see all the latest and greatest tools of our trade. Two of the UK events which are great for this are The Cleaning Show and The Cleaning Expo. The Cleaning Show is held every two years at the Excel in London. We don’t exhibit at this one, so...

Have you ever wondered if the DA Applicator will fit a pole with a quick lock system, or which scrub pads to use on conservatories and solar panels?   We are often asked questions like these and with this in mind, we have launched the DAcademy, a new page on our website which is bursting with educational and informative content...

The Bronze Wool Pad Holder was developed by our company director, Darren Ansbro, who recognised the challenges the trade faced and was determined to find a simple, but clever solution. Since then, the ingenious equipment has become a staple industry product, a real must-have in every window cleaner’s tool kit. Five years ago, I created the Bronze Wool Pad Holder...
