Problem:

In addition to the risk of explosion that comes with build-ups of combustible dust, Lantmannen Bakeries faced a dual problem with this resulting build up of dust providing a food source for nesting pests. Previous cleaning work required extensive shutdown periods and expensive access equipment – all of which was still leaving the facility 40% uncleaned.

Solution:

By introducing SpaceVac, the team onsite were now able to access and clean 100% of the facility from the safety of the ground floor – removing pests and the waste material without the need for expensive access equipment. In turn, the increased speed of cleaning meant that cleaning work is now completed in a fraction of time, minimising the amount of downtime required onsite.

Problem:

At UCC Coffee’s major UK roasting facility, dust generated during bean processing accumulated across silos, mezzanines, and warehouse rafters. Traditional cleaning methods relied on cherry pickers and in-house staff, taking a week to clean just the roasting area and causing operational disruption. This inefficient, costly process posed a serious safety risk and created regular downtime onsite.

Solution:

By switching to a two-person SpaceVac team, UCC’s roasting area was cleaned in just two days—over a weekend, eliminating downtime. The entire site was completed in 12 days, as part of a scheduled program. With no access platforms needed and hazardous dust safely removed, SpaceVac delivered ongoing cost savings and formed a trusted partnership for regular maintenance.

Traditional cleaning methods using access equipment posed safety and hygiene issues, with cleaning often delayed due to operational pressures or difficulty accessing critical high-risk zones.
