EN 14065 ACCREDITATION

We take great pride in being the first carbon-neutral laundry facility to achieve EN 14065 accreditation.

EN 14065 accreditation is a symbol of our pledge to operate at the highest standards of hygiene and cleanliness, aligned with Healthcare Technical Memorandum 01-04 (HTM-01-04). This compliance is essential to meet the stringent demands of healthcare facilities and ensures the safety and well-being of patients and staff alike.

COMPLIANCE WITH HTM 01-04 FROM THE DEPARTMENT FOR HEALTH

This set of guidelines establishes essential standards and protocols for the decontamination and handling of linen in healthcare facilities.

Adhering to HTM 01-04 ensures the maintenance of a safe and hygienic environment, where the risk of cross-contamination and infection transmission is minimised. By following these guidelines, we can effectively control and eliminate potentially harmful microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and spores, from healthcare textiles. Compliance also ensures the proper segregation and handling of soiled and clean linen, preventing any form of contamination and guaranteeing the highest level of cleanliness. Furthermore, promotes consistency and uniformity in laundry processes across the industry, fostering trust and confidence among healthcare providers and patients.

CCD TESTING

Our disinfection methods have undergone rigorous clinical testing and validation by an independent third party, CCD (Clinical Contract Diagnostics).

Through this collaboration, we demonstrate our commitment to transparency and quality assurance, ensuring that we achieve above NHS-grade disinfection (99.99999%) of bacteria, fungi, and viruses in our wash process, guaranteeing the effectiveness of our disinfection services. By subjecting our processes to independent evaluation, our goal is to set the highest standard within the laundry industry and establish ourselves as a trusted provider of reliable and scientifically validated hygiene solutions.

THE POWER OF OZONE

We employ cutting-edge ozone technology to ensure the highest level of cleanliness and care.

Ozone, a highly reactive gas composed of three oxygen molecules, exhibits exceptional deodorisation and disinfection properties while maintaining a safe and gentle approach. Through the process of oxidation and cell lysis, ozone effectively eliminates germs and odours, leaving behind an environment above NHS-grade disinfection.

This incredible cleaning agent is widely utilised in critical sectors such as healthcare, food and water industries, and even spacecraft disinfection, yet is gentle enough to be used on delicate garments too, highlighting its remarkable efficacy. When it comes to ensuring impeccable hygiene and revitalising freshness, the power of ozone cleaning truly stands out as an innovative and reliable solution.

OZONE APPLICATION DURING COVID-19

Our cleaning services have played a vital role during the Covid-19 pandemic, enabling us to effectively disinfect linen and textiles for healthcare and other essential commercial industries.

Throughout the global health crisis, our founder, Dr. Kyle C Grant, collaborated closely with organisations such as the NHS, CCD, and the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine trial to refine our cutting-edge washing process.

With our commitment to science-backed practices, we guarantee that every client receives a clinically-clean service.
