Confined space entry cleaning - it's routine for some!

Confined entry cleaning wouldn't be everybody's 'cup of tea' but at Blackburn, Lancashire-based Symclean it's just another part of industrial & commercial cleaning work that its operatives are happy to undertake across the UK.

One of the challenges faced when assessing confined space cleaning is the frequent risk of the possible presence hazardous gases or chemicals, but the company's highly-experienced operatives are prepared at all times.

"Should hazardous gases or chemicals be present and linger in the air, there is a very real danger that an unprepared & unqualified worker could suffer severe consequences," says the company's Tanya Targett. "So please leave it to the specialists.

"There are also other dangers that may need assessment such as grain entrapment which occur often during the silo cleaning process. And this is just another example where confined spaces can present a very real problem, and indeed a great danger within the working environment.

"At Symclean our team has years of experience in confined entry cleaning & are experts at assessing & mitigating such risks by providing bespoke solutions, that are based around the needs of the site & location that you need professional assistance in cleaning.
