Spring Project Update

Hygienic Finishing Systems Ltd Posted on by

  We’re all still hard at work, busy with installations & projects for clients old and new – no rest for the wicked, as they say! Here’s a snippet of some of our latest completed works…     We’ve completed a tricky job recently the Portmeirion Pottery factory, in Stoke on Trent.  The ‘slip house’ area was in need of a refurbishment before the installation of new equipment. Being a 24/7 factory, we had to carefully plan the works to ensure that the clients daily processes were not interrupted and their product was not contaminated in any way. Due to the ‘irregular’ shapes of the walls and the large amount of existing wall mounted services, we first had to line the walls with metal studwork before applying a combination of 10 mm thick and 2.5 mm thick hygienic PVC wall panels.  Aluminium chequer plate was then fitted over the lower section of the PVC wall … –

  As usual, August has brought a good mix of sunshine, showers and thunderstorms…a typical British summer. This is historically one of the busiest months of the year for HFS and this year has been no exception, despite the current pandemic. Here’s a brief summary of what we’ve been working on over the last few weeks…     The Orchards SEN School, Manchester – ‘Pearl’ from our Ultima pastels range was chosen for the wall finishes throughout this development, for a local Main Contractor. We’ve installed cladding to a wide range of areas such as hygiene rooms, kitchen, staff changing areas, accessible toilets and the hydrotherapy pool (where the walls went up to heights in excess of 3 metres). In the pool area, we also used access equipment across the pool (installed by our fully trained operatives) to allow us to reach the ceiling which also had our ‘Pearl’ cladding applied … –

  We’re famous!  If you’re a MasterChef fan, you may have noticed some of our work in the Quarter Final episode, which aired on Wednesday 1st April from Wood Manchester, where back in 2017 we carried out works on behalf of Caterware.
