Window cleaners keep their feet on the ground

The Work at Height Regulations apply to all work at height, where there is a risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury. The regulations place duties on employers, and those who control any work at height activity, therefore employers must ensure work is properly planned, supervised and carried out by competent people. As the Regulations have further tightened, safe practice in window cleaning means all work should be completed at ground level if reasonably practicable.

The Unger nLite HydroPower Range uses pure water applied with a water fed pole system to offer a fast, safe and effective method of cleaning windows. Pure water is said to leave glass and surfaces spotless and without the need for any chemicals, so employers save time and money. The kits use FloWater Technology to ensure a sufficient flow through the entire vessel, improving resin efficiency and increasing its lifetime by up to 30%. 

Jeff Snee, product & procurement manager at Arco said, “Falling from height is a major cause of injury within the workplace and working from the ground with Ungar nLite HydroPower High Reach Window Cleaning Equipment removes that risk for workers. The kits are perfect for the cleaning of glass windows, building facades and solar panels without leaving streaks, water marks or detergent residue.”
