A SCOTS commercial cleaning specialist says it aims to kick on after landing two specialist TR19 kitchen cleaning contracts.
Perfect Clean has strengthened its association with the Edinburgh hospitality sector as it has earned contracts with The Raeburn hotel and restaurant in Stockbridge.
It has also agreed a deal with Scottish Borders Council to clean kitchen ventilation systems in over 60 locations within the local authority area, including primary and secondary schools.
The TR19 Grease specification is a set of rigorous requirements issued by the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA) to focus on fire risk management of grease accumulation within kitchens.
The agreements will see the company, which operates across Scotland and the north of England, deploy its TR19 technicians to try and ensure the clients’ ventilation systems are compliant with regulations.
Rafal Piskorski, Perfect Clean health and safety manager, said: “Understanding the importance of proper extract and duct cleaning is essential for restaurant owners who want to run safe premises.
“The risk of fire caused by the build-up of grease in the ventilation systems cannot be underestimated.
“Our clients are well aware of this, which is why they work closely with us, demonstrating their commitment to both the health of their guests and safety of their staff.
“The TR19 guidelines have been the gold standard when it comes to ductwork cleaning and we are proud of the standard of service we consistently provide to a growing client base.”
Lukasz Poplawski, Perfect Clean sales and marketing manager, said: “Venues like The Raeburn Stockbridge in Edinburgh are a showcase of our city and set the highest standards for restaurant hygiene.
“We expanded the business earlier this year to provide a comprehensive TR19 Grease service and look forward to further engagement in both the private and public sectors.
“Having previously supplied TR19 Grease services to a number of local authorities, we have built a strong reputation in this area and are delighted to be working with Scottish Borders Council.
“By adhering to the BESA standards and obtaining the TR19 certification, clients can ensure they are upholding the highest levels of cleanliness and safety, thereby fostering a safe dining environment.”
Perfect Clean has provided services to the Royal Company of Merchants of the City of Edinburgh, Falkirk Council and East Dunbartonshire Council.
