Cleanology has been appointed as the cleaning service provider at an immersive entertainment district in the heart of London.
Outernet is a global media and entertainment district, integrating unique creative and technical capabilities to bring cultural and retail experiences alive. All centrally positioned within a wider live performance, hotel, restaurant and bar ecosystem.
Cleanology’s responsibility is for servicing all Outernet above-ground public media spaces, with daily footfall in excess of 170,000. The contract employs six cleaning operatives, with at least one member of staff on site all day, seven days a week.
Dominic Ponniah, CEO of Cleanology, said: “Outernet is boosting London’s profile and attracting a huge number of visitors, and I’m delighted to be part of such an exciting new venture. With such high footfall and a site that is open to the elements, we strive to ensure that it looks its best at all times, reflective of the premium global brands Outernet is host to. It is always encouraging to partner with a company that reflects our commitment to sustainability and fair pay.”
James McEwan, COO of Outernet, said: “Cleanology’s commitment to servicing excellence, their strong value code, plus their extremely personable and professional team, made them the natural choice when deciding whom to help us launch and operate our game-changing public spaces.”
Key Account Manager for Cleanology, Carime Balde, added: “It has been a pleasure to provide services for such a wonderful company. We have managed to create an effective and efficient cooperative system with Outernet, which in turn allows Cleanology to provide the highest standards of cleaning service possible.”
According to Cleanology, the company’s award-winning initiatives to reduce waste and energy were a key factor in the contract decision, as well as its work to support the Hygiene Bank in alleviating hygiene poverty. It is also a vocal campaigner for the Real Living Wage, with over 90 per cent of all staff now on a Real Living Wage rate or higher.
FMJ in conjunction with Grundon Waste Management is pleased to launch the 2023 waste management and recycling survey which examines the ways in which FMs approach their waste management responsibilities.
In this, the sixth year for the annual appraisal, we know there is a greater opportunity than ever for FMs to reappraise their waste and recycling operations and help their organisations meet the growing pressure to achieve ESG goals.
We want to learn how FMs have adapted to the legislative, economic and societal changes of the past year and how they plan to meet the latest waste and recycling targets.
In this survey we’ve posed a series of questions which include insights into FMs’ waste management strategy and targets, how they’re moving towards zero waste targets, and the importance of not just meeting compliance targets but also ESG goals.
The results of the 2023 survey will be published in FMJ magazine and form the basis of a white paper co-written by FMJ and the experts at Grundon on how to approach waste and recycling strategies.
