The Future for a Cleaner Marine Environment
Futureclean Assured Systems is a cleaning consultancy with wide experience of developing marine and ship cleaning systems, specifically for the Royal Navy. Each system is designed for the easiest implementation and operation but to combine maximum effectiveness and to deliver the highest standards continuously.
The marine environment is a unique and delicate environment with its own unique problems. Discharges of oil and oily wastes are very tightly regulated by the MARPOL convention (IMO) and MARPOL plays a pivotal role in all cleaning processes employed. The cleaning processes are therefore unique to the wide range of surfaces and materials found on-board and encompass: corrosion control and prevention, galleys and food preparation, machinery spaces, waste handling and waste water control and overall hygiene and infection control.
As a independent marine consultancy, we offer a wide range of services, which can be interlinked or used individually:
- Audits of your current and proposed sanitation procedures
- Design of new, whole ship, sanitation procedures producing the highest possible standards
- Development of standards and specifications for sanitation procedures and procurement, including tender documents and policy documentation
- Training of cleaners in more effective procedures and higher standards of work
- Procurement of cleaning products which may be more suitable for your needs. If there aren!t any currently on the market which are suitable, then we will design new ones for you. These will all be compliant with separator and waste disposal processing requirements as well as MARPOL 73/78 and the surface materials you use. Most current cleaning products will not meet these requirements
- Cleaning equipment procurement and suggestions
- Surface testing for potential infection problems, where necessary
- Ship sanitation operation manuals produced in an easy to use format
- Consultation on rust, rust staining and corrosion control and their reduction on surfaces
- Consultation on mould and algae treatments
- Elimination of potential environmental pollution during fresh water wash downs and hold cleaning
- Bilge water and oily waste and machine space cleaning procedures established to comply with MARPOL 73/78
- Food preparation area procedures developed to comply with all international food handling regulations
- Infection control and disaster procedures developed for implementation
- There are many more unique and unusual procedures we can design and implement to suit unique and unusual requirements.
- We have many professional contacts in the fields of surface and materials testing, air and soil sampling, coating and paint specialists. These either come in as part of our overall contract or can be individually used.
