“PPS Wash” offers a new washing service for plastic pallets, nestable crates, tote boxes, collapsible crates and dollies at their new 20,000 sq ft. site at Measham in the Midlands.
The company purchased a state-of-the-art industrial wash line to wash its own fleet of nestable crates but decided to expand the capacity above their own requirements and offer such capacity to any third party who may need to have crates, boxes or pallets washed to the highest standards.

PPS own crates are largely used in the beef, pork or poultry industries for the transport of raw meat. The crates are often returned in a heavily soiled condition and with labels still attached. It was imperative then that the wash line should be specified to meet the highest standards of cleansing. Extra-heavy duty pumps and additional wash jets were specified and installed and PPS employ extra staff to visually inspect every crate that passes through the wash line.

As a result PPS now offers the ultimate in crate washing efficiency where third parties who cannot reach the level of cleansing within their own wash facilities are sending their equipment to PPS for deep cleaning. Swab and other hygiene tests are carried out throughout each shift and test results collated and stored for future reference.

Many companies who use such equipment have their own wash lines which are usually sufficient to meet their own demands. However PPS can offer a number of options to third parties – e.g. long- medium- or short-term contracts, ad hoc or “one-off” washes, to meet seasonal demands or even in the event of a wash line breakdown in emergency cases.

PPS invites any business who may require some form of washing to visit the Measham site and inspect the facility. Furthermore they offer to run a trial using the customers own equipment (whatever level of soiling) during any such visit.
