- Savings €4,000/year
SKF Group is a global leader in bearing and seal manufacturing. ISS is a global leader in facility services, delivering cleaning, maintenance, and workplace management solutions.
The customer’s challenge
SKF Göteborg introduced a new lunchroom with Floortex carpeting, but industrial workers entering with hydraulic oil on their shoes made cleaning the carpet extremely difficult. Initially, SKF considered replacing the carpet, but ISS sought an alternative cleaning solution to extend its lifespan and reduce costs.
i-team's solution
i-team and its partner demonstrated the Orbot Sprayborg to test if the carpet could be cleaned instead of replaced, restoring its condition while reducing costs.
Result
- €4,000 saved as SKF no longer needs to replace the Floortex carpet.
- Increased service hours for ISS, strengthening their role in facility maintenance.
- A cleaner lunchroom, with improved ATP & sand-test results confirming better hygiene.
- Reduced resource consumption, leading to annual savings on energy, water, and chemicals.
- Improved safety by reducing slip risks and workplace incidents.
- Improved overall image, hospitality, and ergonomics for a better environment.
