Partnership Promises New Levels Of Cleaning
Innovation A new partnership has been announced between leading cleaning system specialist Wetrok and the national distributor-training organisation Jigsaw Cleaning Systems.
Wetrok, a Swiss company offering next-generation cleaning technology, will be working with Jigsaw to provide unrivalled products, services and support through its growing distribution network.
Already, a number of distributors have committed to the Wetrok- Jigsaw offering of cleaning products including machines, chemicals and janitorial items that help address productivity, cost, the environment and training.
Nick Townsend, Country Manager for Wetrok in the UK, said: “Together with Jigsaw Cleaning Systems as our Main Distributor in the UK, we see an opportunity to expand the regional distributor network.
MP Praises BCC For Its Stance On Living Wage And Offers Support
At Westminster An MP has heaped praise on the British Cleaning Council, saying that it has shown ‘great judgement’ by campaigning for the Living Wage.
Jim Fitzpatrick, MP for Poplar and Limehouse, was vice-chairman of the ‘Tidy Britain All Party Parliamentary Group’ during the last Parliament, with BCC Member, Keep Britain Tidy.
And he said he is speaking to colleagues from across the political spectrum about the possibility of another All Party Parliamentary Group.

“Customer-focused research and development remains at the heart of Wetrok’s business, and we are excited to work with Jigsaw to deliver these products widely in the UK market.
“Jigsaw Cleaning Systems shares Wetrok’s core aim, to work closely with customers and distribution partners to deliver the highest standards in hygiene, optimise productivity, maximise the ergonomics for the cleaners themselves and offer environmentally-friendly solutions.”
James Blackhurst, Managing Director of Jigsaw Cleaning Systems, added: “We are creating a new level of cleaning systems that look at the key decision-making factors behind a client’s interest in changing its cleaning practices and we will then offer a process that is built around their needs be it equipment, financial, environmental or skills.
“The Wetrok brand is known internationally for its quality and reliability and we plan to further improve the recognition of the range within the UK cleaning sector.
“We will be working closely with Wetrok’s technical experts in research and development to ensure that new machinery and chemicals continue
to recognise and meet the specific cleaning needs and best practices of the UK cleaning market place.
“We want our customers to understand that buying a piece of equipment is only the first step and that the ongoing support and expert advice offered by this partnership is key to everyone’s success.”
The Wetrok-Jigsaw collaboration will serve all sectors for cleaning across the UK including FM, healthcare, contractors, government, leisure, hospitality and education.

He said: “The Living Wage Campaign started in the East End, and I got involved a number of years ago in the campaign for cleaners at Canary Wharf. I believe fair pay and dignity at work are things we should constantly be striving for”
Research by the BCC has found that paying the Living Wage can actually prove cost-effective in the cleaning industry by reducing staff ‘churn’ and absenteeism, and by increasing staff morale, which in turn leads to improvements in productivity.
The former Minister is one of the few Labour MP’s to have increased his majority at the recent General Election, and has campaigned for a living wage for cleaners in his own constituency.
After supporting the Living Wage campaign for a number of years, the BCC, itself, was accredited as a Living Wage employer earlier this year.
Jim Fitzpatrick will be the BCC’s special guest at this year’s Golden Service Awards, and will present the ‘Supervisor of the Year’ award at the event.
