WORKING AT HEIGHT SPECIALIST RECEIVES UNEXPECTED REWARD FOR PAYING LONDON
LIVING WAGE CAM Specialist Support has been presented with the London Borough of Lewisham’s Employer of the Year award for its commitment to its staff, including paying the London Living Wage.
The award was presented to Matt Johnson, Managing Director, by Sir Steve Bullock, Mayor of Lewisham, when he visited CAM, along with council colleagues, as part of Living Wage Week. Their mission was to find out more about CAM’s experience of paying the London Living Wage and developing its workforce with apprenticeships. CAM is one of only
HEFTER AND DENIS RAWLINS TEAM UP TO PROMOTE INNOVATIVE SCRUBBER DRYERS
ACROSS UK Cleaning contractors and facility managers looking to exploit innovative floor cleaning technology are the target for a new alliance between Denis Rawlins Ltd and Germany’s leading manufacturer of scrubber dryers.
Hefter Cleantech has appointed Denis Rawlins – who has over 40 years’ experience advising and supporting companies with their cleaning needs – to distribute and support its range of advanced scrubber dryers across the UK.
“Our aim is to bring innovation to the cleaning industry, and Hefter Cleantech has the most innovative and productive machinery on the market today,” said James White, Managing Director of Denis Rawlins Ltd. “That is why Rawlins has chosen to work with Hefter in the UK.”

two private sector organisations in the borough accredited by the Living Wage Foundation.
After receiving the award, Matt said: “We pay the Living Wage, because we believe it is the right thing to do morally. I want everyone who works here to be able to feed and clothe their families and not be worrying
Coldfield, his Hefter Cleantech counterpart, Thomas Stangl, added: “Rawlins and Hefter Cleantech have a very similar vision and values, which makes them a perfect fit for us in the UK.”
Hefter scrubber dryers use a series of patented systems to extend the productivity of the machine that is the mainstay of floor cleaning in many buildings. Contract cleaners, specialist hire companies and resellers saw this clever technology at work in a live demonstration at the event earlier this month.
Cleantech’s Convert repurposing technology also aroused immediate interest. This rapidly transforms the Hefter Convert 82 stand-on scrubber dryer into a high-speed burnisher via a Quick-Change head.
A wide range of buildings – from factories, warehouses and supermarkets to hospitals and sports facilities – stand to benefit from these capabilities to boost productivity without compromising high cleaning performance, according to Rawlins and Hefter Cleantech.

about in-work poverty. As well as the moral benefits, we’ve found there are commercial returns as staff are more loyal and flexible when they are being treated with respect, reducing recruitment time and costs. Paying the Living Wage also means people are less likely to take shortcuts while working and we have an excellent safety record as a result.
“We were honoured when the Mayor wanted to come and visit us to discuss how we work and how other businesses can be encouraged to join the Living Wage movement. I was surprised and delighted when he presented us with the Employer of the Year award, but it is always great to be recognised for doing the right thing. We hope more businesses will realise the benefits of paying the Living Wage to their staff and contractors so that everyone receives a fairer deal.”
