SELDEN RESEARCH EXPANDS TO MARK
50 YEARS Professional cleaning and hygiene chemical manufacturer Selden Research is marking its golden anniversary (50 years) in 2018 with an expansion of its factory in Buxton, Derbyshire.
The company is building a new state-of-the-art warehouse, which will take its total pallet capacity to 9,000. There will also be a new office building with a canteen for its 190 staff, a new laboratory, a sales office and visitor centre.
Selden consists of several brands and has an increasing international distribution network, with the firm recently adding Premiere Products to an impressive roster that includes Dyma, Jeyes Professional and Decosol.
The company produces more than 44m litres of cleaning and hygiene chemicals each year for use by professional industrial and commercial cleaning companies in everything from factories and offices to public sector buildings, schools, hospitals and care homes.
DE-ESCALATING THE
COST OF CLEAN REN Restore is a low-cost cleaning system for restoring the risers of escalators to pristine cleanliness – from RENclean, the same company that revolutionised maintenance cleaning of escalator treads.
In both deep-cleaning and routine maintenance cleaning, the operation is manual, safe and easy to do, using a REN pad engineered to fit the profile of the escalator steps without the need to call on specialist contractors or kit.
REN Restore is a liquid solution that, when sprayed, activates as a micro gel and sticks to the metal surface. It is specially formulated not to drip onto the escalator mechanicals or chain drive system.
20 | WHAT’S NEW?
Mark Woodhead, Sales Director at Selden, said: “We don’t believe in standing still or resting on our laurels. We are constantly developing our products, quality testing every batch produced, to make sure our products develop alongside customer requirement.
“The end user is always at the focus of what we do. We start by asking the simple question; ’what are they actually trying to achieve with the bottle of product’? Are they going to dilute it using a pelican pump, are they going to pour it into a bucket and use it neat? Or are they are going to spray it above eye level?
After a few minutes’ dwell time, scrubbing the static escalator with the REN Riser Brush dislodges the accumulated dirt. This brush has three profiles to clean the curved riser surface and reach into the crevice adjoining the treads. Wiping with the specially designed REN Riser Pad then removes the remaining grime, leaving
"To help end users we have even developed and written our own software for managing in use product risk and training; CleanFM. It is a free online facilities management system for use with Selden, Jeyes Professional and Premiere Products branded products.”
Selden’s milestone 50th year will be marked by the expansion at its headquarters, enabling it to remain at the cutting edge of the manufacture and delivery of professional cleaning and hygiene chemicals. That’s great news for FM managers in the catering, education, contract cleaning and laundry sectors.

The deep cleaning solution can then be used on the treads. Their restorative clean is completed with the RENclean pad used for routine cleaning. Both types of pad can be washed for re-use.
James White, managing director of Denis Rawlins Ltd, said: “Our clients in shopping centres, banks, train stations and airports have already shown that RENclean is a more cost- effective option for routine escalator cleaning, leaving the treads safer under foot as well as cleaner looking.
“The REN Restore system enables any cleaning team to carry out restorative cleaning too, paving the way for this low-cost approach to keeping escalators as clean and safe as any other flooring.”
