Aircraft Cleaning

AIRCRAFT CLEANING was originally a function carried out by the catering or engineering departments of airlines, but following the pattern of commercial and industrial cleaning, the trend in recent years has been to move away from direct labour and to employ a specialist contractor. Cleaning in almost every field has become a sophisticated business, employing the use of specialised chemicals, materials and equipment, with the added need to thoroughly train and supervise staff, to keep pace with the growth in technology and the public demand for cleanliness. There are of course other advantages of employing a specialist contractor, not the least being the question of cost saving. In a labour intensive industry it is essential to achieve maximum labour utilisation. Aircraft Cleaning Services Ltd have gone a long way towards this end and rationalised their airfield operations by offering a comprehensive service to all airlines or handling agents.
