PERIODIC CLEANING AND TECHNIQUES ENVIRONMENT-SPECIFIC SERVICES CONSTRUCTION SITE CLEANING - In newly constructed or renovated environments, even of modest size, traces of glues, paints, concrete, and other debris will inevitably be present. PVB offers its customers services dedicated to the professional removal of these residues, thus avoiding the risk of permanent damage to the surfaces themselves. THOROUGH CLEANING - Before a routine cleaning program can be initiated, a thorough cleaning must be carried out in order to remove the residues incorporated within the surfaces’ protective films themselves, such as waxes or resins. These operations require a team of experts capable of identifying the most suitable means for dealing with the different types of residues and materials, while always making use of the most suitable equipment. PRESERVATION TREATMENTS - The best way to ensure the performance and durability of any surface or object is through regular care using the most appropriate means and methods. In this manner, PVB preserves the value of any interior environment, including wood furniture, marble, terracotta or slate flooring, linoleum, wood floors, carpets, fabric upholstery or fine furnishings. RESTORATION TREATMENTS - Weather, smog, negligence, the use of incorrect products, floods, fires and other disasters can result in visible damage to flooring, façades and other materials in general. Our technicians’ knowhow and our advanced tools allow for the original integrity of the surfaces to be brought back to life. EXTERNAL AREA MAINTENANCE - The maintenance services include interventions dedicated to tree pruning and the management of green areas, as well as swimming pool maintenance and exterior window washing.
ENVIRONMENTAL SANITATION SOCIAL SERVICES Sanitation projects are comprised of several different processes aimed at achieving an objective, measurable and certifiable goal: the containment of bacterial loads. THE AGRO-FOOD INDUSTRY - The European Community requires all managers of environments used for the production, storage and processing of foodstuffs to develop a custom and efficient hygiene plan. Our technicians are at the customers’ complete disposal to assist them in planning the execution of the various activities required for the abatement of any bacterial load using low-pressure foaming systems, the results of which are then monitored using special instrumentation. SANITATION PROCESSES IN HIGH RISK COMMON AREAS - For places like spas, swimming pools, wellness centres, gyms, kindergartens, boarding schools, military barracks and health facilities containing highlyfrequented common areas (restrooms, changing rooms, showers, etc.), the containment of bacterial colonies and pathogens is a must. The treatment involves the use of mobile low-pressure foaming units and disinfectant chlorine-active detergents. SANITATION OF MEDICAL AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT - The electrostatic fields generated by monitors, keyboards, phones and electronic devices in general act as a powerful magnet for pathogens. This was shown by a recent study conducted by the University of Arizona, according to which the equipment at our workstations represents a formidable vehicle for the transmission of allergies, fungal infections and other diseases. These everyday tools were shown to be 50 to 100 times more contaminated than the sanitary ware present in the restrooms. For this reason, specific long-lasting sanitation measures need to be carried out in order to protect the health of the workers.
clim control AIR QUALITY SERVICES While we often worry about the pm10 levels in our streets, it rarely occurs to us that these microscopic particles can also nest in fans and/or air conditioning systems, just a few steps away from our workstations. Inside office buildings we’re accustomed to breathing air that, for 8 hours a day, passes through these systems. If not properly maintained and sanitized, these systems can seriously compromise the health of the environment. For this reason, based of the provisions of Italian Legislative Decree 81/2008, our periodic program includes the sanitation and cleaning of heat convectors, as well as the ducts of air treatment units, air conditioning systems and ventilation systems. This specific intervention is designed to eliminate all bacterial floras, sediments and dust, thus ensuring optimal climatic conditions and constantly clean air inside the workplace. The intervention is divided into several phases: the first step is to take inventory of the system’s components and to draw up a maintenance booklet; the second step is to define and execute the various sanitation operations to be carried out upon each component; next, a video inspection is carried out inside the ventilation ducts, whereby dust samples are taken for laboratory analysis; finally, where necessary, the programmed cleaning operations are carried out using robotic units. The specific applications of the Clim Control system include the following: •
Sanitation of heat convectors or fan coils
•
Cleaning and sanitation of air treatment units
•
Inspection and check-up of air conditioning and ventilation ducts
•
Cleaning and sanitation of air conditioning and ventilation ducts
•
Issuance of certificates and maintenance booklets
