With ever-increasing food safety compliance standards amongst New
Zealand’s food and beverage industry, Presco Environmental has committed
its laser focus to providing specialist critical hygiene cleaning services
specifically to food producers in need.
Based in Taranaki, Presco
Environmental is a passionate team
of specialist industrial cleaning
technicians whose vision is to
‘maintain hygienic factories for NZ’s
world-class food producers’.
So how do they
live up to this?
Senior industrial hygiene and indoor air quality
advisor, Matthew Prestidge, says: “It’s simple;
by gaining a deep understanding of food safety
pain points, then researching global best practise
solutions that the industry offers.”
The mobile team specialises in proactive,
scheduled cleaning programs, but also provide
one-off deep cleans and reactive audit action
cleans. Their expert technicians asses your
situation and design and carry out sustainable
and thorough cleaning solutions specifically for
you. Fully-equipped, trained technicians will
clean to the agreed method and provide you
with a digital report, including photos of work
completed.
Some of their services include chemical cleaning
and sanitising, HVAC system cleaning, dry ice
blasting, building maintenance, drone spraying
for roofs and floor scrubbing.
But what makes Presco Environmental different
from any other cleaning contractor?
Being solely committed to the food and beverage
industry makes Presco Environmental unique;
their entire service offering is set up to comply
with global food safety standards.
Aside from their laser focus on NZ food
producers, here are three reasons that set
Presco Environmental apart:
1 People
The Presco Environmental team has 145
combined years of experience in industrial
cleaning, working with some of NZ’s biggest
food producers. Their people are their biggest
asset, through their experience, expertise and
slew of qualifications. Some of these include
hazard identification and control, permit to work,
licenced operators of mobile elevated work
platforms, safe work at heights, safety observer,
fire watch, confined space entry, gas testing, fire
extinguishing, chemical handling and Industrial
first Aid.
Presco Environmental strongly value the low
staff turnover amongst their committed and
passionate team, with a number of technicians
having worked for the company since its very
early days.
2 Documentation
Understanding the industry means Presco
Environmental realises the need for meticulous
care and documented evidence of cleaning work
done.
“Audits are the bane of any food producer’s life,”
says Matthew. “Yet we understand how vital
they are to providing safe food to our locals and
people overseas. That’s why we clean to the
highest of standards and provide you with the
documentation to prove it.”
All work is completed under a documented
hazard identification and control system for your
compliance and peace of mind.
3 Commitment
to innovation
Knowing the food and beverage world is
rapidly changing, Presco has a core value of
‘opportunity through continuous improvement’.
“We are on the lookout for ways to do things
better, quicker, faster every single day,” says
Matthew. Recent innovations include dry ice
(frozen CO2) waterless cleaning and drone
spraying for roof maintenance; both are
disrupting the industry.
Presco Environmental is partnering with the food
and beverage to work towards a cleaner New
Zealand: “We are as passionate as you are about
keeping NZ famous for the quality of its food
production. We are on a journey together.”
