Transit took delivery of a brand new Sweeper which will be used for cleaning of the warehouses and quay.
The decision to replace the exisiting machine was taken after gaining a three-year contract with Sodracell for woodpulp in December 2007. The new sweeper will allow us to clean large areas of the site quickly whilst ensuring that both inside and outside will be clean, safe and dustfree.
On March 14 we said goodbye to our long-standing (and long-suffering!) cleaner, Madge Thorne.
Madge, who has looked after us all for 16 years, had decided to hang up her rubber gloves and retire. Amongst the gifts presented to her on her retirement was a ’golden’ dustpan and brush.
Managing Director, Mark Lay, said: ’We will all miss Madge and her bright, bubbly personality. I hope she enjoys retirement; we made the Pledge that we would not let her Vanish in a Flash.’
