With the Liverpool Daily Post & Echo's innovative landmark building being constructed in highly-reflective glass, it is essential to keep it sparkling clean - and that's where a powered access machine from AFI-Uplift came into its own. PG Ashcroft (Window Cleaning & Maintenance Services) hired an AFI-Uplift boom lift over three days to help their operatives give the whole exterior of the newspaper's offices a thorough wash and clean. AFI-Uplift's 16m Haulotte H16TPX boom was used to its full capacity to clean the cylindrical glass building.

PG Ashcroft not only took advantage of the boom's full height, but also made use of its 9.2m outreach to provide quick, easy and safe access. Peter Ashcroft, of PG Ashcroft, said: "It was not simply the height we were after but also the flexibility and manoeuvrability, which we got from the AFI boom. AFI also always advise us on which equipment is best suited for each job and have trained our operatives in the safe use of the equipment. All this enables us to work safely, efficiently and cost-effectively." For further information please contact Monica Metcalfe, AFI Uplift.
