Marquee Washing

Nothing looks better than a sparklingly clean marquee. However, cleaning marquees is no simple business. Our marquee washing service ensures that your marquee looks the best on every occasion.

The cleaning process is in five stages:

1. The sheet is attached to a bar via clever little clips that don't damage the sheet. The roller at the top of themachine rotates and wraps the sheet around the top roller.

2. There are sensors that automate this process andmeasures the length of the sheet. The positioning rollers thenmove across and get the sheet ready to pass through the brushes.

3. The sheet passes between the two brushes. These revolve at 450rpm. The sheet is also being sprayed with hot soapy water. It collects in the space at the bottom of themachine until the whole sheet has passed through the brushes. Unlike othermachines, it does not leave the sheet soaking in the dirty washing water.

4. This is where themachine excels. The sheet after passing through the brushes is drawn back up to the top roller. At this point, the soap stops and wax is sprayed onto the sheet. It then passes between two squeegees and has powerful fans that blow the water off the sheet. It then starts to weave its way around the heated rollers. These rollers are heated to around 60c. Further squeegees press the sheet onto the rollerswhich removes and remaining dampness. A side effect of this is itwarms the sheet which helps fold it when it has finished and also seems to iron it!

5. When the sheet has fully passed through the wash cycle it is wrapped around the top roller.It then is lowered back down the front of themachine where it is folded onto a clean table. The sheet is thenwrapped up, bagged and ready to use.
