Large companies have strict protocols that construction companies must follow if they want to undertake a work or renovation project. Execution time, safety and cleanliness are three key aspects, and today we would like to focus on one of them, cleanliness on a construction site. What are the sectors in which adequate cleanliness measures are essential to achieve success without affecting the factory’s daily activity, and on which must these measures be supported? We are going to explain step by step how Kibler Construction applies such an important parameter as cleanliness in the assembly process when carrying out a project. Let’s start!

Before starting to explain the importance of cleaning in different sectors, we would like to talk to you about a fundamental factor such as the proper management of construction waste. A construction company must include in its project of work execution a study of waste management that reflects the amount that is going to be generated and the measures of disposal or reuse, among many other things. The correct classification of waste has a direct impact on human health and the environment.

What measures and policies do the major brands have in terms of cleanliness and how does Kibler Construction meet these conditions without affecting the company’s production or daily activity? Let’s look at it area by area:

1. Automotive
The automotive industry is one of the strictest in terms of cleaning measures since if the work is not carried out during the summer shutdowns, which usually lasts about 3 weeks, it means that the work cannot under any circumstances affect the plant’s production. So what are the measures to be taken in the automotive sector?

Use of specialized machinery: in many of the areas where work is carried out there are production processes that are not compatible with shaking or noise. That is why at Kibler Construction we have our own machinery designed to mitigate these factors as much as possible.

Isolation of the area by means of tents: in addition to noise, dust is also another factor that must be alleviated in this sector because, for example, in a paint plant in automotive factories, the parts being painted cannot carry dust particles and therefore correct isolation is necessary.

2. Sanitary
One of the keys to managing the construction or renovation of a hospital is the establishment of protocols for safety and cleanliness measures so that patients’ health is not affected. In this sense, first of all, a previous study of the areas of action must be carried out and then, in coordination with the medical professionals, the most important measure must be established:

Isolation of work areas: in the case of hospitals, these are divided into critical areas (which are the areas where high and medium-risk patients are treated) and areas close to the critical areas. Cleanliness on a hospital construction site is fundamental.

3. Laboratories and chemical plants
Because of the activity carried out there, where aseptic conditions must be respected at all times, the laboratory and chemical plant sector is another sector where cleanliness on a construction site is a key factor. Noise, dust or moisture are aspects that must be avoided in order not to interrupt production, and as in the previous cases, this requires the use of specialized equipment and proper isolation.

4. Education sector
Generally, educational centers choose non-school periods to carry out construction or renovation work on their facilities. However, this is not always possible and sometimes the necessities of a school mean that they have to be performed while the teaching activity continues. This is when cleanliness also becomes a key factor in the performance of the project, which is why at Kibler Construction we specialize in working at night so that at the end of the working day all the waste is removed and the daily functioning of the school is not interrupted in any way. In the education sector, cleanliness on a construction site is a key factor.

5. Geriatric residences
Finally, the sector of geriatric residences is one in which activity is never interrupted, as they have residents every day of the year. Therefore, among the three aspects to be taken into consideration when carrying out a project, special care must be taken with cleanliness, order and safety measures. All with the intention of not interfering so much in the health of the elderly who live there.

Therefore, to achieve success and cleanliness in a work, in each line of business with which we work, not only must we have the right professionals, but also the latest technology equipment that affects both the minimum amount of noise generated and the extraction of dust generated. In this way, we take care of the well-being of all the people at the worksite and also in the production processes that may be influenced.

And all this can be achieved through good management of the execution and compliance not only with the deadlines and safety on-site but also with considerable cleaning measures.
