Imagine stepping into a school where every curtain not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the learning environment but also guarantees the safety and well-being of students and staff against fire hazards.

Our dedication ensures that educational institutions are not just visually appealing but are fortified sanctuaries of learning, offering peace of mind, compliance with stringent safety standards, and budget-friendly solutions.
The Critical Need for Specialized Curtain Maintenance in Educational Settings
Curtains in educational settings are more than decorative elements; they play a pivotal role in light management, acoustic improvement, and crucially, fire safety. Neglected curtains, however, can become reservoirs for dust, allergens, and pollutants, deteriorating indoor air quality and becoming a latent fire hazard due to the loss of their fire-retardant properties. Opting for professional curtain care is thus an essential investment in the health and safety of your educational community, ensuring that every fabric meets and exceeds the nation's fire safety regulations.
A Testament to Innovation: The Princess Hall, Cheltenham Ladies' College
Our work with The Princess Hall, boasting curtains that reach heights of 10 meters, stands as a testament to our innovative and problem-solving capabilities. By employing advanced carbon fibre extension poles, we bypassed the need for traditional, more invasive cleaning methods, achieving unparalleled results at minimized costs. Our comprehensive on-site analysis further revealed a lack of fire retardancy in the existing curtains, leading us to apply a precise fire retardant treatment and secure the BS 5867 Part 2 Type B certification, thereby ensuring the hall's compliance with fire safety standards and achieving significant financial savings.
Tailored Assessments for Your School's Unique Needs
Our commitment to excellence begins with an in-depth evaluation, identifying the specific needs and challenges posed by your school's curtains. Through diligent on-site testing, we uncover essential details that guide our customized care plans, ensuring your curtains are not only restored to their optimal state of beauty and safety but also comply with the highest standards of fire safety.
