When it comes to user-friendliness of the CS7010, Kim Van Gaever tells us that he likes the machine very much and that he would certainly recommend it to others. “It is remarkably easy to handle and it cleans extremely well. The control panel is very user friendly and the daily maintenance is simple.” Kim even gave the machine a name: Dorotha – named after his colleague who is also a hard worker.
THE STORY OF A CLEANING MACHINE IN THE FILM INDUSTRY
AED Group is active in the audiovisual industry since 1985. Their headquarters are located in Willebroek (Belgium) with branches in the Netherlands, Germany, France and the United Kingdom. AED Studios is one of the largest, most complete and ecological film and television studios in Europe. It is the perfect location for all kind of projects, even the most ambitious ones. They welcome film and television productions, large shows, blockbuster movies and also corporate events.
In total, the site is about 77.000m² of which 55.000m² is built on.
The site includes 16 professional studios surrounded by lots of facilities such as back stages, warehouse spaces, offices and restaurants.
| “We strive for our studios to be the most tidy place in the whole film and television branch, so we always want to have everything as clean as possible. We are really focusing on this. To maintain a huge studio facility complex like this one, we need a very strong workhorse. And that is why we chose the Nilfisk combination machine CS7010. It is a strong machine able to work in different areas both in and outside. It works really fast in an efficient way.” explains Filip Van Vlem, International PR & Communications Manager of AED Group. |  |
Nilfisk @ your service
When asked what he thinks of our service and if we meet their standards, Filip Van Vlem replies that when they have a problem or a question, they can contact the right people in the right place within Nilfisk. They are really satisfied with the services that Nilfisk provides.
And that is why they chose Nilfisk as a professional partner in maintaining their studios.
A perfect fit
“The machine is used almost every day, depending on how many events there are. After each event, we clean the studio where the event took place. The floors can be covered with different stains for example spilled beer or sticky lemonade. Outside on the car parks, paths and roads it mainly concerns dust, debris and leaves. In the warehouses where lots of traffic passes, we need both the scrubbing and sweeping function of the machine” says Kim Van Gaever who is one of the two operators of the machine. And this is the main advantage of the Nilfisk CS7010: the combination of a scrubber and a sweeper in one machine where both functions can be used separately or together. As the machine is designed for large areas and surfaces, it really is a perfect fit for AED Studios. |  |
