Keeping the engines moving at David Harrison


phs Besafe is working with leading machinery supplier David Harrison Handling Solutions Ltd to ensure its workforce has access to clean, high quality safety wear at all times.

Using cutting edge laundry technology and a carefully managed service, phs Besafe ensure David Harrison’s engineering workshop team always has access to clean and safe PPE garments as soon as they need them.

The team at Besafe visited the David Harrison site to measure up wearers to ensure the most comfortable fit for each individual and provided them with high quality, branded boilersuits, jackets, trousers and overcoats to specification. All workwear was given a unique barcode reference, including information on the garment’s wearer. This system ensures every garment can be tracked, located and referenced in detailed management service reports.

Each week, phs Besafe collect dirty garments from site for specialist washing at one of its laundries.

Each garment is carefully inspected during the laundry service to look for any signs of wear and tear and any necessary repairs, which will be made before returning it to its owner. A replacement garment will be sourced if it is beyond repair to ensure safety at all times. 

phs Besafe offers a unique, low energy industrial washing process that hygienically and safely cleans garments using eco-friendly products, helping to prolong garments’ lives whilst retaining their crucial safety properties.

To dry garments, Besafe uses its own innovative drying system known as Drysafe. Drysafe uses infrared sensors to constantly monitor the moisture levels in the garments and the core temperature of the drum and halves the time it takes to dry garments. It ensures a constant drying temperature and an automatic stop once the garment is dry; halving the time the machine needs to run, which saves energy and prolongs the life of the garment.

Jo Griffiths, Office & Finance Manager at David Harrison, said: “It’s a year since we started working with phs Besafe and I can honestly say this is the best service we have ever had with our weekly laundry service. We haven’t had any issues and deliveries and collections are always correct and on time. It makes a huge difference to our engineering team knowing that they can rely on Besafe to provide them with clean, dry and safe garments as and when they need them. It also makes my job easier as I know I can depend on their service.”

David Harrison Handling Solutions Ltd in Cambridgeshire supplies machinery to agricultural, industrial and environmental sectors.
