Welcome to the

Cleanzine - the original Cleaning & Hygiene industry e-news
Read by industry professionals in 148 countries worldwide!
We've had two lots of great news this week...
First, Prochem Europe has just been awarded the Royal Warrant. You can't get much more of an accolade than that - it really is a commendation of the highest order, so our congratulations to the Prochem team who've worked so hard over the years to build a brand worthy of use in the Royal Household.
Second, Vectair Systems' Matthew Wonnaccot, left for dead by a hit & run driver early in December, finally came out of hospital a few days before Christmas, "bruised, battered and broken but still maintaining a great spirit," according to Matt's father Paul. We understand that he is making great progress although he still has some issues with his liver (where he is nursing a four inch tear) and diaphragm that his consultants are keeping an eye on. His neck and back fractures and his ribs are repairing well although one of the clamps on his ribs might need some attention. "But all in all he is doing as well if not better than we expected!" says Paul.
Excellent news and we hope to be catching up with Matt at ISSA/Interclean, which isn't really that far off!
Of course we will, as usual, be producing our Show Daily, so do please let us know what you'll be exhibiting there so we can give you some coverage. We go out to 148 countries so your news will have the widest possible audience.
Also, we are producing an exterior cleaning feature in Cleanzine's 16th February issue, so if you have anything to say on the matter - wherever you are in the world - please make sure you send your editorial contributions to me for consideration without delay. I look forward to hearing from you...
Yours,

This Week's News
We have mail: Disposal of Reusable Items
Dear Jan,
I just want to let you know your leader article struck a massive chord with me. As someone involved in resource management I realise that I am occasionally overzealous in my opinions relating to this area. However, while I know I have to concede that people will need (or want) to dispose of items that have not reached the end of their lives, there is absolutely no reason why individuals have to dispose of them to landfill. A tiny bit of thought will almost certainly find an alternative solution.
Keep up the good work.
Kind regards,
Mike
