Mattress Cleaning with IQ Student Accommodation

IQ Student Accommodation are a well-established accommodation provider with properties located close to universities across 27 UK cities. Having identified the potential for reuse in their industry they enlisted the services of Bulky Bob’s for Business to deep clean 74 mattresses from one of their properties in Preston using our UltraClean Mattress Machine.

The UltraClean Mattress Machine is the first automated machine created to clean domestic and contract quality mattresses using a seven stage process:

  • Inspection
  • Pre-Cleaning
  • Steam Cleaning and Vacuuming
  • Biocidal Ozone Immersion
  • Ultra-Violet Sanitising
  • Drying
  • Final Inspection

This process ensures high quality, pre-loved mattresses, which may have been destined for landfill or broken down into parts for recycling are returned to an almost brand new condition with levels of sanitisation acceptable in a hospital setting.

The IQ Students understood the positive impact of replacing the mattresses and the negative and damaging effects not doing this has on our environment.

We would like to encourage other businesses to follow the lead of IQ Student Accommodation and make more sustainable choices by reusing where possible.

Did you know?

The disposal of a used mattress most often involves the product heading to straight to landfill if recycling options are not pursued. Even the production of a new mattress requires masses of energy and materials to be exerted.
