New Member Focus - A&M Industrial Cleaning
As part of our member Q&A series we grab five minutes with Andrew Barnett, Owner of new ADCAS member company - A&M Industrial Cleaning - to find out more on the company, their reasons for joining ADCAS and the issues that matter most to them.

At A&M we specialise in the removal of grease, particularly prone areas like ducting, fans, kitchen extract and filters. We also clean air ventilation ducting
- How did A&M Industrial Cleaning learn about ADCAS and what were the factors involved in applying for membership?
We have a health and safety consultant how advised us to apply for membership with Build UK and they in turn recommended ADCAS as a ductwork industry trade association who could help us.
- What are A&M Industrial Cleaning looking for from their ADCAS membership?
ADCAS expertise will help A&M gain more knowledge around air ventilation ducting.
- What do A&M Industrial Cleaning see as the main issues/challenges within the ductwork industry?
There are not enough training centres in the south east for small companies.
- What changes would A&M Industrial Cleaning like to see in the building services sector over the coming years?
We don’t really do a lot of work on building sites but when we do then the work is normally a one off clean. Our main problem is CSCS cards to gain access to construction site.
