At phs Teacrate, we’re proud to announce a major milestone in our journey to deliver exceptional crate hire and washing services. The installation of our new wash machines at the Curdworth site represents more than just an operational upgrade - it’s a statement of intent. This investment reinforces our position as the UK’s market leader and sets a new benchmark for hygiene, efficiency, and environmental responsibility within the industry.
Why This Matters: Enhanced Capability
The new wash machines dramatically increase our washing capacity, enabling us to process every type of crate on the market with speed and precision. It’s a leap forward in operational capability, ensuring we can meet growing customer demand while maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness and reliability.
Efficiency, Quality, and Service - Redefined
• Efficiency: Faster washing and drying cycles mean reduced turnaround times, helping customers keep their operations moving without delay.
• Quality: Built from high-grade stainless steel and equipped with cutting-edge hygiene technology, the machines deliver a superior clean - even on heavily soiled totes and pallets - while preventing contamination and extending crate lifespan.
• Service: Increased capacity and reliability allow us to reduce lead times and consistently deliver the high standard of service our customers expect.
What This Means for Our Customers
For existing clients, this investment translates into quicker turnaround, improved hygiene compliance, and greater confidence in the quality of their crates. For prospective customers, it’s proof of our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and service excellence - key differentiators that make phs Teacrate the partner of choice in the UK crate market.
Driving Sustainability Forward
Beyond operational improvements, the new wash machines support our sustainability goals. Using advanced water recycling and energy-efficient technology, it reduces water consumption by more than 50% compared to the older machines - just six litres per hour versus 15 litres. This not only lowers environmental impact but also helps our customers meet their own green targets. By combining operational excellence with eco-friendly practices, we deliver solutions that benefit both our clients and the planet.
At phs Teacrate, innovation isn’t just about exciting new technology - it’s about creating value for our customers and making a positive impact on the environment. The new wash machines are a testament to that vision.
