Our disinfection removes bacteria

Galley extraction systems become contaminated very quickly dueon ships

to there frequent use.

The build up of hot oils and fats within the extract ductwork can

present a serious fire risk if steps are not taken to remove all flammable

substances.

In fact, if your kitchen extract system caught fire and you were unable to

provide a certificate to prove it was cleaned recently your insurance

liability may be affected.

Amphibia deep clean service ensure flammable contaminants’s s any

and fire risks are controlled. A cleaning conformity certificate is provided

on completion.

The air handlers and ductwork systems on board a vessel supply and

extract air to/from spaces throughout the ship. In doing so, these systems

control quality of breathing air to and sensitiveprotect personnel

equipment from potentially hazardous airborne contaminants, fires,

explosions, and excessive heat.

When in a contaminated state, these systems can lose efficiency, fail to

supply safe air, cause and even causemalfunction fire hazards

Many ventilation ducts are so small and inaccessible that cleaning

becomes problematic and some areas are extremely hard to clean

adequately. Our cleaning systems are designed to work in the tightest

spaces where manual access would be impossible using the latest
