Braby Service, based in Lincolnshire, has completed its first order with OCS for the maintenance of a 30ft (9m) flour silo at Allied Bakeries in Cardiff. Contractor OCS employed Braby Service, the servicing division of Braby, to carry out a full inspection and a thorough dry clean of the internal walls of the silo.
With the use of specialist photographic techniques, pictures were taken to establish the internal condition of the silo and a full report was made to OCS and Allied Bakeries. Roger Neal, service division manager, said: 'The specialist photography is an integral part of the service.
'The exterior of the silo is usually very serviceable, but the internal condition is more difficult to establish. 'The option to take internal pictures of a silo helps us evaluate what may not normally be seen,' he added. The entire cleaning and maintenance project was completed in five days.
