FORT Facility Kft. - Surface cleaning, cleaning

Crane and crane runway cleaning is a specialist industrial cleaning service used in production halls, factories, warehouses, logistics centres and other industrial environments. The aim of the service is to bring cranes, crane runways and associated structural elements into a cleaner, more organised and easier-to-maintain condition.

Depending on the requirements of the customer, we carry out dust removal, chemical cleaning or dry ice blasting on cranes and crane runways. The appropriate cleaning technology is always selected according to the material and condition of the surface, the level and type of contamination, accessibility and the specific characteristics of the operating environment.

Over time, dust, industrial contamination, oil and grease deposits, as well as contamination caused by regular operation can accumulate on the surfaces of cranes and crane runways. Removing these deposits is important not only for appearance, but also to support maintenance work, condition inspections and operational tasks.

The cleaning technology is selected to ensure that the work is effective, while aiming to protect the existing paintwork and underlying surface. The implementation is always adapted to site operations, occupational safety requirements and operational needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What preparation is required before crane or crane runway cleaning?

Before work begins, we assess the location, height, accessibility and load-bearing conditions of the crane or crane runway, as well as the surrounding operational area. Safe access, designation of the working area, and clarification of how the cleaning relates to existing operational or maintenance processes are all important parts of the preparation.

Does production need to be stopped during the cleaning work?

This depends on the site and the cleaning method. Certain tasks can be carried out in stages and coordinated with ongoing operations, while in other cases a maintenance window or partial shutdown may be required. Our objective is always to carry out the cleaning with as little disruption as possible.

What determines whether dust removal, chemical cleaning or dry ice blasting is required?

For simple dust deposits, dust removal is often sufficient. If the surface contains oil, grease, adhered or more difficult-to-remove industrial contamination, dry ice blasting or chemical cleaning may be more appropriate. The selected technology depends on the type of contamination and the condition of the surface.

How can the cleaning be planned around a maintenance window?

For more complex crane and crane runway cleaning, it is advisable to coordinate the work in advance with a maintenance period, shutdown or reduced production load. During the site assessment, we can determine the required access, equipment, work-area restrictions and schedule.

What determines how long crane and crane runway cleaning takes?

The time required depends on the length of the crane runway, the size of the crane, the level of contamination, working height, accessibility and the selected cleaning technology. Hard-to-reach or heavily contaminated structures may require more preparation and a longer implementation period.

Do we clean crane runways at height?

Yes. We also clean high-level and hard-to-reach crane runways. The working method is selected according to the site conditions, safety requirements and operating environment.

Can the cleaning damage the existing paintwork?

The cleaning technology is always adapted to the specific surface and the condition of the existing paintwork. The aim is to remove contamination effectively while protecting the paintwork and underlying surface as far as possible.

Choosing the right industrial cleaning technology can result in significant time and cost savings.

For more than 35 years, we have been helping our clients select the most effective cleaning and industrial surface cleaning solutions throughout Budapest and across Hungary.
