Follow the 'Roadmap out of Lockdown' to

arrive at your dream holiday destination!

Go beyond compliance to provide Water, Air and Surface Hygiene

As we follow the ‘Roadmap out of Lockdown’, go beyond compliance to provide Water, Air and Surface Hygiene to ensure a happy and healthy experience for your visitors and employees alike.

Nijhuis Saur Industries can help you to achieve official “We’re Good to Go”TM status for tourism and hospitality businesses which have a COVID-19 risk assessment in place as well as processes to maintain cleanliness. Let us guide you along the roadmap and take you on a path from current practice, via good practice and all the way through to best practice.

You offer Happy, Healthy Holidays to your visitors:A carefree and fun experience with the peace of mind (based on clean water and general hygiene) to enable them to relax and enjoy the vacation that they deserve!

We provide Reduce, Reuse, Recover for your water:The Legionella Risk Assessment can be used to eliminate risk and identify areas for water savings, whilst localised water recycling initiatives (such as Pee to Tea) showcase your green credentials.

As we all start to re-engage with the physical world, the visible implementation of best practice will serve to both reassure holiday-makers and differentiate leisure providers. Water quality has always been a top priority for the leisure sector. This includes:

"Water quality has always been a top priority for the leisure sector."

Potable WaterChemical, microbiological and legionella control of hot & cold water services (tanks, taps, showers).

Swimming PoolsChemical and microbiological control as well as technical pool and plant room inspections.

Hot TubsCritical microbiological and legionella control of water, aerosols and surfaces.

Waste WaterFor on-site treatment systems, S&M or O&M agreements serve to optimise operation and maintain design capacity.

With air and surface hygiene now added to this list, the post-COVID challenge for the efficient and effective operation of leisure facilities is significant.
