Award-Winning HSG Expands With Two Key Appointments

Derby-based HSG, a market leader in washroom water conservation and services, has expanded its account management team due to its growing order book.

Clare Taylor and Lynn Devine have both held senior positions at Cannon Hygiene for several years.

They have joined HSG as Senior Account Managers to help the company capitalise on the increasing opportunities from its innovative research and development into new products.

Their appointments coincide with HSG clinching The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in Innovation last month.

HSG was awarded the coveted Award in recognition of the impact that its innovative and unique Ureco system is having on businesses and venues across the UK.

The impact of the announcement has already had a positive impact on the company’s order book alongside the increased engagement in HSG’s launch of the Cleen App and Cleen Dashboard which is the UK’s first fully integrated washroom review and management system.

Clare Taylor, who has been Business Development Manager at Cannon Hygiene since 2011, will lead on the project management of the Cleen App and Dashboard.

The Cleen App is free to download and enables customers and visitors to rate the washrooms in any type of venue from restaurants and shopping centres to sports stadia and airports.

These can then be viewed by other Cleen App users so that they can see which venues have good – and poor – washroom facilities and make a choice to visit accordingly.

In addition to the app, the Cleen Dashboard enables businesses and washroom services providers to have full and immediate access to reviews - highlighting the issues so that they can take action and directly respond to customer feedback.

Lynn Devine joined Cannon Hygiene in 2009 and was Senior Account Manager until recently.  She will manage the needs of major customers for HSG’s washroom services provision as well as the innovative Ureco urinal sleeve and Uretech water management system.

The system is the market leader in this field by using patented technology to improve the washroom environment.

The Ureco stops smells by trapping urinal odours below the surface and reduces blockages through the patented enzyme system which breaks down the fat, acid and salt in urine. This enables the Uretech to reduce urinal flushes from around 96 times to just four times a day - saving money by reducing water consumption by up to 96%.

HSG Managing Director Simon Rice explained: “It has been an amazing few weeks for the company with the news about our success in The Queen’s Award for Enterprise – coinciding with Clare and Lynn joining the team.

“They both bring a wealth of experience and expertise in the washroom services industry and are a huge asset for us as we move forward.”
