Duisburg | 07.05.2012 | CWS-boco International Company Results 2011
Duisburg, 7 May 2012. CWS-boco International closed fiscal 2011 (ended on 31 December 2011) with sales of EUR 748 million, equating to growth of around 2 percent as against the preceding year's figure of EUR 734 million. Sales adjusted for currency effects were at around the preceding year's level. The company's results benefited in 2011 from the economic recovery in Central Europe and the initial positive effects from the "Focus Future" strategic realignment programme. The operating result rose highly satisfactorily by EUR 26 million to EUR 41 million as consequence of operational improvements and lower one-off expenses than in fiscal 2010.
Duisburg/Amsterdam | 27.04.2012 | CWS presents its new Washroom Information Service at ISSA/Interclean
Duisburg/Amsterdam, 27 April 2012. In recent decades CWS has launched numerous technical innovations relating to washroom hygiene, for example sensors which allow non-touch operation, cotton towel dispensers featuring a retraction system, which automatically retract the used portions and the roll end, and the two-chamber system which prevents the fresh and used portions of the cotton towel rolls touching one another. CWS has now scored a hit with the intelligent CWS Washroom Information Service (WIS). The system provides the operator with various information, in real time, about the status of dispensers, for example whether the dispenser should be refilled. CWS, the cleaning staff and washroom operators are thus promptly informed when the existing cotton towel roll is running low. The Washroom Information Service system can also be retrofitted to existing CWS ParadiseLine dispensers. Alternatively, it is possible to install dispensers in which the system is already established. During the ISSA/Interclean trade show in Amsterdam (8 to 11 May 2012) CWS experts will be explaining the benefits of the system, which is still in its pilot phase to date, on Stand 11.103 in Hall 11. CWS Washroom Information Service is nominated out of seventy-one applications for the ISSA/Interclean Amsterdam Innovation Award and is one of the last three nominees in the category Equipment/tools for cleaning, care and safety.
