Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Willow Creek Care Home in York needed to replace their old, cumbersome cleaning carts. Their narrow corridors and tight corners made maneuvering the old units a daily challenge for their housekeeping staff.
"The old trolleys were a nightmare in our building. This Numatic one just glides around corners, and having everything on open shelves saves our team precious minutes on every task. It’s brilliantly practical and has made a real difference to the flow of our day."
Robert Green – Facilities Manager
The switch resulted in a reported 20% reduction in time spent on routine cleaning tasks, allowing staff to focus more on resident care and detailed cleaning.

Explore more from NumaticWhat Makes 'Structofoam' So Tough?
You'll see 'Structofoam' mentioned, but what does it actually mean for you? Think of it less like standard plastic and more like the carbon fibre used in high-performance sports equipment. It's a special, heavy-duty co-polymer that Numatic has perfected, giving it incredible strength while keeping it surprisingly lightweight. This means daily bumps against door frames, lifts, and furniture won't cause the cracks and fractures you see in cheaper carts. It's engineered to absorb impacts, which is why your trolley will last years longer, making it a much smarter long-term investment.
