SIDEKICK Make the Switch
Published on:One of our most longstanding customers, SIDEKICK GROUP, recently asked us to consult on sustainable products as part of their NetZero commitment and journey to BCorp.
Already a forward-thinking business, Angela and Pete wanted to have the same positive impact with cleaning products as they have enjoyed with paper consumables, having switched the majority of products to Katrin in 2021.
Across all their sites, SIDEKICK will now use soluCLEAN products which eliminates both the transportation of water in cleaning chemicals and the use of single use plastics.
Angela Vohmann, Group COO had this to say, 'We are really excited to roll out soluCLEAN. Our team are ready for this change, and it ensures we make good on our client commitment to providing only the most ethically responsible products on their premises.
The operational benefits are very compelling. Smaller physical stock means higher capacity in our cleaning stores. This means less ordering administration for the SIDEKICK and Source teams and fewer deliveries which is another obvious win the environment'.


The switch to soluCLEAN will immediately reduce their carbon footprint.
Eradicating ready-to-use cleaning chemicals in favour of soluble sachets instantly halts xxxxx of single use plastics from going to landfill per year.
It also means xxxx less CO2, by not shipping heavy, water-based products around the country.
soluCLEAN National Sales Manager, Marcus McDonald, is enthused by another large-scale switch. 'With the fastest growing FM company in the UK coming onboard with soluCLEAN, there are grounds for real optimism. All parties not only understand the need for positive change but are willing to act.”
Clients, FM provider (SIDEKICK) and the distributor, Source, all deserve credit for committing to not just talking the talk but walking the walk. It's a pleasure to work with people in the supply chain who share our values.'
