CPD on Façade Cleaning

As an integral part of your Continued Professional Development (CPD), let Styles Façade Solutions^® (formerly Thomann-Hanry^®) help develop your understanding of commercial building facade cleaning methods.

A building’s façade is a key factor in its commercial and architectural value and understanding how to maintain it is essential for property professionals.

Styles Façade Solutions® delivering an educational CPD seminar on Understanding Dry, Non-Abrasive Façade Cleaning. The session shares expert knowledge on gentle heritage cleaning techniques, using carved stone façade imagery to demonstrate best practice methods for protecting delicate architectural detailing during restoration works.

CPD: SPECIALIST SEMINARS ON NON-ABRASIVE FAÇADE CLEANING

Our CPD seminars on façade cleaning are designed for architects, building consultants, building surveyors, facility managers, and commercial property owners. Our seminars have been approved and previously accredited by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) CPD Providers Network and is also available via the Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) Academy portal.

WHAT IS A CPD SEMINAR?

Used across many professional bodies, Continued Professional Development enables industry professionals to manage their own development on an ongoing basis. It also helps ensure their skillset and knowledge remain current.

It is mandatory for architects and architectural technologists in the UK to undertake at least 35 hours of learning throughout the year – or a minimum of 100 learning points. Our CPD facade cleaning course is self-certifying, with points awarded based on the technical depth of the learning content.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

The primary learning objective of our CPD session is to gain a better understanding of dry, non-abrasive façade cleaning and how it compares with more traditional methods.

We take an in-depth look at:

Traditional façade cleaning methods: Evaluating the benefits and drawbacks of water-based and abrasive techniques.
Operational challenges: Examining access issues, water containment and waste management
Potential impacts: Analysing the effects of cleaning operations on building occupants and the public.
The dry, non-abrasive alternative: Exploring how non-abrasive methods maximise speed, value and sustainability while minimising disruption.

Our in-house seminars take approximately 45 minutes and are scheduled in your offices to coincide with staff or team meetings if preferred.

All delegates receive a certificate of attendance and a handout of our presentation for future reference.
