As VP of Global Partnerships, I am thrilled to share our latest innovation - CBN+. But this is more than just another product. Designed exclusively for cruise lines, CBN+ is set to revolutionise how we maintain ships, enhance guest experiences, and optimise operations.
In a nutshell - CBN+ is an onboard cleaning chemical range and dispensing system that includes full installation and project management. And why was it developed? Because we looked at the challenges faced by cruise and saw a critical gap that needed to be addressed.
Cruise lines face unique and demanding challenges in maintaining cleanliness, hygiene, and passenger experience at sea. They are challenges we understand intimately because of our close partnerships with our cruise customers. These customers include Carnival UK and Norwegian Cruise Lines, who we worked with on CBN+ to make it the solution it is today.
The truth is that traditional cleaning solutions are outdated and ineffective at sea. Cruise lines are forced to work with aging and unreliable dispensing systems. Their laundry is not cleaned evenly, and the wrong chemicals are resulting in extreme fading and damage. It has also become complicated and time consuming to train crew on the use of all the different chemicals.
That is why our CBN+ mission was clear from the start: to simplify the dispensing and cleaning process, deliver unparalleled results, and completely streamline the product range for cruise.
To give you a better idea of what makes CBN+ a much better fit for cruise lines than traditional land-based solutions, here are four of the key features that have an immediate impact on operations.
1. Superior cleaning performance: CBN+ delivers exceptional results from surfaces and floors to one of the biggest challenges—laundry. Our dosing systems are extremely effective at cleaning laundry evenly and efficiently, ensuring every item meets the highest standards of hygiene. Even on ships that have had 20+ years in service with the original extractors and tunnel washing machine.
2. Innovative dispensing system: CBN+ employs a state-of-the-art dispensing system powered by Venturi pumps. This technology guarantees higher reliability for dosing and requires minimal maintenance compared to traditional systems. The result? A more efficient, hassle-free cleaning process that sets a new industry standard.
3. Intuitive labelling: Our straightforward number system covers all main areas onboard, making it clear where each product should be used. This simplicity eliminates confusion and boosts the overall efficiency of the cleaning process.
4. Comprehensive project management: We understand that transitioning to a new cleaning system can be challenging and requires commitment to long-term goals. That is why we provide full project management, including installation and training, to ensure a smooth and stress-free switch. Our team of experts is dedicated to supporting your crew every step of the way.
As well as the features of CBN+ which vastly improve and simplify the cleaning process, there are other longer-term benefits that CBN+ provides to your passengers and your crew:
1. Elevated guest experience: A spotless, well-maintained ship significantly enhances the guest experience. With CBN+, passengers enjoy an immaculate environment, boosting their overall satisfaction and loyalty. Passengers will also appreciate that cabin stewards will work much faster with CBN+, which will mean spending less time cleaning their room.
2. Enhanced crew efficiency: By simplifying the cleaning process and providing reliable, user-friendly products, CBN+ empowers the crew to work more efficiently. This not only saves time but also reduces physical strain, leading to a more productive and motivated workforce.
3. Global reach: Our extensive distribution network ensures that CBN+ can be delivered to cruise ships anywhere in the world. This global reach means that no matter where your fleet operates, you can rely on consistent, high-quality cleaning solutions.
4. Commitment to sustainability: CBN+ is designed with sustainability at its core. Our streamlined product range reduces excess storage onboard, and our efficient dispensing systems minimise waste. By choosing CBN+, cruise lines can demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship.
