80 years young - Kärcher Marks Eight Decades Of Innovation At Iconic Concorde Hangar

As part of its year-long celebration to mark 80 years of technological innovation, Kärcher will be showcasing its latest professional cleaning products at the iconic Concorde Hangar based at Manchester Airport.

“Synonymous with innovation, resilience and advanced technology, the Concorde Hangar is the perfect backdrop to celebrate Kärcher’s 80th birthday,” said Simon Keeping, Managing Director of Kärcher UK. “For over 80 years, we have been focused on creating efficient, economic and sustainable cleaning solutions for professionals across a range of industries. We understand the immense pressures businesses face when it comes to cleaning and this insight is what drives our product development forward,” he added.

On show will be Kärcher’s full range of professional cleaning equipment as well as live demonstrations and a chance to tour the iconic Concorde. The event will also unveil some of Kärcher’s newest product lines including the new SGV 8/5 self-cleaning steam vacuum cleaner.

Kärcher’s 80th birthday celebrations will also pay homage to some of the world-class cultural projects Kärcher has cleaned around the globe. From Mount Rushmore in the USA to the London Eye and the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, there really is no limit to how far Kärcher will go to break boundaries and set records.

Simon added: “Innovation remains the cornerstone of the Kärcher business, inspiring our very first hot water pressure washer in the 1950s to the high-tech self-cleaning steam vacuum cleaners we have now. Today we celebrate the past 80 years and look ahead to our future innovations – all in the shadow of Concorde, an inspired piece of technology and engineering.”     

The Kärcher 80th anniversary celebratory event will take place on Tuesday 19th May 2015 at the Concorde Hangar, which is based at Manchester Airport. To sign up, visit their website here.
