Based in Monifieth, Dundee, the company is one of a
select group of approved Doff users around the UK who
are licensed to use the machinery.
Stonehealth, based in Cam near Dursley in Gloucestershire, has recently launched the Doff III, the third
iteration of its iconic superheated steam cleaning machine
favoured by architects, specifiers and cleaning industry
professionals in the UK and worldwide.
Company chairman Brian Crowe said: “It is always a
pleasure to see our equipment being properly used
on iconic buildings around the UK, supporting the
conservation of our nation’s cultural heritage.
“Many local authorities, architects and other specifiers
who are issuing contracts for the cleaning and restoration
of old buildings are specifically requesting that our
equipment be used, as it is so highly regarded and
renowned in the industry.
With specialist knowledge of the industry, our products have
been proven to effectively clean masonry without damage.
The Stonehealth DOFF and TORC systems have been used on
some of Britain’s most iconic landmarks, such as Westminster
Abbey, Tower of London and Canterbury Cathedral.
“We look forward to seeing the results of EcoGuard’s
ongoing work in Dundee and will share in the pride of the
people of the city as its historic landmarks return to their
former glories.”

DOFF is a steam based stone
cleaning system. It is unlike any
other steam system and can
achieve temperatures of 150°C
at the nozzle end. The operator is
able to vary the temperature and
pressure to remove many types
of paint or biological matter.
Clean-Film is a latex paste that
is applied to internal surfaces to
remove dirt, stains and pollution.
This product does not use water
and there is no risk of leaving
salts or other chemical residues.
There are no chemical after
effects to the substrate.
The TORC System is a complete
stone cleaning system
designed and sold exclusively
by Stonehealth. The TORC
system creates a gentle swirling
vortex using a mixture of low air
pressure, little water and a safe
inert fine granulate.
