Changing the Way we Clear Garden/Yard Waste Forever

Pioneering Pet Waste Clearance

After 8 years of selling in the UK, and more recently the U.S and some of Europe and Australia, we are now looking for a forward thinking manufacturer to help us produce the next version and launch to the masses across the globe.

Let’s start with animal waste but the harmful kind, like fox and dog waste and let’s begin in the millions of homes across the globe that have to use their garden/yard space as a play area and a toilet for dogs and stray animals. 

Let’s watch this process we call scoop-flush/spray technology in action.

Everyone knows a hoover uses suction - Dyson was responsible for progressing the concept to a bagless process. Consumers understand this is a development of the hoover concept and many expect hoovers to be bagless now.

A washing machine uses water in a powerful drum that spins to wash clothes clothes more effectively than a washboard did. This too, is a development of the original concept - before draining and drying were then introduced. Many of us expect draining and drying with our washing machines now.

Mowers have evolved from manual push cutters to variations of clever ways to trim and prune lawns - even robotic versions are becoming the norm now. 

All are established processes that have naturally progressed over time and exceeded original concepts.

Hoovering, sweeping, cleaning windows, washing clothes, cleaning cars, mopping floors - these chores all have familiar processes attached to them and there are many different gadgets and tools to aid them. 

A cleaning process that clears (lifts) waste from the ground while automatically spraying the affected area is extremely useful for any kind of unhygienic and hazardous waste. The user could successful clear and store waste while the affected area is sprayed with a sanitising fluid to ensure area remains safe. This is particularly important in areas where it is necessary to share space with the vulnerable, such as children and animals. 

Disruptive Innovation

The dooup can be likened to a kind of 'disruptive innovation', in that it replaces a cumbersome, unpleasant, daily chore with a logical, easy and hygienic process suited to garden owners all across the world.

Ron Hickman's WorkMate Work bench was ignored for over ten years before a well established manufacturer recognised its worth but that was after rejecting it previously. 

There are more people clearing hazardous waste (dog poo, fox poo, rotting fruit, dead rodents etc) from gardens and yards than there are DIYers. 

The scaleability for this product along with its consumables market, is formidable.

With some design changes, the product is well suited to commercial sectors as well as residential global markets. 

The prospect of turning waste into energy presents further opportunity that works to future proof the success of a manufacturer, should they be willing to be proactive in this area.
