Studio Hamburg GmbH is an important service provider for film and television companies. Alongside its subsidiaries, the company is one of the leading providers for film and TV productions, documentaries and entertainment programming – from “Tatort” (Scene of the Crime) to “das Traumschiff” (The Dream Boat) and the “Großstadtrevier” (Big City Police Station). Set building is one of the company's key business areas. With around 800 permanent and over 800 freelance employees, Studio Hamburg is one of the most important employers in this Hanseatic city. Its customers include both public and private broadcasters as well as freelance film and television producers.
Large quantities of wood are processed in the five warehouses of the carpentry workshop – part of the set building department – sometimes in very large dimensions. With around 100 employees, it is likely the largest carpentry workshop in Hamburg. The carpenters are almost always working on challenging projects, and producing significant quantities of dust and chips. Powerful vacuum cleaners are essential for their work.
A Ruwac vacuum cleaner is used in each warehouse for cleaning the floors and machinery. The devices are designed for use in dust explosion hazard areas, and are prized for their excellent flexibility. They provide fast cleaning of large floor areas, and can suction out fine milled holes in decorations and set pieces.
The oldest of the vacuum cleaners was built in 1996, although older units are currently being replaced over time. The film studio is also converting from three-phase to AC motors which, they have found, remain economical to operate for longer.
