Il giorno 2 dicembre 2010, in Parigi presso la sede della UEO, si è tenuto un incontro durante il quale la COLSERVICE, attraverso i suoi legali rappresentanti, Signori Vincenzo Colazzo e Giuseppe Colazzo, ha firmato un protocollo d'intesa con la AAE IHEDN (Associazione Uditori delle sessioni Europee dell'Istituto Alti Studi della Difesa Nazionale) rappresentata dal Presidente Signor Colin Cameron.

COLSERVICE S.r.l. "risultati raggiunti e i progetti futuri dell’Azienda"

La costante innovazione tecnologica e l’approccio sistemico nell’erogazione di servizi per il controllo degli infestanti hanno consentito alla Colservice di diventare un punto di riferimento nazionale nelle attività svolte. L’attenta e rigorosa formazione dei propri Tecnici, unitamente all’esperienza acquisita nella risoluzione delle problematiche legate all’igiene ambientale hanno fatto sì che si creasse una struttura aziendale unica nel settore. Inoltre, la costante collaborazione con Università e Centri di Ricerca Internazionali, ha permesso di approfondire tematiche sulla presenza di particolari infestanti nonché sulle conseguenze igienico-sanitarie nei Paesi Asiatici ed Africani. Tutto ciò ha permesso alla Colservice di raggiungere qualifiche e conoscenze tali da ritenersi pronta ad una reale collaborazione con la Vostra Associazione.

Siamo disponibili ad organizzare corsi di addestramento e di formazione per le attività di controllo degli infestanti a personale militare e paramilitare fornendo linee guida sul controllo degli infestanti nella gestione di campi e basi militari. I corsi, organizzati presso la propria sede o nelle sedi dei Committenti forniranno conoscenze circa i rischi igienico-sanitari e i compiti dei responsabili del pest control e si estenderanno anche nelle aree d’intervento, seguendo il personale che verrà impegnato nelle basi con il compito di pianificare gli interventi necessari.
Le diversificate aree in cui la Colservice è chiamata ad operare richiedono ricerche scientifiche e test mirati per offrire soluzioni immediate e soddisfacenti. Ciò ha richiesto lo sviluppo di un Laboratorio Entomologico, fulcro dell’attività di Pest Control e realtà unica nel panorama delle aziende private. Le principali attività riguardano l’identificazione tassonomica degli infestanti di interesse Medico-Veterinario, l’elaborazione di piani d’intervento specifici e la realizzazione di prove di efficacia su prodotti ratticidi, insetticidi e repellenti di natura sintetica e di estrazione vegetale. Disponiamo di 2 container attrezzati per affrontare le emergenze worldwide e per fornire soluzioni rapide alle problematiche presenti. Il laboratorio mobile esegue l’identificazione delle specie infestanti e consente di effettuare tutti i test e le prove necessarie per una riuscita ottimale dei nostri interventi.
La Colservice è disponibile a costituire partnership con Aziende interne all’Associazione per attività di consulenza tecnico-scientifica, attività di scouting e per l’esecuzione di bonifiche ambientali. Infatti, nelle aree destinate alla realizzazione di basi militari, ospedali da campo e tendopoli, tali attività risultano indispensabili per valutare la presenza di infestanti in relazione alle caratteristiche orografiche, topografiche ed ecologiche dell’area. Estese a strutture e fabbricati destinati ad ospitare personale civile e militare permettono di ristabilire condizioni di salubrità ed igiene negli ambienti.
La presenza a pochi chilometri dalla nostra sede di Nardò dell’Aeroporto Militare di Galatina (LE), potrà diventare un punto d’incontro per il personale interessato ai nostri corsi di formazione e  agevolare gli spostamenti nei vari “teatri d’intervento”.
 

Colservice Ltd was founded in 2000 because we were willing to merge the field expertise of operators who have been working in Environmental Hygiene for three generations with the most modern knowledge stemming from scientific research within the pest control and decontamination fields.
When working together with our clients our aim is to train them to look after and protect the environment and human health as we are continuously inspired by our “Philosophy of the three Cs”: Continuity, Constancy, Certainty.
Continuity – we go through continuing professional development to meet our clients’ needs as best as we can at all times;
Constancy – we are constantly researching the most innovative solutions and the most up-to-date technologies;
Certainty – we are certain to be leaders in our market.

We aim at protecting the environment you live in.

Colservice works are commissioned by well-known public and private companies. The network of facilities strategically placed across our geographical area (hydrocarbon storage facilities, waterworks, pharmaceutical factories, power stations) helped Colservice to develop highly-skilled technical, operational and financial know-how.
Combining advanced techniques, products with a low impact on the environment and highly skilled personnel, Colservice prides itself on offering:
Water processing Colservice creates and looks after the maintenance of water supply networks and sewerage systems. We design water lifting and purification devices and we also provide emergency assistance with the help of our vast number of tankers thus guaranteeing to residents involved immediate access to their houses.
Sewerage video inspection Thanks to digital support and HD image resolution, pipe and sewerage video inspection enable Colservice to determine and find out the exact location of potential burst, broken or blocked pipes, thus allowing for their prompt repair.
Video inspection for public security purposes Requests for stronger public security measures coming from public institutions, military authorities as well as from citizens led Colservice to develop video inspection facilities useful for thoroughly inspecting pipes. This service is implemented to help apply security measures during institutional visits or to protect public streets, diplomatic offices or other sensitive areas so that we are able to promptly identifying any underground threat.
Odour control systems Colservice plans and carries out odour control system works neutralising any odours in animal farms, mortuaries, dumping grounds and factory plants.
Grass treatment services Chemical and mechanical weed control eliminating unwanted weeds. Thanks to the professional advice of Entomologists and Botanists Colservice also provides clients with weed control programmes and phytosanitary treatments.
Environmental Hygiene Colservice carries out land improvement and water decontamination works to restore, protect and preserve primary elements such as soil and water. Our company is licensed to transport and dispose of special and hazardous waste.
Disinfection Operates in hospitals, offices and sensitive areas disinfecting the premises from viruses, bacteria and pathogenic micro organisms. When carried out in vehicles or on mobile facilities, this service guarantees their complete disinfection. Besides, Colservice specialises in the deep cleaning and sanitization of drinking water tanks and air conditioning appliances.
Pest Control Our passion and dedication involved in our staff continuous professional development and the use of Integrated Pest Management techniques with a low impact on the environment enabled Colservice to develop high quality pest control, rat extermination and disinfection services so that we are able to guarantee excellent living standards in both civil and military environments. By complying with European regulations in terms of food and work safety Colservice has become a leading company in enforcing these regulations.
In fact, pest control and rat extermination services are provided thanks to high tech equipment enabling us to achieve our goals: prompt action, low impact on the environment and long-lasting results. Colservice can also operate emergency pest control services worldwide and offers short or long term pest control planning and assistance.
Colservice is able to offer our clients effective and safe pest control services as a result of a dynamic and efficient company management. Analysing problems and rapidly applying solutions allow us to provide our clients with tailor-made services.
We are also authorized to carry out fumigations by using toxic gases as a pest control technique when treating foodstuffs, wood infestation and museum collections.
Our wide range of pest control services is further completed as we also specialize in installing devices systems for bird control.
Colservice uses modern information and remote sensing technologies to better manage monitoring and pest control services. Each one of our vehicles is equipped with GPS devices (Global Positioning System). Data integration with GIS software (Geographic Information System) allows us to calculate routes, duration of the intervention programmes and quickness of treatments in real time. Use of PDA devices makes filing data on site inspection, monitoring and interventions much easier.
The Entomologic Laboratory represents the core of our Pest Control activities. Its main activities involve taxonomic classification of vermin and pests from a medical and veterinary point of view, planning appropriate intervention schemes and testing the efficacy of the solutions found on rat poisons, insecticides and chemical or vegetable repellents (harmless for humans and not-targeted animals). The different areas whereupon Colservice is called to act require indeed scientific research and specific tests in order for us to be able to offer immediate and satisfying results.
Actually, vermin put human health in danger and are widespread all over the world. Certain climates or environments, poor health conditions, natural or war catastrophes can have a huge impact on vermin and pest development.
If present in military structure, vermin constitute a health risk factor as well as bringing psychological distress to soldiers and military staff.
The presence and development of pests and vermin in uncontrolled emergency areas (refugee camps, military bases and temporarily built facilities) require quick and effective interventions. Pest control and prevention also calls for techniques, products and plans of intervention that only highly-specialized companies as Colservice are able to provide.
Colservice owns two containers equipped to work in cases of emergency and offer prompt solutions to the current problem in question. Our mobile Lab enables us to identify the infesting species so that we can then take all the necessary tests and provide our clients with optimal results.
Specialized Training Courses Colservice organizes pest and vermin control training courses for military and paramilitary staff. Our technicians and experts will train staff who will be in charge of planning the necessary pest control programmes in their bases. Courses can be held at Colservice’s headquarters or on the client’s premises, they will outline guidelines for pest control when managing military camps and bases, calculate potential hygiene risks and assess the duties of the personnel in charge of pest control services.
Scouting and land development Colservice provides scouting and land analysis in areas destined to military bases, field hospitals and tent cities to assess the presence of vermin related to the orographic, topographic and environmental characteristics of the area in question. These activities can also be applied to facilities for the use of civil and military staff accommodation.

To sum up, over the last few years, Colservice has tried to reach the world in order to let people know and appreciate its operation tools, looking for every kind of co-operation abroad. In fact, ultimately, the valuable co-operation with the Yangsu Wuyang Group based in Shanghai has enabled us to increase the research and development activities of our business department and thanks to these activities we have gone up in our clients’ estimation in a short time. We are about to open up a new branch in Rome, where we are going to strengthen our image and action, and in doing this our goal is to become a domestic and European landmark in our market in order to confirm our highly-skilled know-how, to consolidate our continuous keeping up to date with technological innovation and to develop the systematic approach to the services we offer.

1. What reasons led Colservice to extend its business outside Italy?

Ongoing technologic innovation and systematic approach when providing our pest control services made us a national landmark in our field. Thorough and dedicated training given to our Technicians together with their expertise gained over assisting in the solutions of problems related to environmental hygiene allowed us to build up our own company network thus differentiating ourselves from other competitors. We take on new challenges as we are confident in thinking that new clients add value to our company and also allow us to extend our reach to China increasing our development and research activities.
Furthermore, our continued co-operation with international Universities and Research centres enables Colservice to investigate on the presence of specific pest agents and on the hygienic consequences involved in the Asiatic and African countries. All of these processes granted Colservice an extensive knowledge and qualifications so that our company is now able to take on new challenges.
We can, especially, arrange training courses on pest control for military, paramilitary and civilian staff providing guidelines on controlling pests when managing military camps and bases or in areas of strategic interests. Courses can be organized at Colservice’s headquarters or on the customer’s premises and we can also provide information on the hygiene risks pests involve. The duties of our Technicians can be extended to cover the intervention areas where they can assist staff who will be in charge of the bases by planning together the interventions required.

2. What are your strengths?

The different areas where our expertise is called to act request scientific research and specific tests in order to achieve quick and satisfying results. This has meant implementing an Entomologic Lab, the core of pest control activities, a unique resource which again sets our company apart from our private competitors. The Lab’s main activities include taxonomic classification of vermin and pests from a medical and veterinary point of view, elaborating tailor-made plans of intervention and taking tests on the efficacy of our products on rat poisons, insecticides and synthetic or vegetable repellents. In fact, we also own two equipped containers which enable us to act on emergencies worldwide and thus successfully solve the pest case in question. Our mobile Lab identifies the infesting species in question and allows us to take all the necessary tests and evidence in order for our interventions to be carried out successfully.

3. What are your future plans?

At Colservice we welcome partnerships with other companies and we offer technical and scientific consulting services, scouting and environmental decontaminations. These activities are especially essential when developing military bases, field hospitals and tent cities in order to assess the possible presence of vermin based on the orographic, topographic and environmental characteristics of the area. Moreover, when such activities are extended to buildings and facilities for the use of civil and military staff these allow to re-establish environmental health and safety conditions.
Our headquarters in Nardò are just a few kilometres away from the Military Airport of Galatina (LE-Italy) so that our location can be a meeting point for anyone interested in our training courses and can also facilitate transfers to the areas requiring intervention.
