Maxxclean, a Satellite customer in Europe, has launched a campaign which is aimed at creating a fresh new look for the portable restroom. Through a combination of savy marketing, sports team endorsements and targeted marketing, they have caught the attention of the industry. Earlier this month, they held opening ceremonies of their new corporate headquarters that featured a 2 story Maxim 3000 bouncing ride (pictured) which will be used later on at sporting events and special events. One more example of how Satellite customers continue to forge ahead with industry innovations.
