History
Here at OCS they are very proud of their long history - the company is now in its fifth generation of family ownership.
The business was started in 1900 by Frederick William Goodliffe operating as a sole trader under the name of The New Century Window and General Cleaning Company.
Initially, the company comprised one part-time man equipped with a ladder, a pail and a pushcart.
From such modest beginnings, OCS has grown into an international group providing integrated facilities services in over 50 countries.
