Modular Above-Ground Wash Bays for a High-Volume Car Valeting Site in Stratford
A busy car valeting operator in Stratford approached us in need of a practical, compliant, and high-capacity washing solution for their growing business. Operating from leased premises, the client faced strict limitations: the landowner would not permit any civil works and there were no available drainage connections on-site. Despite these constraints, the site needed a system capable of handling continuous daily washing of multiple vehicles.

Water Reclamation Solution Achieves 97% Water Recycling Efficiency for a Leading Client in Qatar
In Qatar, water is a precious and costly resource, with freshwater prices significantly higher than in many other regions. The scarcity of natural water sources, combined with high desalination costs, places tremendous pressure on industries to reduce water consumption and optimise water usage. A prominent manufacturing facility based in Qatar faced the dual challenge of managing high water costs and dealing with the significant environmental impact of wastewater generated by the washing of oily and greasy equipment. This operation required an efficient solution to not only cut costs but also comply with environmental regulations concerning wastewater disposal.

Rainwater Harvesting System for Winter Maintenance Vehicle Washing in the Public Sector
In response to the growing demand for sustainable water management solutions, a public sector client responsible for winter maintenance operations in a northern region faced a challenge. The client needed a reliable and eco-friendly solution to wash down their winter maintenance vehicles, which are heavily contaminated with road salt, grime and other debris. These vehicles are used for snow ploughing and salting operations, which often leave them in need of thorough cleaning after each use.
With an increasing focus on reducing water consumption, controlling operational costs, and promoting sustainability, the client sought a solution that would allow them to wash their fleet using harvested rainwater, minimising their reliance on expensive municipal water systems.
