WashTec is committed to sustainability

WashTec, a leader in the international in the car wash sector, is committed to caring for the environment and sustainability in the washing facilities of its customers, offering them water recovery systems that allow the continuous activity of their businesses.

Spain and much of Europe is currently experiencing a period of drought and little rainfall. That is why the German company is working on developing efficient technology that reduces water and electricity consumption in the face of possible government restrictions to reduce environmental impact.

In this sense, WashTec highlighted "the importance of introducing water recovery and treatment systems to promote the responsible use of water in washing centres and to be able to continue with the activity in the face of these restrictions".

"The need for the use of recuperators, which reuse up to 90% of the water used in each wash is critical. Specifically between fourteen and 30 liters per wash compared to 120 and 170 litres per wash without water recycling. In addition, with this type of systems the pollutant load of the resulting water is reduced in the different phases of washing, thus preventing the risk of legionella in the facilities, "said sources of the company in a press release.

Among the different Washtec water treatment solutions, the 'AquaPur' recuperator stands out, a compact and efficient system, which reduces consumption in the installation and allows the activity to continue regardless of environmental circumstances. In addition, thanks to its modular design, it allows easy and adaptable installation at the customer's site.

"Saving and betting on practices that are more sustainable and respectful are key axes for companies and businesses that want to survive the coming years. Not only because they are more efficient and sustainable, but also because users are increasingly opting for environmentally committed companies that really apply sustainable policies."

Finally, the most innovative technology in washing bridges, such as the new 'SmartCare', has systems that allow the control of the dosage in chemical product, thus reducing its consumption.
