• Last August Whaleywash Equipment Ltd, Station Road, West Meon, Hants, produced this cou9try's first 'mobile glassfibre commercial vehicle washing arch, with an internal height of 14ft and width of lift. After extensive tests further units have now been supplied to depots in London, the Midlands and Oxford in a range of sizes from the original down to 10ft 6in. by,10ft 6in.
Maintenance has been reduced to a minimum by the use of a glassfibre arch and non-corrodible components, which allows the use of acidic-based materials for cleaning aluminium-bodied vehicles without corroding the washing unit.
Depots having steel arch washes may replace them with the new glassfibre unit, connected to existing water pumping facilities. The cost varies according to individual customer's requirements but complete installations start from £850, installed and guaranteed.
