The Ultimate Carwash Experience
Recycling water in the carwash: invisible, but essential for customer and employee alike
It is a situation that many entrepreneurs will recognise: a customer decides to test with another supplier. Sometimes painful, but sometimes valuable. For example, we recently discovered with a customer within four weeks what happens when recycling water gets out of balance. Fortunately, we cannot yet transmit smells online, but the smell that hung in the car wash was really awful. The analysis showed: extremely polluted water, full of bacteria. This is not only bad for the customer experience, but also detrimental to the health of employees.
This is not only bad for customer perception, but also detrimental to employees’ health.
Recycled water: more than an eco-friendly choice
Many people think of sustainability when they think of recycle water, and rightly so. But it is also a crucial factor in the daily operation of a carwash. Odour, clarity, foam level and even machine life are all affected by the quality of recycled water.
Here, the difference between biodegradable and recyclable water is often overlooked:
- Biodegradable: products break down into natural substances without harmful residues.
- Recyclable water: can be reused, provided dirt and chemicals are effectively separated and bacteria are controlled.
Without proper control mechanisms, bacteria can multiply at lightning speed, leading to foaming, odour (think of the well-known smell of rotten eggs), and cloudy water. Not exactly what your customers expect from a professional washing experience.
Royal Care: getting a grip on water quality
The Royal Care line has been specially developed to address these challenges:
- Reduces foaming
- Improves water clarity
- Keeps bacteria formation under control
The result? A healthier working environment, longer equipment life and a better customer experience.
