Clean Roads from the Factory Gate: Christ Presents MARS and STARS Wheel Wash Systems
The new MARS and STARS automatic wheel wash systems from Christ Wash Systems prevent the contamination of public roads by construction and industrial vehicles right at the exit.
The new MARS and STARS automatic wheel wash systems from Christ Wash Systems prevent the contamination of public roads by construction and industrial vehicles right at the exit. These modern systems clean tires, chassis, and underbodies fully automatically during drive-through. Thanks to a closed water loop, the technology is exceptionally resource-efficient, sustainable, and effectively reduces operating costs for companies.
The Problem: High Costs and Legal Risks from Road Dirt
Trucks and heavy-duty vehicles transport mud, soil, and dust from unpaved areas onto public traffic routes every day. The consequences for operators are severe:
- Rising cleaning costs for surrounding roadways.
- Increased accident risks due to slippery road surfaces.
- Fines and penalties from the responsible authorities.
- Resident complaints due to massive dust and dirt development.
A professional wheel wash system at the company exit is therefore not a luxury, but an economic and legal necessity.
MARS and STARS: The Right Systems for Every Project
Christ Wash Systems offers the precisely dimensioned solution for every area of application – designed for vehicles up to 60 tons total weight and 15 tons axle load:
MARS – Mobile Automatic Wheel Wash System
- Area of application: Flexible use on changing construction sites, civil engineering, and temporary industrial projects.
- Advantage: The container-based solution can be transported quickly, installed easily, and is immediately ready for operation.
STARS – Stationary Automatic Wheel Wash System
- Area of application: Long-term installations with very high vehicle volumes.
- Advantage: A solid steel frame system ensures extreme resilience in gravel plants, quarries, landfills, and industrial facilities.
Technical Highlights for Maximum Efficiency
Both cleaning systems rely on an innovative and low-maintenance design for continuous operation:
- Closed water loop: The wash water is continuously recycled, which drastically reduces water consumption.
- Enormous pumping power: High-performance submersible pumps deliver up to 2,000 liters of water per minute.
- All-round cleaning: Four side walls with double-piped spray devices and water-guided drive-over grates clean all critical vehicle areas.
- Smart control: Activation takes place fully automatically via integrated sensors.
Wide Range of Applications in Industry
The systems secure clean transitions between company premises and public roads in the following industries:
- Construction sites (building & civil engineering)
- Gravel plants, quarries and mines
- Concrete mixing plants (removal of cement residues)
- Landfills & recycling centers
- Port and logistics facilities with high throughput
