Bus washing equipment.
Maintaining a clean bus fleet isn’t just about presenting a polished image – it’s critical for meeting contractual obligations, ensuring public safety, and reducing long-term maintenance costs.
A professional image.
A clean bus fleet reflects the professionalism of the operator.
Clean windows ensure clear driver vision, enhancing safety for both passengers and pedestrians.
Removing grime, road debris, and biological contaminants also prevents wear and corrosion, helping to maintain the mechanical health of the fleet.
In Australia, maintaining vehicle cleanliness is essential for compliance with transport authorities, and facilities must ensure ongoing workplace health and safety (WHS) under guidelines from Safe Work Australia and respective state legislation.
The bus washing process.
An effective and efficient bus washing process involves removing surface contaminants, dirt, and environmental pollutants from the exterior body, windows, undercarriage, and wheels.
Whether through manual high-pressure washing or fully automatic machines, efficient cleaning is vital for fleet reliability and safety.
A flexible solutions for small bus fleets.
For smaller fleet operators, ISTOBAL’s manually operated high-pressure bus wash systems are an excellent option.
These systems provide an economical and flexible approach to maintaining a clean fleet without requiring significant infrastructure investment.
They are ideal for sites with limited space or lower daily vehicle throughput.
Smart solutions for large bus fleets.
For larger fleets with higher daily washing requirements, automatic systems like the ISTOBAL HW’Compak and HW’Express are smart choices.
The ISTOBAL HW’Compak is a robust, compact solution optimised for the bus and heavy vehicle market with features including:
- SmartWash technology: Fully connected for automated fleet wash management and remote maintenance.
- Optimised wash times: Optional systems like side high-pressure jets, foaming pre-wash, and underchassis wash allow efficient and thorough cleaning.
- Customisable programs: Operators can configure flexible wash settings tailored to different vehicle types, optimising chemical and water usage.
- Durability: Designed to support growing fleets, the Compak provides long-term performance with minimal downtime.
We recently completed the installation of a HW’Compak at a Sydney-based bus facility, immediately boosting their operational capacity and service standards to efficiently wash 20+ buses each day.
The ISTOBAL HW’Express is a fast, powerful, high volume bus wash that offers an exceptional wash quality with features including:
- Rapid wash cycle: Washes a 12-metre bus in just two minutes, including a patented overlapping brush wash for the front and rear.
- Space-saving design: Static installation with no rails required, making it ideal for facilities with limited space.
- Drive-through efficiency: Buses simply drive through, guided by a simple stoplight system that ensures correct positioning for maximum cleaning efficiency.
- Comprehensive cleaning options: Operators can add additional vertical brushes, horizontal roof brushes, and pre-wash systems for complete vehicle coverage.
- Optional extras: Including foamy chemical spray pre-wash, motorised or static high-pressure systems, and integrated under-chassis washing.
The HW’Express is perfect for high-volume depots needing to quickly and efficiently process their entire fleet without sacrificing cleaning quality.
