Hippowash Clean Up at Hillhead 2010

Wheel washers are often seen as a necessary and costly evil, purchased to comply with mandatory highways regulations. As a result, Hippowash have invested significant time and money in ensuring the cost of ownership of their washers is the lowest available. This has been achieved by minimising power consumption and optimising clean water recovery through the effective use of their highly efficient SiltEater lamella clarification system.

Hippowash offers a range of washers that can be purchased, leased or hired, depending on operational factors. Hiring can be an effective solution in many applications and Hippowash have seen an upturn in their hire business over the past 18 months, prompted in part by the difficult economic conditions experienced by many construction and quarrying companies. The modular, integrated design of the Hippowash units facilitates short to medium term installations and the compact SiltEater water recovery system negates the need for expansive lagoons. Low power consumption also removes the need for expensive dedicated power supplies.
