KENTEC TOOL HIRE WASH WITH A TRIME X-WASH

from Plant Planet August 2023

WINGET celebrates 115 years and that’s in concrete!

Following their move into larger premises, Tonbridge-based Tool Hire Company, Kentec Tool Hire has invested in a Trime X-WASH wash bay ready to clean their fleet of diggers, dumpers, and garden machinery.

Representatives of Kentec first spotted the X-WASH at Coventry’s Executive Hire Show, and then followed up their interest directly with Trime.

Commenting on this investment, Kentec’s Lee Batson said, “We had been looking for a plant cleaning system for some time, and we were very impressed with the X-WASH when we saw it at the Show. Now it has been installed our teams are really pleased with the X-WASH as they hardly have to do an extra cleaning up after using it!”

“The X-WASH looks great, it doesn’t take up too much room in the yard, and its water recycling attributes are good for the environment,” added Lee.

The X-WASH is an ecological, flexible cleaning system for most types of plant and machinery. The X-WASH will help to prevent soil pollution and contamination of drains from oil, grease and other chemical contaminants commonly associated with the regular cleaning of site equipment. The cleaning area is connected to the rear solids collection tank section, which recycles the water through a system of filters, which means that all heavy solids are safely contained and easily removed. From here the dirty water is pumped into the filtration tank where a series of filters removes smaller solid particulates, hydrocarbons, and oils. Easy access to both the solids collection tank and filtration tank ensures all contaminates are disposed of properly.
