CONTAINER CLEANING
SYSTEM SOLUTIONS – BASED ON MODULAR COMPONENTS Kärcher system solutions are designed for container cleaning using modular components. Both custom designs and on-site issues are taken into consideration. One of the main tasks of engineering is choosing efficient components to ensure that energy and operating costs are kept to a minimum. One big advantage is that the components used are developed specifically for cleaning container interi ors. Our many years of experience in container interior cleaning influence the product definition. Industrial quality standards are a given. A wide range of modular components ensures an optimal solution for almost any application.
