In industrial and construction settings where handling bulk materials, demolishing buildings, or grinding materials is commonplace, dust quickly becomes an inevitable byproduct. However, the release of dust particles into the air is not just a nuisance—it poses significant health and environmental risks. An effective method to control this dust is through suppression using water droplets. This technique is not only efficient but also environmentally friendly. In this article, we discuss the importance of dust control with water droplets and why it is critical for both industrial safety and public health.

FRUTIGER INDIA Private Limited, a leading provider of innovative environmental solutions, is proud to announce the successful installation and commissioning of their state-of-the-art Automatic Wheel Washing System at Nippon AMNS Sagasahi Mines in Koira, Barbil, Orissa.

Already for the 17th time the Swiss company FRUTIGER Company AG, with the well-known promise “a whale, a promise!”, was present at the bauma in hall B5/booth 224 and once again clearly underlined its worldwide leading role in the fields of wheel washing systems, dust control and demucking.

After years of rather quiet trade fairs due to Corona, the world’s largest trade fair, bauma, the heartbeat of the construction industry, will open its doors for the 33rd time in October 2022. The leading manufacturer of wheel washing systems, coarse dirt washing systems and dust control systems will be there.

For the 10th time in a row, FRUTIGER Company AG is one of the exhibitors at IFAT 2022 in Munich. Under the motto “A whale, a promise!” the Swiss company will present itself at booth 528 in hall B4.

In 1995, FRUTIGER launched the first wheel washing system under the brand name MobyDick, which made it possible to clean the wheels of construction vehicles without stopping. This innovation revolutionised wheel washing and is now used worldwide. In addition to wheel washing systems, the Swiss company has also made a name for itself in the field of dust control in recent years. With the development of the latest model series New Generation (NG), FRUTIGER once again sets new standards.

FRUTIGER, headquartered in Switzerland, is a world leader in the design and manufacture of coarse dirt washing systems for large vehicles. The washing systems, known in the trade as demucking systems, are capable of cleaning even heavy soiling on vehicles of all kinds within minutes. With the commissioning of the world’s first system about 15 years ago, FRUTIGER laid the foundation for this new business field. The installation of a MobyDick demucking system in the world’s largest iron ore mine is a further milestone in the automatic cleaning of heavily soiled vehicles.

The importance of cleaning dirty truck wheels often doesn’t become obvious until damage needs to be repaired. Wear and tear on the wheels or the entire vehicle can be avoided or reduced if you clean it regularly. A truck is a commercial vehicle and is built to transport heavy goods over long distances.
