What does a football pitch have in common with a building site? At first glance, the answer may seem surprising, but both benefit from MobyDick dust control technology.

Last week, the installation team from Frutiger CZ s.r.o. completed the successful installation of the MobyDick ConLine KIT Flex 400 MC mobile wheel washing system at an extensive construction site in Košice, Slovakia. This advanced system, which was specially designed to meet the requirements of the construction industry, will be in operation there for almost two years on a rental basis. Its modular design includes a robust washing system measuring four metres in length, practical entry and exit ramps and an efficient recycling tank. Equipped with a scraper conveyor and a flocculant dosing pump, this system enables accelerated sludge separation and is capable of cleaning up to 100 moderately soiled trucksper day. The system can be commissioned immediately after completion of the access roads by the customer, with the entire installation completed within a single working day.

With the recent commissioning of a MobyDick KIT Plus 800B-50P wheel washing system at a new landfill site near the headquarters of FRUTIGER Company AG, the operator, a leading building materials producer in the region, has made a clear statement against the contamination of public spaces by emissions from the storage site. Designed to handle medium to heavy contamination, the system can efficiently clean up to 200 trucks daily. This proactive measure ensures that the streets around the landfill are free from contamination right from the start. This not only significantly improves coexistence with traffic participants and residents but also exemplifies how targeted actions and the use of advanced cleaning technologies can significantly reduce burdens on public spaces.
