In 2019, Ruta Transport opened a truck wash facility at its transport centre. It is primarily used by the domestic fleet, but external vehicles can also be washed there.
Specialised internal cleaning:
- silos
- tanks
The exterior wash offer:
- tractor units with all types of semi-trailers (including silos, tankers, curtain trailers, refrigerated trucks, tippers)
- rubbish trucks
- buses
- gully emptiers
- delivery vehicles and others
We care for the environment!
The carwash has a Lugan 3000-type wastewater pretreatment plant with a capacity of 3 000 litres per hour. It operates on the basis of a combination of technologies: chemical de-oiling (flocculation) and separation of crushed solids using the difference in wettability of the components (flotation). An average of 1 to 1,5 m3 of water is used in a single washing process, which then goes into a 30 000-litre averaging tank and sub-treatment plant. This ensures that the water entering the sewer system is free of environmentally hazardous substances.
In the first quarter of 2023, our company joined Operation Clean Sweep, a programme aimed at preventing plastic pellets from entering the environment. Through appropriate procedures, training and regular inspections, we strive to minimise the risk of pellet loss. We also encourage our employees and business partners to work together to protect the environment.
