MobyDick Wheel Wash at Tarmac
August 18, 2026Tarmac is one of the UK’s leading suppliers of sustainable construction materials and services, supporting infrastructure and construction projects nationwide.
The long-standing partnership between Tarmac and Frutiger has already resulted in almost 50 MobyDick wheel wash systems being installed at Tarmac sites across the UK. This proven experience was a key reason why Tarmac once again chose a MobyDick wheelwashing solution for its Sunnymead Quarry in Wivenhoe.
The new installation features a 6-metre inset wheel wash system designed for tippers, low loaders and articulated trucks. A 50,000-litre recycling tank, combined with a concrete Wedge Pit, allows almost all wash water to be recovered and reused – reducing fresh water consumption and supporting efficient, sustainable operation.
With its high vehicle traffic and strategic location, Sunnymead Quarry is an excellent reference site for MobyDick wheel wash technology and demonstrates how Frutiger delivers reliable, site-specific wheelwashing systems for demanding quarrying and construction applications.
