Dust from demolition, construction, recycling, quarrying and material handling can spread quickly beyond the point where it is generated. Choosing suitable dust suppression methods helps reduce airborne dust, improve conditions around working areas and support compliance with occupational health requirements.
With a stand covering around 120 m², FRUTIGER Company AG presented itself as the market leader in wheel washing systems and a manufacturer of comprehensive emission control solutions. With the MobyDick ONE 720, the company showcased the largest wheel washing system at Steinexpo and the leading solution in terms of washing performance and functionality. At the same time, FRUTIGER demonstrated its expertise in keeping roads, vehicles and air clean. Numerous industry professionals and long-standing customers took the opportunity to discuss specific projects with the FRUTIGER team.
FRUTIGER Company AG is pleased to once again participate as an exhibitor at Steinexpo 2026. At the international demonstration trade fair for the raw materials and construction industries, the Swiss company will present its proven solutions for wheel washing and dust control at booth A20 – with the aim of making construction sites and quarries cleaner, safer, and more sustainable.
The Port of Bar (Luka Bar) is the logistical heart of Montenegro and a central hub for Balkan transit. In an environment where thousands of tons of bulk cargo, ore, and construction materials are handled daily, the contamination of vehicles and infrastructure presents a massive challenge.
To ensure public road safety and protect their own fleet, the port operator invested heavily in modern cleaning technology from FRUTIGER last year. Since their successful commissioning, two MobyDick Wheel Washing systems and a specialized Demucking system have been in heavy-duty operation.
When IFAT opens its doors in Munich from May 4 to 7, 2026, FRUTIGER Company AG will be appearing for the 12th consecutive time as a leading provider in the field of Site Emission Control. Under the motto “A whale, a promise!”, the Swiss company will present its comprehensive solutions for clean construction site exits, efficient vehicle cleaning, and effective dust suppression in Hall B4, Booth 528.
Winterthur, Switzerland – Dust emissions are one of the greatest challenges in modern emission control. Whether in international mining, large construction sites, or industrial areas, efficient dust suppression solutions are now essential. FRUTIGER Company AG is setting new global standards with its MobyDick brand and the technologically leading “Multi” series. A recent major order for five dust suppression machines for a copper mining project in Chile confirms the superiority of this Swiss engineering.
What is Dust Control? An Explanation for Users
For operators in the mining industry, demolition, or material sorting, dust control is essential for three reasons:
1. Occupational safety & health: Exposure to fine dust at the workplace is significantly reduced through state-of-the-art dust suppression technology.
2. Wear protection: Less dust means reduced maintenance for engines and filters of construction machinery.
3. Environmental regulations: Compliance with strict limits prevents costly shutdowns.
Choosing the right wheel wash system is critical for construction sites that need to prevent mud and debris from being carried onto public roads. Contractors often compare MobyDick wheel wash systems with standard drive-through wheel wash systems when selecting equipment for UK construction sites.
Wheel wash hire is a practical solution for UK construction sites that need to prevent mud and debris from being carried onto public roads. A temporary wheel wash cleans vehicle wheels before exit, helping contractors comply with UK construction site regulations without investing in permanent equipment.
A wheel wash machine is used on construction sites to remove mud, clay, and debris from vehicle wheels before they exit onto public roads. On sites with heavy lorry traffic, a truck wheel wash system or wheel wash station is essential to maintain road safety, comply with UK construction site regulations, and prevent costly clean-up operations.
UK construction site regulations require contractors to prevent environmental pollution, maintain road safety, and minimise disruption to the public. One of the most common compliance challenges on construction sites is controlling mud and debris carried onto public roads by site vehicles.
