Contamination on construction vehicles, which occurs on landfills, mines or construction sites, often settles as film on the surfaces and in large quantities in the chassis of the vehicles. There they accumulate more and more with the time. If the substance is retained for a longer period of time, it is attacked and corroded.
In 1995, FRUTIGER launched MobyDick Quick, the world’s first wheel wash system that meant that vehicles no longer had to stop for the wheels to be cleaned.
