Why a tyre wash system is a must these days

Where vehicles carry mud, soil or dust from unpaved surfaces onto public roads, problems quickly arise: dirty roads, increasing cleaning costs, complaints from local residents and not least regulatory requirements or fines. On construction and industrial sites or in gravel works, a clean exit is not an optional extra – but an operational necessity.

The solution: Automatic tyre washing directly at the exit

Our tyre wash systems automatically clean the tyres, chassis and underbody as the vehicle passes through. The dirt remains where it is created — on your company premises. The result: clean roads, lower costs and smooth operations.

A future-proof solution for modern building site logistics

Clean exits are no longer a luxury these days, but an essential part of responsible and economical fleet management. With MARS and STARS, NUFA (commercial vehicle wash system segment) delivers proven solutions that efficiently combine environmental compliance, economic efficiency, and operational reliability.

With its new MARS and STARS tyre wash systems, Christ SUPER WASH offers high-performance solutions for effectively preventing road dirt caused by construction and industrial vehicles.

The systems automatically clean the tyres, chassis and underbody as the vehicle passes through, ensuring that mud, soil and dirt remain where they are created – on the company premises.

Whether on temporary construction sites or for permanent heavy vehicle traffic: Dirty roads not only lead to high cleaning costs but also increase accident risks, cause complaints from local residents and may result in regulatory requirements. This is exactly where the MARS and STARS systems can help.

Two systems for different types of use

MARS – Mobile automatic tyre wash system

The mobile MARS tyre wash system has been specifically designed for flexible use on changing construction sites. This container-based solution can be transported quickly, installed with minimal effort and put into operation immediately.

Thanks to its robust design, the system is ideally suited for structural and civil engineering projects, temporary industrial operations or changing project sites.

STARS – Stationary automatic tyre wash system

STARS provides a stationary solution for long-term installations with high vehicle volumes.
The robust steel frame system is designed for extreme loads and ensures reliable cleaning even under demanding conditions.

The stationary version is particularly suitable for gravel works, quarries, recycling facilities, landfills, port facilities as well as for industrial production sites.

Sustainable cleaning with a closed water circulation

Both systems operate with a closed water circulation, enabling the reuse of wash water. This reduces both water consumption and operating costs.

The systems are equipped with a range of features, including:

• Four sidewalls with double-piped spray devices
• Water-bearing crossing grids
• Wash systems usable from both sides
• High performance submersible pumps with up to 2,000 l/min
• Integrated sedimentation and pump chambers
• Automatic activation via sensors and operation terminal

The systems are designed for vehicles with a total weight of up to 60 tonnes or an axle load of up to 15 tonnes.

Benefits for operators and municipalities

Both companies and public contractors benefit from the MARS and STARS tyre wash systems:

• Reduce road contamination and dust load
• Minimise cleaning and follow-up costs
• Support in complying with environmental regulations
• Reduce accident risks thanks to clean roads
• Reduce complaints from local residents
• Robust, low-maintenance design for constant operation

Wide range of possible uses

Tyre wash systems are used wherever vehicles carry dirt from unpaved surfaces onto public roads.

Typical areas of use for professional tyre wash systems: 

Construction sites (structural and civil engineering)
Clean exits despite mud and soil – even with high vehicle frequency 

Gravel works, quarries and mines
Prevents dirt from being carried onto public roads – even in the case of extremely dirty conditions

Concrete mixing systems
Cement residues and dirt are removed directly – ensuring clean transport routes

Landfills and recycling facilities
Reduces dust and dirt emissions – for controlled site operations 

Port and logistics facilities
Reliable cleaning at high throughput – even under demanding conditions

Industrial and production sites
Clean transitions between factory premise and public road – without additional effort
