Shinewash Delivers Custom S1 Rollover Car Wash to UK Client
Shinewash has successfully completed the installation of a customized S1 rollover car wash system for a UK-based client, introducing an upgraded design that significantly expands vehicle compatibility while maintaining high-efficiency automated cleaning performance. The solution is engineered to handle vehicles up to 2.6 meters in width and 2.8 meters in height, making it suitable for a broader mix of SUVs, vans, and standard passenger cars.
This customized configuration extends beyond the standard S1 model, which is originally designed for vehicles up to W2.1m × H2.1m. The upgraded system allows operators to serve multiple vehicle categories within a single machine, improving operational flexibility and maximizing return on investment for commercial car wash businesses.
Advanced Engineering for Multi-Vehicle Flexibility
The core improvement of this customized S1 system lies in its enhanced structural design. The reinforced frame enables stable and safe operation across a wider vehicle range, allowing operators to clean compact cars, luxury SUVs, and light commercial vehicles without switching equipment or compromising wash quality.
Despite the expanded dimensions, the system continues to rely on Shinewash’s proven 5-brush precision cleaning architecture. The configuration—featuring one top brush, two vertical brushes, and two side brushes—ensures full 360° contact coverage. Built with EVA soft-brush material, the system delivers a scratch-free wash suitable for high-end vehicle surfaces.
High Efficiency with Low Resource Consumption
Even with its increased capacity, the upgraded S1 model maintains strong efficiency performance. Each wash cycle is controlled by a PLC automation system, completing a full cleaning process in approximately 2.5 to 5 minutes per vehicle. This enables operators to maintain high throughput during peak hours.
Water usage remains optimized at 60–80 liters per wash cycle, supporting both cost efficiency and environmental responsibility. The system is also designed with integrated water recycling capability, helping operators comply with strict environmental regulations in the UK market.
Compact Design and Industrial Reliability
Although the machine supports larger vehicles, it retains a compact installation footprint of L11 × W3.7 × H3.1 meters. This makes it suitable for urban and space-limited commercial sites where installation efficiency is critical.
Built with hot-galvanized steel, the structure ensures long-term durability and corrosion resistance, with a service life exceeding 15 years under regular commercial use. Combined with advanced PLC controls and German P+F sensor integration, the system delivers stable performance and reduced maintenance requirements.
Business Value for Operators
This customized S1 rollout provides significant commercial advantages for car wash operators. By supporting mixed vehicle fleets within a single system, businesses can increase customer reach and improve revenue potential without investing in multiple machines. The flexibility to handle both compact vehicles and larger SUVs creates a more scalable and future-ready operation model.
