The ISTOBAL HW’PROGRESS modernises a Western Sydney heavy vehicle wash bay

heavy vehicle washes

The installation of a new ISTOBAL HW’PROGRESS enhances wash performance for a Western Sydney fleet.

The operator manages a broad range of vehicles—including rigid trucks, articulated units, trailers and earthmoving machinery—each with different wash challenges. They required a system capable of adapting to varied sizes, shapes and levels of dirt accumulation.

The ISTOBAL HW’PROGRESS was selected for its proven versatility and robust engineering. Developed with the latest technological advancements, it is regarded as one of the most adaptable commercial vehicle rollovers available, suitable for trucks, buses, tankers, construction vehicles and more.

Features of the HW’PROGRESS

High-pressure underbody wash

Located at the wash bay entry, this system delivers powerful jets that blast away mud and road grime from difficult underside areas. It activates automatically through photocells and operates at 70 bar, providing thorough, high-volume cleaning.

Manual high-pressure pre-wash

A dedicated pre-wash lance allows operators to focus on heavily soiled areas, especially useful for earth-moving equipment. Operating at up to 160 bar, the gun supports multiple chemical application options for targeted cleaning.

Advanced rollover technology

The HW’PROGRESS features advanced rollover technology designed for maximum cleaning efficiency. It includes self-driven vertical brushes with overlapping action for improved front and rear coverage, a high-density polyethylene horizontal brush with adjustable pressure and up to 15 configurable wash programs managed through an intuitive touchscreen control panel. Optional high-pressure modules—lower side, side and top—further enhance its ability to clean complex vehicle shapes. Together, these capabilities allow the system to wash vehicles with irregular profiles, tanks or accessories quickly and effectively, with minimal manual intervention.

Transformational results for the operator

Since commissioning, the operators have observed clear improvements across their operation, including:

  • Faster wash processes and more predictable cycle times
  • Less manual washing required, freeing up labour
  • Enhanced cleaning results, even on machinery exposed to harsh conditions
  • Greater control over water and chemical consumption
  • A safer, more efficient wash environment for staff

With the system performing exceptionally well, the fleet is now assessing the feasibility of turning the bay into a commercial heavy-vehicle wash available to outside customers—a promising new business opportunity.
