When production can’t slow down, site compliance can’t be compromised. During a particularly busy period, UIS Tooling & Technologies needed to maintain rolling road output while ensuring strict environmental controls around jetwashing. They turned to Cross Plant Hire for a solution that would protect both productivity and the environment.
UIS Tooling & Technologies manufactures adaptive rolling road ground protection systems. Their products are designed to enable the safe and controlled movement of people and plant across uneven, sensitive or constantly changing terrain.
With high production volumes, maintaining operational efficiency is critical to their success.
Jetwashing, while essential, can create significant environmental risks if not properly managed. Wastewater can contain oil, grease, detergents, silt and sludge - all of which pose a serious pollution threat if allowed to enter surface water or drainage systems.
In addition:
Cleaning chemicals can be harmful to aquatic life if discharged incorrectly.
Contaminated runoff can breach environmental regulations.
Production pressures left little room for disruption or downtime.
UIS needed a compliant, efficient solution that would control contaminated runoff without interrupting operations.
Cross Plant Hire supplied a 12ft x 6ft washdown bay with an integrated interceptor system.
Interceptor wash bays use gravity separation to remove oil, grease and silt from wastewater. By capturing contaminants before discharge, the system prevents pollutants from entering watercourses and ensures regulatory compliance. Cleaned water can then safely enter the sewer system in line with environmental standards.
The enclosed design also provided a dedicated, contained space for cleaning tools, plant and machinery - keeping the wider site clean and organised.
Our enclosed washdown bay includes:
A 12ft x 6ft contained washing area
Built-in interceptor to capture oil, fuel and grease residues
Effective separation of contaminated runoff
Protection of ground and drainage systems
Support for environmental compliance
The system is designed to handle high volumes while remaining easy to maintain and operate - ideal for busy production environments.
By hiring a Cross Plant Hire washdown bay, UIS Tooling & Technologies were able to:
Maintain uninterrupted rolling road production
Stay compliant with environmental regulations
Prevent contaminated runoff from impacting the surrounding area
Improve overall site cleanliness and organisation
Alongside a reliable product, UIS gained a responsive local partner delivering professional service, quick turnaround times and dependable support.
