Background

Truck Wash Technologies Inc. was established in July of 1999. The business opportunity arose after Jyrki Koro, President of Truck Wash Technologies acquired several years experience working in the vehicle wash equipment industry. The bulk of this work was related to fleet type wash systems however Jyrki Koro was also involved with several projects related to truck washing on a commercial level. This first hand industry experience provided an excellent learning environment and identified deficiencies and limitations in current truck wash systems. Combining this valuable industry experience and interest in the commercial truck-washing concept presented a new business opportunity. Truck Wash Technologies was established and the business set out to achieve three main goals.

  • To develop a new commercial truck-washing concept that would meet the needs of today's trucking industry.
  • In developing this concept insure that the new service is environmentally friendly and preserve one of our most important natural resources. Water.
  • By achieving the first two goals we would create a new and exciting business opportunity capable of establishing a global network of commercial truck wash services.

There has been no shortage of ambitious entrepreneurs who have tried to find a faster method to wash large vehicles commercially. Their efforts have been limited to using equipment on the market that was intended for fleet washing applications. These pioneers have probably experienced more failures than success. The limited success has been attributed to the entrepreneur incorporating some automation to complement their labor. First hand experiences with a few of these pioneers has only strengthened our desire to focus on the commercial truck wash application.

Truck Wash Technologies initial task was to develop equipment that focused on washing large vehicles commercially. Secondly, past experience indicated that the success of the truck wash service would require the technical group having an invested interest in the truck wash service. The company made a strategic business decision based on the fact that it has exclusivity to the equipment design and developed the concept. Thus the decision was made to make the truck wash service the primary goal for the business.

Truck Wash Technologies is carving a niche for itself by focusing on developing a truck wash concept for washing large vehicles commercially for profit. The goal has always been to produce a clean truck that compares to the wash quality of a manual wash and not just fleet clean quality. The prototype truck wash has achieved the timesaving benefits, quality cleaning and provides the cleaning options that meet the needs of the customer.

The ability to develop the complete turnkey package (equipment and concept) with a goal of creating a profitable truck wash service is paramount for success. We have had very clear goals from the outset and spent several years conducting research and developing the idea and committed to building a prototype to test all equipment and concepts. We are now in the process of building the first fully operational North American truck wash to be used as a corporate facility where system performance will be continuously monitored and evaluated. This facility will allow for ongoing research and development to insure the system evolves with technological advances. The goal is to brand the truck wash service and implement a chain of truck washes across North America and this requires resources and takes time, patience and creative business strategies. We do not consider ourselves an equipment supplier since we are focusing on using our equipment to provide the truck wash service. We have developed this business opportunity and are seeking investors to join us rather than selling equipment to an individual to develop the opportunity on their own.

Producing a clean vehicle is the first priority however the truck wash service is a business and the business must be profitable. Profitability starts with good planning and optimizing designs to minimize capital and operating costs without compromising system performance. Environmental regulations are continuously changing and although sewer discharge requirements must be met the handling of the massive quantities of dirt removed from the vehicles must also be dealt with. Truck Wash Technologies commitment to the truck wash service will insure that a clean truck and customer satisfaction remains priority, profitability is maximized and environmental compliance is always maintained.
