Specialist provider of services linked to returnable transit equipment (RTE) PPS Equipment Management Ltd has established PPS Wash, enabling the company to extend its services further to offer washing and product sterilisation of plastic pallets and nestable crates.

PPS Wash has opened its doors to demonstrate working trial washes, using its customers’ soiled products on the company’s new crate and pallet wash line. Having relocated to new 20,000sqft modern premises at Measham in the Midlands, the new PPS Wash factory can accommodate all sizes and types of vehicles with sufficient capacity to store crates and pallets inside in designated separate areas to minimise the risk of contamination.

Using a bespoke high-pressure, jet-tunnel washing system, the machine breaks down and removes ingrained animal by-products, other organic wastes and can remove paper labels and their adhesive backing. The wash line can handle products of various sizes and provide a depth of cleaning according to each customer’s needs.

PPS Wash can now offer clients flexibility with a range of services to provide for scheduled contract washing through to one-off, ad-hoc or seasonal wash requirements.
