PDQ to Exhibit LaserWash® 360 Plus Technology at Upcoming UNITI Expo in Stuttgart, Germany

By OPW | May 04, 2022

De Pere, WI – May 4, 2022 – PDQ, a product brand of OPW Vehicle Wash Solutions, is pleased to announce that it will be exhibiting in Hall 3, Booth D70 at the upcoming UNITI Expo, which will be held from May 17-19 at the Messe Stuttgart Exhibition Center in Stuttgart, Germany.

“We are extremely excited to be able to get back to attending in-person events in Europe,” said Rob Lewis, International Sales Manager. “We look forward to showing our customers and channel partners in Europe how vehicle wash solutions from PDQ can help optimize the performance of their wash operations.”

Specifically, PDQ will be featuring the following vehicle-wash system at its booth during the UNITI Expo:

  • LaserWash® 360 Plus In-Bay Automatic Car Wash: This wash system establishes a new performance standard through its Smart 360 Technology, which enables the wash to “think for itself” and be responsive to the dynamic conditions in the wash bay. The Smart 360 Cleaning System provides better wash coverage through the use of rounded arch corners, optimized chemical-application timing and tilting arch functions. The Smart 360 Arch Control System provides a relaxing entry into the wash bay with quicker throughput rates by moving around the complete vehicle perimeter for more thorough coverage. PDQ’s LaserJuice line of wash detergents can be used with the system. The LaserJuice chemicals are non-synthetic, naturally derived and biodegradable, which makes them safer for vehicles, operators and the environment. The integrated Smart 360 Drying System offers the unique FlashDry service that streamlines the amount of time needed to perform basic drying functions. All the Smart 360 features can be managed and monitored through the system’s Smart 360 networking capabilities. This consists of an easy-to-use browser interface that allows wash operators to access all key operating functions and reports from anywhere in the world. It also enables the operator to change wash packages, view performance and trend reports, and monitor all machine functions via a few clicks of a mouse and no need for special software.

The LaserWash 360 Plus can be fully integrated with entry systems, controllers and management software from PSD Codax. PSD Codax, which is the United Kingdom subsidiary for OPW VWS product brand Innovative Control Systems®, has been a leader in the development of vehicle wash technologies since 1991. Starting with a simple keypad for code entry, PSD Codax has grown into an innovator that today offers cutting-edge vehicle wash technologies that help support and grow the wash operator’s business while helping make the wash experience as seamless and pleasurable as possible for the driver.

The UNITI Expo is the leading trade fair for the vehicle wash market in Europe. Held biennially, the UNITI Expo is designed to provide attendees an opportunity to build and strengthen relationships with vehicle wash equipment distributors and service providers from around the world.
