Improve Drum Reuse with Rotajet Batch Drum Washers
As businesses continue to focus on reducing waste and improving sustainability, reusing industrial drums has become an increasingly attractive option. However, effective reuse starts with thorough cleaning. Rotajet’s range of batch drum washers is designed to remove oils, chemicals, food residues, paints and other process contaminants from steel and plastic drums, helping businesses prepare containers for reuse, inspection or recycling.

Could you please advise the specs for twin position drum wash? As it is manually loaded what would you expect the volume per hour could be.? Is the wash water recycled? Are the wash cycles determined by the contents of the drum to be washed? Can you provide a costing for the twin position drum wash.
