Car wash constructions

No. Every model can be built over both a container and a modular car wash – in the carousel at the top of the page you can switch between both versions for each construction.

The difference between a container and a module concerns the plant room, not the canopy: in the container version all the technology fits in a lockable container, while in the modular version it is housed in a compact module serving up to three bays.

A load-bearing steel structure hot-dip galvanised to EN ISO 1461, a flat trapezoidal sheet metal roof, six light points per bay and bay partitions made of PVC banners with washing instructions.

The options are shared too: clear polycarbonate partitions, an open bay for vehicles up to 4 m, a blanking banner for a non-drive-through bay and a curved polycarbonate roof.

The load-bearing structure, roof and bay lighting are the same in every model – the choice comes down to the fascia, the lighting and the column covers.

The models differ in the height and material of the fascia (flat Dibond, aluminium, louvres or openwork), how the logo is displayed (vinyl film, 3D elements, embossing or cut-out lettering), the type of lighting (none, LED strip, contour lighting or colour-controlled RGB LEDs) and the form of the column covers (none, square, tall with an LED front or openwork). You will find the full lists of standard and optional equipment in each model's section above.

Yes. In every model we prepare the logo and lettering on the fascia to match the investor's branding – in Basic as vinyl film, in the others as 3D or illuminated elements.

In Lumi, and optionally in Nexo, the RGB lighting colour can be controlled, so the construction can light up in your brand colours.

A standard bay allows vehicles up to 3.5 m high to be washed. In every model the bay can be made open (boom cut-out) – the limit then rises to 4 m.

Mention this need in your enquiry from the configurator, and the advisor will include it in the quote.

Yes. Replacing or refreshing the canopy is one of the modernisation services we carry out at operating sites – this is how the first Lumi project was created, at a car wash on Modra Street in Szczecin.

The price depends on the model, the number of bays and the options chosen, so we provide it in an individual quote. In the car wash configurator, choose the construction, number of bays and equipment, and a BKF advisor will send you a free quote.

In our projects: the list of BKF car washes, filterable by construction, shows sites with Lumi, Nexo, Trixo, Premium and Basic, with photos and locations. Selected projects for each model are also linked in its section on this page.
