Following the success of our EXPO Trips in the first 12 months, we are launching the new season this initiative for 2023-2024!

On October 4-6 ISTOBAL USA will showcase at the NACS Show, Atlanta, GA (Booth #B5141), the ISTOBAL M'WASH PRO, its latest high-end rollover. The M’WASH PRO unifies the latest technology and the aesthetics of the group’s European models with the versatility of the FLEX5 line of equipment.

This model, developed specially for the US market, responds to a demand from US customers for versatility, higher efficiency, and increased profitability. The new design optimizes wash control and quality, with its various configurations, extra options, and more efficient and connected technology.

ISTOBAL, the leading Spanish group in car wash and car care solutions, has drawn up a decalogue with ten basic tips for washing and caring for your car correctly during the summer months, in order to avoid damage to the bodywork and more delicate areas caused by extreme heat or external elements.

The company has reminded that during the summer season, which begins this week, the vehicle must be protected especially from the sun and mosquitoes, as well as from the saltpetre of the sea and the sand of the beach, which can cause considerable deterioration. 

ISTOBAL has premiered its new M'WASH2 rollover at Tankstelle & Mittlestand, Germany's leading trade fair for the car dealership, service station and car wash industry, held at Messe Essen from 14 to 15 June (stand 6E02A).

The company has exhibited for the first time at a show and in the international market this innovative equipment aimed at increasing profitability in carwashes and improving the user experience through more efficient and connected technology.

ISTOBAL launches Ozone Jet Wash, an ozone-in-water system that reduces operating costs in pressure jet wash through equipment that is more environmentally friendly, efficient and cost-effective than hot water boilers, achieving optimum wash quality.

With this new development, ISTOBAL provides an alternative to hot water boilers in jet wash, which generate high operating and maintenance costs and considerable CO2 emissions. 

ISTOBAL introduces this innovative tool to the car wash and care industry through the group’s website. Easy and quick to operate, the program’s main use is to facilitate the configuration of ISTOBAL rollovers.

With this alliance, the company strengthens its presence in Northern Europe and will boost its exports in the Finnish market through Wennstrom, ISTOBAL's sole distributor in this country with extensive experience in the sector.
