PHT offers a wide range of container washing solutions. Depending on the number, size, and type of containers, different washing systems can be implemented to meet your operational requirements.

What are container washing systems?

Container washing systems are designed to clean a wide variety of containers, ranging from E2 crates to loading trolleys. To ensure uninterrupted production processes, containers must be cleaned quickly and hygienically so they are ready for immediate reuse. Different types of washing systems are available, including front-loading washers and continuous conveyor washing systems. The PHT CM continuous container washer has been engineered for maximum efficiency and stands out with features such as an inclined crate guide and a two-stage door opening system. In daily production, this design offers a significant advantage, as containers of varying heights can be washed together without prior sorting. During the washing process, containers pass continuously through the machine, where they are thoroughly cleaned by strategically positioned spray nozzles. An integrated drying system can also be incorporated to ensure containers are ready for immediate use. For commercial kitchens and artisan food producers, the PHT HPW front-loading washer series is the ideal solution. Depending on the selected model, it can be used to clean containers, tableware, and a wide range of kitchen utensils. PHT also offers customized washing solutions for loading trolleys and other transport equipment. In addition, PHT dewatering technology provides the ideal complement to washing systems by ensuring efficient water removal and supporting optimized production processes.

Where can container washing systems be integrated?

PHT washing systems can be integrated wherever containers or transport equipment are used. Businesses with a high container turnover—such as butcheries, meat processing plants, bakeries, dairies, and other manufacturing companies—can clean their containers efficiently while ensuring the highest hygiene standards. To achieve optimal results, cleaning processes should be planned effectively from the outset. PHT supports companies with expert consultation and works together with them to develop efficient hygiene concepts tailored to their specific requirements.

What is important in container washing?

As containers often come into direct contact with food products, reliable and hygienic cleaning is essential. It is important that the container washing system is designed to match the operational throughput while incorporating innovative cleaning technologies. Features such as a hygienic machine design, an inclined container guide to prevent water accumulation, and an effective hygienic drying process are crucial for achieving optimal cleaning results. The CM continuous container washing system can be individually configured to meet the specific needs of each operation. Thanks to its sophisticated cleaning process, containers—including crates and special-purpose containers—are cleaned thoroughly from every angle. Its modern design also eliminates the need for components such as hygiene-critical separation curtains.
