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 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.

On May 8-10 ISTOBAL USA is planning to reveal at The Car Wash Show, Las Vegas, NV (Booth #1155), some exciting news. The company will showcase multiple new products and options specially developed for the US market.  The new solutions respond to a demand from US customers for innovation, efficiency, and profitability.

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.

The company is a pioneer in the development of integrated technologies that reduce water, chemicals and energy consumption, fostering a sustainable car wash industry.

On October 2-4 at the NACS Show, Las Vegas (Booth #6769), ISTOBAL USA will showcase the ISTOBAL FLEX5, its most versatile and popular rollover in the US fueling and convenience store sectors.

The ISTOBAL FLEX5 is the first and only transformable rollover. It offers flexible configuration for program customization, speed control, and product dosing, among other features. It can be configured as a 3- or 5-brush unit, a touch-free, a hybrid, or as a combo unit. In this way, it allows customers to choose the wash they want: friction with 3 or 5 brushes, contactless, or a combination of both.

The ISTOBAL FLEX5 has established itself in the US market thanks to its efficiency and versatility. With the ability to adapt to the present and future needs of the local market, it can transform from 3 to 5 brushes without the need to purchase an entirely new machine. An easy solution to a site’s need for a faster washing process, the 5-brush unit can reduce washing and drying time by up to 30% compared to the 3-brush configuration.

ISTOBAL FLEX5 grows in the CSTORE sector

ISTOBAL USA has registered increased sales of its most popular in-bay automatic by 22% in convenience stores in Q1 – Q3 compared to the same period last year. In addition, the company is finalizing a major 12-unit reload project for a leading US convenience store chain.
