New Tandem™ RiteTouch Wash System on Display at NACS Show
(October 22, 2007) De Pere, WI – Vehicle wash equipment leader, PDQ Manufacturing, Inc.,
(booth #2825) will display their newest hybrid vehicle wash system, the Tandem™ RiteTouch
at the National Association of Convenience Stores Show in Altanta Georgia, November 7-9,
2007.
The patent-pending Tandem’s™ two-bridge design allows both touch-free and friction cleaning
processes to take place simultaneously speeding up the wash time. Tandem™ is also capable
of washing oversized SUV’s and dually trucks. Unlike other friction type systems, the Tandem’s
large top foam brush and side brush configuration and Virtual Treadle® create an entirely open
wash bay—the trademark of all PDQ in-bay systems.
In addition, PDQ will showcase the LaserWash® M5 touch-free wash system and the latest in
Access® Customer Management Systems, the S-Series and the B-Series. Both Access® models
offer the powerful marketing and reporting features, customizable screens, customer friendly
operation. All seamlessly integrate with PDQ’s Wash Access Loyalty System (WALS) and Site
Management Systems (SMS). The Access® system saves on labor costs and offers flexibility
such as; real-time remote monitoring, revenue reporting, maintenance log and customizable
wash package options.
“Our main objective is to provide convenience store operators with complete system solutions,
so they can maximize their return on investment. Plus, all of our equipment is supported by
our dedicated nationwide distributor network and PDQ technical support is available 24-7,
seven days a week,” stated Mike Savignac, PDQ’s Executive V.P. of Sales and Marketing.
