Carwash Connection: IBA Overview

In-bay automatics far outnumber conveyors and self-serves across the globe.

In-bay automatics are the dominant type of carwash in North America, Europe and Australia.

In this week’s Carwash Connection video, Associate Publisher – Editorial Rich DiPaolo delves into the reasons for why this format is so popular and what options are available for operators.

DiPaolo says, “According to this video series sponsor, operators can expect a throughput of about eight to 12 cars per hour per bay with average menu price points of about $5 to $18 per wash.” 

To learn more about the popularity of in-bay automatics, be sure to watch the video.
