About
Safe, time-saving and
cost-efficient industrial parts cleaning
Boost productivity and reduce manual handling risks with Cleanaway’s automatic Turbowash system – a water-based parts washer that delivers effective cleaning while supporting environmental and workplace safety compliance.
Our self-contained Turbowash machines are purpose-built for the demands of commercial workshops, automotive operations, manufacturing and heavy industry. The Turbowash combines high-pressure jets, biodegradable detergents and a heated wash chamber to remove oil, grease and contaminants from external surfaces safely and efficiently. It’s ideal for cleaning large tools and industrial parts such as alternators, cylinder heads, gearboxes, engine parts and other metal components that require fast turnaround and consistent results.
Turbowash machines are available for purchase or rent. We supply the unit, manage maintenance and cleaning fluid replacement, and provide ongoing waste collection and disposal in compliance with EPA guidelines.
Make the switch from labour-intensive manual processes to automatic parts washing and keep your operations running smoothly without downtime for cleaning.

Benefits for workshops
Improved cleaning and protection

Reduced costs compared to manual cleaning
Automating the cleaning process reduces labour costs, minimises downtime and boosts productivity by freeing workers up to complete other tasks.
