Steven’s Bulk Services Improves Wharf Efficiency with SPITWATER SW15-200PE

Steven’s Bulk Services supply state-of-the-art ship unloading equipment, strategically positioned around Australia to support the 24/7 shipping industry.  

The Challenge

With equipment operating around the clock, reliability and availability at short notice are essential.  Grain hoppers and other bulk handling equipment must be cleaned thoroughly, both for presentation and to prevent cross-contamination between loads.

Traditional cleaning methods were too slow and inefficient, tying up equipment when it needed to be back in service fast. 

A SPITWATER Solutions Specialist reviewed the cleaning requirements across Steven’s Bulk Services’ wharfs. The assessment highlighted three main needs: 

• A hot water system to cut through grain residues quickly,
• A mobile solution to reach equipment across the wharf at short notice,
• Equipment capable of cleaning at height, with hoppers positioned more than 10 metres above ground.

The Results

The SW15200PE provided immediate improvements for the team at Steven's Bulk Services: 

• Faster cleaning times, cutting labour costs and freeing equipment for the next load 
• Hot water performance reduced cleaning effort and improved results
• Mobile operation allowed teams to respond quickly to cleaning needs across the wharf 
• On-time turnaround, supporting the fast-paced demands of 24/7 shipping 

Saving Time and Money on the Wharfs  

With SPITWATER in place, Steven’s Bulk Services cut turnaround times, improved hygiene and reduced costs. In an industry where time is money, the SW15-200PE delivered the tough, reliable cleaning power needed to keep operations moving.
