Keeping your commercial vehicle in top condition means more than just regular maintenance. It’s about protecting the investment and making sure you present a professional image. Winter weather is especially harsh on your vehicle's paint and exterior, but an extra layer of protection helps in all weather conditions.

Fleet maintenance is no longer just about keeping your vehicles clean and on the road, it’s about strategically planning for upcoming changes before they happen. From changes in customer demands, tech, and customer preferences, fleet managers are in a unique position.

Experts are predicating “a warmer, wetter-than-normal” winter this year for much of the United States. But as the colder weather approaches, it’s crucial that your fleet washing operation is prepared for freezing temperatures, potential snowfall, and road salt. Especially in the northern areas of the country.

The 2024 PowerClean trade show has officially wrapped up. After the success of the 2023 event in Arizona, this year’s convention returned to Florida and didn’t disappoint. Hydro-Chem Systems was proud to be a sponsor and exhibitor at this year’s event.

Every October, the Hydro-Chem Systems team celebrates Employee Ownership Month to remind people what a powerful tool ESOPs are for employee and ownership engagement.

As winter edges closer, fleet owners in colder areas of the United States and Canada are not looking forward to the additional maintenance they need to do. Road salt is notorious for corroding the undercarriage of cars, buses and semi-trucks alike.

From farm to table, livestock farmers play an important role in keeping our nation fed. But that mission is still in jeopardy.

Trucks quite literally keep the economy moving. About 3 million tractor-trailers in the US do most of the hauling of products and goods. And the drivers are responsible for safely steering them without any issues. Because of how important the job is, all drivers complete regular safety checks.

Farms and farmers are the heartbeat of our country. Without their crops, livestock, products, labor, and equipment, society would crumble. And we're not exaggerating. Recent biosecurity cases caused large-scale shutdowns, layoffs, culls, and inflated food costs across the continent.

Keeping a fleet in top condition involves more than regular washes; it requires specialized products to tackle persistent challenges like caked-on road film and stubborn bug residue. Utilizing a soap or detergent that removes bug residue can be key because it is specifically formulated to tackle the issue with ease.
