The Self Service

ROYAL BUILDING SYSTEM TECHNOLOGIES
Quality materials are critical to a building that is expected to stand the harsh conditions of a car wash. This is one area where you do not want to cut corners.

When it comes to building materials, the primary concern is that they are both sturdy and aesthetically appealing. Operators have a variety of options; all with their pros and cons. A good practice is to travel around your area and look at other car wash sites to get an idea of the materials that perform well in your climate.



Materials
Both brick and block are durable materials for the carwash building. Just as durable is a polymer wall system designed specifically for the car wash industry. This is a system of walls that is snapped together and then filled with concrete. Polymer products come in panel systems as well, which can be used to cover the walls of block construction.

An important consideration in material selection is clean ability. Car washes are subject to high volumes of dirt and sometimes graffiti.
