As the UK faces increasing pressure on water resources with widespread hosepipe bans and record-low reservoir levels, ClearWater Recycling Systems is stepping up with innovative, sustainable solutions that help organisations reduce water consumption, remain compliant, and operate efficiently even in drought conditions.
Recycling for a Resilient Future
At the core of ClearWater’s offering is its closed-loop wash water recycling system, which captures, filters, and reuses more than 90% of water from equipment and vehicle wash off. This dramatically reduces the need for mains water, making it an ideal solution for golf courses, sports facilities, local authorities, and contractors during times of water scarcity.
This volume of water recycled means operations can continue even under hosepipe bans. And justify washing off the machinery under scrutiny where bans are not yet in place, as it is naturally topped up through rainwater.
Other benefits are:
- Environmentally compliant with UK regulations, preventing harmful runoff into watercourses.
- Cost-effective by reducing water bills and eliminating the need for expensive drainage infrastructure.
- Building a bunded wash pad ensures other potential contaminants can be store on the pad and everything will be contained safely.
- A typical 5,000 litre (1320 gallon) ClearWater system can save in the region of up to 500,000 litres (132086 gallon) of water annually.
Tackling Drought Head-On
With climate change intensifying the frequency and severity of droughts, ClearWater is expanding its portfolio to include attenuation ponds and on-site reservoirs. These systems collect and store rainwater and surface runoff, providing a sustainable water source for irrigation, washdown, and other operational needs.
Attenuation ponds help manage stormwater, reduce flood risk, and recharge groundwater.
Reservoirs offer long-term water security, especially in regions affected by prolonged dry spells.
A Timely Solution for Today’s Challenges
The current wave of hosepipe bans across the UK highlights the urgent need for water resilience. ClearWater’s systems not only help organisations stay operational during restrictions but also demonstrate a proactive commitment to environmental stewardship.
As water becomes an increasingly precious resource, ClearWater is proud to support clients in building sustainable, future-proof operations. Whether you’re looking to upgrade your washdown facilities or invest in long-term water storage, ClearWater has the expertise and technology to help.
