How we work
During our 6+ years of ice removal with mobile steamers , we’ve removed snow and ice from ships, construction sites, wind turbine components, and foundations, thoroughly and efficiently. Our trucks are equipped with 200-680 kW, 5 bar pressure ice removal with mobile steamers machines that heat up to 180 °Celsius to remove ice and snow in all weathers. Although we mainly use steam for the removal of ice and snow, it can, in some cases, also be used for cleaning purposes.
Our LARGE truck is for jobs that require several professionals (2-3 AMP technicians) to perform ice removal with mobile steamers tasks simultaneously. The removal of ice and snow from wind turbine foundations or the removal of ice from construction sites’ crusher machines are examples of jobs that are best suited for our LARGE truck.
