Vehicle Washing Regulations UK
Cars and large vehicles should only be cleared in an area where the detergent and wash water plus any rainfall can be intercepted; commercial vehicle washing regulations in the UK look to reduce and control pollution. In UK legislation, this is known as prevention of pollution guidelines or PPG13 as well as trade effluent guidance from private water companies like Scottish Water as shown on downloads below.

It can be clearly seen on most cleaning chemicals from bleaches or alkaline degreasers that they are not compliant with discharge into drains or water courses.
For this reason, it can be quickly understood why they need an environmental discharge permit or to be entirely contained and collected and hence the regulations; however, what about if there was a detergent that is entirely safe in drains or a water course and is food-safe?
CarKleen is an eco-friendly car soap of outstanding non-hazardous and non-toxic characteristics that is safe in drains or interceptor tanks.
It is also food safe and a very powerful cleaner for grime and dirt on vehicles that helps you meet vehicle washing regulations without needing to worry about run off into public sewers.
