Compact jet vac tankers ready to star at WJA Trade Show 2025
High performance jetting and vacuumation tankers demonstrating the latest trends in sewer cleaning and waste material management will be among the attractions at WJA Trade Show 2025.
Three manufacturers will be taking compact jet vac tankers to the event, the UK's only exhibition dedicated to all forms of water jetting, at StoneX Stadium, North London, on Thursday 11thSeptember.
They are taking advantage of the expansion of outdoor exhibition space, with two external display areas at this year's show, following the success of the Water Jetting Association's inaugural exhibition last year.
Bucher Municipal, Rioned and ROM jet vac tankers will be on display, reflecting the popularity of smaller specialist drainage vehicles in the UK, especially for delivering services in congested urban areas.
WJA Director Leanne Smith said: "We're delighted to welcome Bucher Municipal, Rioned and ROM, through its sister company AQ-Rent, to WJA Trade Show 2025, which promises to present the world of water jetting in one place.
"It will be the perfect opportunity to see three of the UK's leading compact jet vac tankers in one place. We're expecting them to be a popular draw for visitors to this year's exhibition."
WJA Trade Show 2025 is free to attend with free parking and is easy to access, being just five minutes from Junction 2 of the M1. It is sponsored by PPE manufacturer TST, industrial cleaning specialist Veolia and insurance specialist Howden.
Bucher Municipal decided to take a stand at the trade show after receiving feedback from a customer who attended last year's exhibition.
The company's marketing manager, Ben William, said: "It was clear that the kind of people who'd be interested in our jet vac tankers were at last year's event so we wanted to be part of WJA Trade Show 2025."
Demand in the UK for compact jet vac tankers continues to grow. The three compact jet vac tankers that will be on show at WJA Trade Show 2025 are ideal for smaller drainage companies that want to step up from just offering a van pack service.
As their power and capabilities have developed, they are also being increasingly used by bigger contractors to complement large jet vac units, creating advantages for clients that include improved productivity, reduced traffic management and a smaller carbon footprint.
Visitors to WJA Trade Show 2025 will also be able to view van pack jetting units displayed by Rioned, Flowplant, Superjet, and Jetter Conversions.
AQ-Rent also plans to take a KOKS MultiVac vacuumation unit to WJA Trade Show 2025. It can handle solids and liquids, is ADR-compliant and is designed to be more compact than other vacuum tankers of the same capacity, as well as being easy to clean.
Equipment and services being showcased by other exhibitors include water jetting pumps, jetting nozzles, water jetting hose assemblies, high and ultra-high pressure water jetting services, and specialist insurance services.
Bucher Municipal will be displaying its CityFlex CM40 combination tanker, which has a 3,996 litre tank and a jetting pump that operates at 2,320 psi (160 bar) with a flowrate of 28 UK gpm (127 lpm). Its vacuum pump can lift 1,264 UK gpm (5,750 lpm) at free flow.
Rioned is taking its RioCom combination jet vac tanker to WJA Trade Show 2025. The 7.7t unit delivers a jetting capacity of 2,200 psi (156 bar) to clean pipes with diameters up to 650mm.
The tanker has a 3,000 litre water tank - 2,000 litres for waste and 1,000 litres for fresh water - and a suction capacity of 1,800 gallons per minute.
On its stand, AQ-Rent, part of KOKS Group, will be showcasing the ROM SmartCombi PRO, which has a maximum water jetting pressure of 2,900 psi (200 bar) and a flushing capacity of 100 lpm.
It can be fitted with an air-cooled pump (6,150 lpm) or a more powerful water ring pump (9,600 lpm), and can be fitted with a 3,000 litre or 4,000 litre tank.
