Zero-Emission Electric Jetter is the UK’s first in operation

THE MAGAZINE FOR THE DRAINAGE, WATER & WASTEWATER INDUSTRIES CASE STUDIES


London-based drainage firm Kwik Jet is the first UK contractor to put Rioned’s eCityJet into daily operation.

The family business has been a long-term user of Rioned machines and the acquisition of a new electric van-pack jetter is a huge step towards achieving the company’s sustainability objectives.


On a crisp January morning at the Duke of York Square in Chelsea, the Kwik Jet engineers are carrying out routine drain maintenance work for Cadogan Estates. The firm has been operating in Central London for the past 30 years - its core work maintaining the drain networks for some of West London’s most prestigious property management companies. This morning the team have a routine drain clean to do. It’s much like any other day for engineers Gary and Aaron but today they are using the new all-electric van pack jetter under the attentive eye of Managing Director Michael Morris.


Michael explains the decision to purchase an eCityJet rather than a conventional diesel jetter:

“Our clients expect the best equipment and we’ve always invested in the latest technology for the business. We’ve worked with Rioned since the start and we’re excited to be the UK's first to operate the eCityJet.”
