Is floating pollution on the coast inevitable? Do you think it should be easy and inexpensive to collect?

At EKKOPOL, we believe that bodies of water should receive the same attention as streets: regular, systematic cleaning. The boats used by EKKOPOL make this possible. It operates day and night, without an operator, for all types of pollution, with minimum maintenance and maximum efficiency.

The Waste Cleaner 83 is a pollution control vessel used by Ekkopol. It features a unique and innovative technology for the collection of floating solid and liquid waste, including hydrocarbons.

With its 4-meter-wide "mouth", the Waste Cleaner swallows everything! Plastics and all types of floating waste, hydrocarbons, jellyfish, vegetation, sewage - it's all there! With a suction capacity of 950m3 per hour, you can store around 2000 liters of liquid waste and 800kg of solid waste. 

With its dimensions of 8.80m long and 2.32m wide, this boat can be transported by road, making it easy to work on any stretch of water.
