Drought Forces Companies to Seek Alternatives to Pressure Washing

Businesses across the south seek alternatives to pressure washing

Charlotte, NC – November 12, 2007 - J & J Marketing in Denver, Co., announced today its plans to increase production of their Bio-Dry® concrete and asphalt cleaners to meet the demands caused by the severe drought in the southeast. As the water restrictions increase, business owners are diligently searching for alternatives to pressure washing concrete and asphalt. Bio-Dry® waterless cleaners not only meet this need but are also environmentally friendly providing a viable alternative to pressure washing grease, oil and other contaminants that usually end up in storm drains.

Current environmental laws state that it is illegal to discharge waste-water without a permit. Although the laws have been in effect for years by the EPA, enforcement has been slow and with little compliance. As water restrictions become more stringent across the southeast, pressure washing businesses are actually more fearful of losing their business to the drought than the fines imposed by the EPA. Bio-Dry® products use no water and work through a chemical process that uses naturally occurring micro-organisms, emulsification and absorption to breakdown harmful substances to non-toxic compounds.
Charlotte based Concrete Cleaning Technologies, Inc. service manager Brent Leach stated “The pressure washing portion of our business has literally been shut down by the drought. Fortunately, Bio-Dry® has been part of our commercial services for several years and that portion of our business has more than doubled this year alone. Our customers are more satisfied with the results from using Bio-Dry® and the cost is comparable to pressure washing.” Jeff Bullis, co-founder of J & J Marketing manufacturer for Bio-Dry® says “We are pleased to offer a product that meets the strict standards of the Clean Water Act. Bio-Dry® is a far superior alternative to pressure washing grease and oil without any harmful effects to the environment.”
