Military Equipment Washing
Mission-critical clean
Equipment readiness depends on proper decontamination and cleaning. Riveer’s deployable water systems provide field-ready solutions that meet regulatory requirements while keeping operations running smoothly, whether that’s a single vehicle wash rack or a full corrosion-control program across a fleet.
Environment, corrosion, logistics, and procurement teams have relied on Riveer since 1983 to develop washing and rinsing systems that hold up in the field. From fully deployable closed-loop wash and water treatment systems to heavy duty inspection ramps, Riveer engineers solutions that deploy quickly, operate reliably, and consistently protect mission-critical equipment wherever and whenever they’re needed.
Corrosion Mitigation Through Wash and Rinse Systems
Corrosion is one of the most persistent threats to military equipment readiness, whether it’s a vehicle returning from the field, a vessel operating near saltwater, or an aircraft on the flight line. Riveer’s Tactical Rinse System (TRS) delivers up to 3,000 gallons of water per minute at an aircraft-safe 175 PSI, with wind correction and salt-removal built in for deployed aviation units.
For ground vehicles, the Military Vehicle Wash System (VWS) provides complete undercarriage access for washing and inspection, capturing wash water for disposal in accordance with DoD environmental regulations. Heavy Duty Inspection Ramps pair with vehicle washing to give crews full access to axles, wheel wells, and undercarriages during retrograde and maintenance operations, and for remote locations without reliable infrastructure, the NOMAD off-grid wash system runs on solar, wind, and a standby diesel generator.

Military Equipment Washing FAQs
What is a Tactical Rinse System?
The Tactical Rinse System (TRS) is a deployable, above-ground clear water rinse system for military aircraft. It delivers up to 3,000 gallons of water per minute at an aircraft-safe 175 PSI, using wind-corrected spray monitors to rinse away salt and contaminants that cause corrosion.
How does the Military Vehicle Wash System handle undercarriage cleaning?
The Military Vehicle Wash System (VWS) is a deployable wash system that gives crews complete undercarriage access for washing and inspection, capturing wash water for disposal in accordance with DoD environmental regulations.
Can military wash systems operate in remote locations without utility power or water?
Yes. The NOMAD off-grid wash system is a self-contained wash rack powered by solar, wind, and a standby diesel generator, built for locations without reliable infrastructure.
What kind of decontamination systems does Riveer provide for military use?
Riveer’s decontamination systems combat pathogen spread and other contaminants with rapid decon cleaning solutions, covering the full process from application to rinse, with cleaning solutions customized to the contaminant type and a rapidly deployable design for emergency response.
Can inspection ramps support heavy vehicles during retrograde operations?
Riveer’s Heavy Duty Inspection Ramps are a modular system that assembles without tools and supports equipment up to 80 tons, giving crews full undercarriage access for washing and inspection.
