Nilfisk-ALTO NEPTUNE High Pressure Washer cleaning Cable Cars in Singapore
This summer Nilfisk-Advance Singapore went into partnership with Fatzer AG, (wire-rope manufacturer for rope-way) to clean one of Singapore’s best loved icons, the Mount Faber Cable Car. The breathtaking procedure was done with the Nilfisk-ALTO NEPTUNE 4 High Pressure Washer.

The cable car system links Sentosa and Mount Faber with towers above the harbor at a maximum height of 300 feet. Some of the spans between towers and stations being as much as 1640 feet. The new system should be able to carry upwards of 1600 passengers at once. This world famous attraction, one which London intends copying for a ride across the Thames, was overhauled at a cost of$36 million recently.
Team Singapore
The successful collaboration was handled with a team of Nilfisk-Advance employees from Singapore, that pulled in all available resources needed to complete the request. As you can see from the letter below, the very difficult cleaning task was done with success and to everybody’s satisfaction.
