Portable cleaning solution in tyre repair workshop
How Bridgestone Mining Solutions made tyre repair workshops safer and more efficient
Bridgestone Mining Solutions Australia operates some of the busiest tyre repair workshops in the country, supporting mining operations with specialist services and maintenance for massive off‑road tyres. But with big tyres come big challenges—especially when it comes to keeping workshops clean and workers safe.
The Challenge
During tyre repair, technicians generate significant amounts of rubber debris, steel fragments, and fine dust—especially during surface preparation and final buffing. Traditionally, this material was brushed away by hand… but the temptation to use nearby compressed air stations for a quick clean‑down was always there.
And that’s a serious risk.
Compressed air may be great for blowing debris off tyres, but using it on clothing or skin can be dangerous. Bridgestone’s operations and safety teams wanted a purpose‑built solution that removed this temptation entirely—keeping their people safe while maintaining the fast-paced workflow of a modern repair shop.
The Solution
We introduced Bridgestone to the JetBlack Safety Portable Cleaning Station—an ideal fit for workshop environments.
This compact, plug‑and‑play unit delivers high‑volume, low‑pressure, blower-driven air that is completely safe for use on skin and clothing. The portable design means each technician can have their own unit right at their mobile workstation, with a long, flexible hose that reaches all areas of their coveralls.
No more relying on compressed air
No more safety risks
Just efficient, effective, and safe clean‑downs

Testing out the JetBlack Safety Hybrid Personnel Cleaning Booth
One of our clients is a rail company based in Queensland, Australia. Their OHS and Operations teams were seeking a solution that allowed their workers a safe way to remove the debris and dirt that covered them during maintenance on the rail freight cars.
The rail company had never trialled a JetBlack Safety booth before, so we invited them to visit our warehouse in Perth to see the booths in action.
Armed with their own PPE and dirt brought straight from site, the rail team’s Safety Officer and Operations representative ran a series of tests on our demo booth.
What they were most keen to observe, was how much debris could be removed under the hot, humid conditions of Queensland – workers can easily get drenched with sweat while undergoing their work which makes dirt removal more challenging.
We recommended the BH05 booth – JetBlack Safety’s Hybrid, which features oscillating air nozzles to remove the majority of the dirt, but also includes a hand-held hose and nozzle so the user can direct the air into hard-to-reach places.
The booth performed brilliantly and gave them a great result, as seen in the video. The rail team were very impressed (and partly due to the fun time they, and our team, had dusting and re-dusting for each test).
In the end, the rail company purchased two of the JetBlack Safety Hybrid Personnel Cleaning Booths BH05, with potentially more purchases to come.
