Vortex

The Vortex is Terrafend’s large-format heated soak tank, built for the toughest demands of heavy industrial cleaning. Rugged and reliable, it is purpose-designed for soaking metal and plastic floor grids coated with heavy paint overspray in busy OEM paint shops. With the flexibility to run both ambient and heated chemistries through its temperature-controlled module, the Vortex delivers consistent, high-quality cleaning performance across a wide range of applications.

Engineered to maximise the performance of Terrafend’s EKHO Grid Strip, the Vortex is already helping leading manufacturers move away from outdated, resource-heavy processes such as large caustic tanks, pyrolysis, and fluidised bed cleaning. Its ergonomic footprint and user-friendly layout make overspray removal straightforward, while its industrial-grade construction ensures reliability day after day. Powerful, versatile, and easy to operate, the Vortex is redefining how industrial paint shops manage large-scale cleaning.
