Why torbo?
The economic solution.
You can rely on our wet sand blasting machines to remove any contamination quickly and without damage to surfaces while at the same time reducing costs. Our customers are satisfied over the long term because they save on time and material and increase their long-term efficiency.
Our philosophy can be reduced to one very simple formula:
Less effort + less blast abrasive + lower costs = higher efficiency and higher customer satisfaction
The SoftLine models
Small but powerful!
The SoftLine machines are the smallest devices for the simple, effective and gentle cleaning of monuments and facades. They don’t need an extra air dryer, no extra water hose to the nozzle and no heavy or expensive nozzle. Thanks to the control system, the blasting media mixture (80% blasting abrasive and 20% water) and extra water is metered out irrespective of compressed air, so that you can adjust the parameters independently of each other.
