Episode 233: Catching up with Danka Dubak at AVW Equipment Company

In this episode, host Rich DiPaolo talks with Danka Dubak, director of marketing for AVW Equipment Company and a third-generation member of the company’s founding family. Dubak shares how AVW has remained a leading force in the carwash equipment industry for over five decades by consistently delivering modern solutions tailored to today’s carwash operators. We explore the evolution of tunnel carwashes from AVW's viewpoint, including the enhanced capabilities of the modern tunnel and how AVW’s “simplicity in motion” design philosophy benefits both operators and end customers. Dubak also discusses the significant impact AVW’s belt conveyor system — first launched in 2005 — has had on the market. She walks us through the industry's shift from roller and chain systems to belts, the operational advantages of belts, and when it may or may not be practical to adopt them. Finally, Dubak gives us a sneak peek into AVW’s latest innovations and what’s on the horizon for the company.
