Frontline Machinery launches washing systems division

Frontline Machinery has launched a specialized division to help Canadian operators take control of rising excess-soil and slurry costs with practical, scalable washing solutions.

The new Frontline Washing Systems combines dedicated washing expertise, modular system design and a national service footprint to help Canadian operators reduce disposal costs, recover value and lower barriers to entry.

The launch comes as construction, aggregates, waste and environmental projects across Canada face mounting pressure from rising hauling costs, tightening landfill and fill capacity and increasing compliance demands. 

For many operators, excess soil and slurry are no longer just a disposal issue. They are a growing cost consideration that can affect margins, schedules and long-term site economics.

While soil and slurry washing technology is proven in international markets, Canada has remained underserved. The challenge is not if the technology works but accessing expertise. Frontline Washing Systems was created to close that gap. That conviction was shaped in part by years of watching European operators adopt advanced recycling and material recovery technologies.

“We realized we needed to bring this technology into Canada and make it accessible, not just to one or two companies, but to the broader market,” said Daryl Todd, President of Frontline Washing Systems. “If it is not accessible, it is not going to help solve the problem we have on our hands in Canada.”

Frontline Washing Systems offers modular, scalable washing solutions that lower the barrier to entry for operators looking to bring washing into their business. The new Frontline division provides a flexible starting point with systems that can be matched to current volumes, site requirements and recovery goals.

“Our focus is on giving Canadian operators a better way forward in a market where hauling, disposal and material handling costs are only getting harder to manage,” said Martin Anderton, Managing Director of Frontline Washing Systems. “This is not about adding another product line. It is about building a specialized capability around a category that now demands more attention, more expertise and more support.”

Anderton previously led Frontline Machinery’s Major Projects group and now oversees Frontline Washing Systems’ project delivery, technical teams and service strategy.

Frontline Washing Systems supports customers through three Canadian locations and employees based in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. 

“This market needs more than equipment availability,” Anderton said. “It needs a team that understands washing applications, understands the cost pressures customers are under, and can support these systems in the field over the long haul. That is exactly why Frontline Washing Systems exists.”
