Pay less tax with Nilfisk water efficient scrubber dryers January 29th 2010 The government is encouraging the use of green technology by setting up tax incentive schemes for companies who purchase qualifying equipment. The initiative encourages the use of environmentally friendly cleaning machines and in particular water efficient scrubber dryers. The aim is to encourage businesses to invest in water saving technology.
Manufacturer Nilfisk has been working with ICCMA and DEFRA to define the scheme. The ECA scheme (enhanced capital allowance) allows businesses to claim the whole cost of the qualifying equipment against corporation tax in the first year. For larger companies this allows them to save 28% in the form of a tax allowance. Qualifying machines are listed, by model, on the Water Technology List (WTL) and the manufacturers entitled to use the WTL logo where appropriate.

All companies, irrespective of size or industry segment can claim. Claims can only be made on investments in new and unused plant and machinery. The Nilfisk group claims to have the greatest number of water efficient scrubber dryers approved on the Water Technology List. A total of 49 Nilfisk models are now certified and listed on the ECA WTL web site www.eca-water.gov.uk (click here). Models range from the 450mm BA451 through to the 860mm ride on scrubber dryer the BR855. Models are approved with the benefit of the automated chemical dosing system EDS - Eco Dosage Solution.
