Our extensive services are supported by our workshop based in our Mallusk headquarters.

As part of our service customers have access to a wide range of stocked consumables. These include detergents, foam/coloured foam, wax, polish, and other products that enhance appearance and help with car wash upkeep.

Company Profile

CB Services was originally set up by husband and wife Bill and Carol Collins in 1978. The trading name however was settled on as W.J. Collins Distribution Ltd. CB Services became the Northern Irish partner for Istobal, who are a leading company in the car wash industry with over 75 years of experience.

Since starting out, CB Services has continued to grow and has now become the largest supplier and operator of vehicle washing equipment in Northern Ireland. The company specialises in vehicle washing equipment including rollover carwashes, self-service jetwashes and other forecourt equipment. In addition to the equipment CB Services also manufacture chemicals and other accessories.

Due to the ever-growing workload CB Services decided in 1990 to move into their current premises in Mallusk, just north of Belfast. In 2000 Bill and Carol retired from ownership of CB Services and their son Iain and his wife Jacqui took control. Following the change of ownership the workload continued to grow, leading to there now being 12 employees, including 5 full-time car wash engineers.
