With complete tunnel systems in each of the 50 United States and equipment in countries worldwide, Sonny's equipment delivers millions of clean, dry, shiny cars each year, around the globe.
Sonny's legacy began in 1949 when founder, Sonny Fazio, built his first full-serve car wash. Upon retiring, he began manufacturing replacement parts and eventually equipment for his son's chain of 12 washes spanning three states. Engineered by a car wash operator for his family, Sonny manufactured equipment to do one thing — help his sons make more money washing cars. Soon, word got out and Sonny was flooded with orders for his reliable equipment that washed better, cost less, and produced a clean, dry, shiny car faster with less hassle and expense. That was the beginning of Sonny's The Car Wash Factory.
Today, Sonny's is the industry leader, recognized and awarded by the International Car Wash Association for innovating new technologies to advance the industry.
We also have a full line of OEM parts for Hanna, Peco, PDQ, Belanger, Macneil, Ryko, and other car wash equipment manufacturers.
