Built for the days facilities aren't there.
A problem Mark hit constantly, the fix he wanted, the way we sell it, and where it went next.
Nowhere to rinse off
Mark spends real time outdoors, so he knows the moment: sweat dried tight on your skin after a long hike, red dirt worked into everything after a day on the tracks, boots caked and a dog that found the only mud for a kilometre. And no tap in sight.
For years his answer was a cold bottle of water poured over his head, or baby wipes, or just driving home grimy. None of it was good enough.
Any water source, a real rinse
RidgeWash is a submersible USB pump and showerhead that turns whatever water you've got — a jerry can, an esky, a creek — into a proper shower. No plumbing, no install, no gas bottle.
Drop the pump in, hang the hose, pick your flow. Five litres a minute when you want pressure, three when you're rationing water. That's the whole trick.
Honest gear, no hype
We don't pretend RidgeWash heats water — it doesn't. We don't claim it'll survive a war. Mark built one good portable shower, told the truth about what it does, and backed it with a 30-day return and real support.
If that sounds like your kind of brand, you're in the right place.
Now the farms use it too.
We built RidgeWash for hikers and campers, but farmhouses around the country found it just as handy — hosing down a muddy horse, washing boots at the back door, rinsing gear with no tap in reach. So we partner with them now. Read the full story.
