Become a location partner
The bicycle has irrevocably established itself as a piece of sports equipment and a means of transport in our everyday lives.
​
However, there are still no widerange solutions for gentle and sustainable bicycle cleaning. This is why we founded station b. At station b, we believe in building a Switzerland-wide network of cycle wash facilities, to best serve the need of the bicycle community. And if your residents, tourists or customers are into one of these disciplines, you can add "cycle wash" to your list of services.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have any prior experience with location partnerships?
Yes we do have existing partnerships with public administrations and corporates. Usually, we start with a pilot phase to explore the mutual collaboration and the demand for a particular location.
Why are you doing this?
At station b, we believe, that an open network of publicly available bike wash stations is the best way to serve the bike community with a service to clean their bikes in a gentle and easy way.
Is it legal to run a station on our ground?
Yes, of course. Before the installation, we hand in a simple building permit in order to get official approval. This usually includes an operating concept and technical specifications of our facility. Based on experience, this process takes about four to six weeks and we will take care of the entire settlement.
What kind of involvement is needed from our side?
station b takes care of regular cleaning and maintenance after the installation. This means, that there is no effort needed from your side to operate the station.
Are you selling your bike wash stations?
No. This would be against our vision to establish a Switzerland-wide network of cycle wash facilities in urban and rural areas.
