EBW is present in Nepal, Indonesia, Thailand, Rwanda and Colombia apart from India.

The environment-friendly design recycles and reuses water, keeping operational cost low. EBW has so far serviced over 2.8 lakh bikes and saved over 14.5 million litres of water
Speaking about the store launch, Mr. Niraj Taksande, Co-founder, EBW said, “We are extremely delighted to inaugurate two new stores in Mumbai, after the tremendous response garnered by our existing stores. EBW will now have eight stores in Mumbai. Being the financial capital of India, Mumbai is home to many reputed companies, across sectors. A chunk of the working population here prefers two-wheeler to commute to work. This intensifies the need for quick & prompt two-wheeler services, presenting an appealing market for EBW, in terms of servicing the customers”
EBW constantly endeavours to innovate in its domain. The latest one is its Android application available on Google Playstore which allows customers to locate all the EBW stores in the city and get the service offerings on their mobile screen. This enables seamless booking for the bike wash or service packages and hasslefree payment, online.
Niraj added, “To the first time users at our stores, services shall be available at a discounted price if booked through the EBW Android App”.

The team, alumni of IIT & IIM, has designed and manufactured India’s first fully automated motorcycle wash machine that addresses multitude of problems faced by an individual owner as well as a service station. The machine is capable of washing even the dirtiest of motorcycle within 2-5 minutes, which is the fastest in the world, capable of washing over 230 bikes in under 10 hours.

The machine has been designed and manufactured in house by the team and has a provisional patent. It is extremely efficient in conserving water and power and requires one fourth of the water a conventional wash care requires. Furthermore, the water is recycled for constant use until it is deemed unfit for wash care, which then can be used for gardening purpose. The technology is supported by a strong IT backend and can be virtually monitored from the remotest corner of the world. The store creates employment opportunities for individuals thus contributing to the overall progress of the country and the economy. The EBW concept has improved the overall working conditions for the employees involved in the Bike works industry. A true “Make in India” venture.
