How to Cut Costs and Waste in Your Industrial Laundry for Maximum Efficiency

In the dynamic field of industrial laundries, selecting the right equipment and implementing efficient operational practices not only reduces costs but also enhances overall efficiency.

In this article, we will explore five key strategies to optimize energy consumption and promote sustainability in industrial laundries.

Follow these tips to transform your business into a model of efficiency and environmental responsibility, gaining a significant competitive edge.

1 – Choosing the Right Machinery

When it comes to purchasing industrial laundry machinery, the choice can be critical. A common mistake is investing in equipment that does not perfectly align with the specific needs of your business.

To avoid regrets and ensure that each machine operates at its full potential, it is essential to carefully evaluate specifications and functionalities. Our machinery, known for its reliability and efficiency, is designed to offer maximum performance and adapt to any operational need, ensuring impeccable service quality.

2- Regular Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures that the machinery operates at maximum efficiency, preventing issues that could increase energy consumption.

Specific actions to implement proper maintenance include:

  • General cleaning of the machine and particularly the sensors to avoid malfunctions caused by dust and/or residues left by the laundry during processing.
  • Checking nozzles and valves to ensure they are clean and not clogged, allowing optimal flow of water and detergents in washers, air in pneumatic machines, and gas in gas-heated machines.
  • Verifying the integrity of seals and thermal insulations to prevent heat loss.
  • Lubricating transmission parts to reduce friction and energy consumption.

The frequency of maintenance should be based on hours of use or monthly, depending on the intensity of the machinery’s use. A maintenance schedule is provided in the documentation accompanying Indemac machines.

Proper maintenance can ensure energy savings of up to 30% and help reduce CO2 emissions.

3 – Machine Loading and Usage

Using machinery to its full potential is essential for maximizing efficiency. However, it is important to avoid overloading, which can reduce process effectiveness and increase energy consumption per cycle.

For example, in the case of washers, balancing loads according to the machine’s specifications not only optimizes energy use but also ensures uniform and high-quality cleaning.

To ensure fabrics move freely for uniform cleaning and compliance with hygiene standards, it is important not to exceed the recommended maximum load: at the same time, avoiding excessively small loads is good practice to avoid wasting energy and water.

Weight sensors can be very helpful in optimizing loads by providing useful indications.

The same principle applies to ironing machines, where it is important to use as much of the working width as possible to avoid wasting thermal energy and prevent overheating of certain working areas that could damage components or increase wear and tear.

4 – Thermal Insulation

Improving the insulation of your industrial laundry machinery can significantly reduce heat loss and, consequently, energy consumption.

Invest in the latest insulation solutions for your machinery: this will not only reduce energy costs but also improve the work environment, making it more comfortable for users and operators.

5 – Choosing Renewable Energy Sources

Adopting renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind power, to run laundry machinery represents the frontier of sustainability, but it is also a complex process.
While the initial investment may be considerable, the long-term savings and environmental benefits are substantial.

This step not only reduces dependence on fossil fuels but also enhances the company’s image as a leader in sustainable practices. Undertaking a path towards environmental sustainability can ensure your industrial laundry becomes part of a broader and increasingly competitive market.

By adopting these practices and tips, you will not only reduce energy consumption and operational costs but also improve the environmental impact of your laundry, thereby enhancing your company’s reputation.

SMALL AND MEDIUM INDUSTRIAL LAUNDRY: HOW TO MANAGE THEM BEST

A well-organized industrial laundry can make a difference in terms of cost and performance.

To optimize the work, it is necessary to evaluate the spaces and arrange the machinery in an orderly and functional way.
Having a large room available is not always an advantage if you then create a dispersive work environment.

The flows of linen in industrial laundries are very tight, Indemac is well aware of this. To better manage all the processing phases, it is essential to create a work chain that saves time and energy.

Let’s find out how to best organize small and medium industrial laundries.

The indispensable machinery for every phase of work

In a large industrial laundry, it is good to clearly and orderly separate the areas dedicated to washing, drying, ironing and folding.

By creating a well-defined path, employees will save time and work will be more efficient: production will increase, while operating costs will decrease.

Our LA washing machines cannot be missing from the washing area: they ensure maximum performance, reducing water and energy consumption, without sacrificing the quality of the result.
For the most demanding laundries, LA, in its largest version, can reach a load capacity of between 120 and 133 kg.

Drying is then a fundamental step: the ES dryer prepares in the best way the linen for the next step of the ironing.
ES, with high energy efficiency, can process up to 83 kg of load. It is good to be equipped with the appropriate number of dryers, based on the amount of laundry, to immediately move the items from the washing phase to the drying phase.

For the ironing and folding phases, I, IL and ILC cannot be missing: our specialized staff will be able to indicate the best solutions to optimize workflows!

I is a self-drying ironer perfect for handling small, medium and large items. It can be equipped with 2 or 4 rear collectors that allow the collection of the smallest items: an excellent solution to facilitate the work of the operators and not create confusion.

IL, the ironer-folder, can be placed upstream of a further folding line or can also be used as a stand-alone machine. According to requirements, the folding function can be excluded.

Finally, ILC, the leading result of our technological research, is an indispensable machine for small and large laundries: it optimizes the entire operating cycle and improves the quality of the work.
ILC is an all-in-one machine that allows a single operator to insert, iron, fold and stack even large linen.
Wisely positioned even inside a industrial laundry, it can quickly dispose of items awaiting processing.

FTI: OPTIMISE PROCESSING WITH THE NEW MODELS

At Indemac, we work every day to improve and perfect the industrial machinery that we have designed specifically for industrial laundries and hospitality facilities.

Satisfying customer needs is our main goal: thanks to our constant commitment, from design to final testing, we are able to offer a high quality product. But we are not satisfied, we always want to improve and refine our products to create unique machinery.

This is why we have perfected FTI, the towel folder designed for items of different sizes.
FTI can be a key element for your industrial laundry or for your hotel: it guarantees fast and precise folding, ideal for terry items and similar articles.
The presentation of bathroom linen is always synonymous with cleanliness and efficiency in the hotel, which is why at Indemac we ensure an impeccable result.

The new FTI includes versions with 1, 2, 3 and 4 stackers!

FTI XL for speed and efficiency

Our team wanted to ensure that all possible customer needs were met, so we also thought of another version of FTI: the new FTI XL folding machine!

The basic features are the same as FTI, but the FTI XL model is able to fold items with maximum dimensions up to 1200×2400 mm!

FTI XL is also available in versions with 1, 2, 3 and 4 stackers to maximize processing.
Furthermore, both FTI and FTI XL are available in the version with the manual version item selection function and in the automatic version.

In the automatic versions, efficiency and speed are guaranteed: the operator can indifferently insert items of different sizes.

FTI will independently recognize the size of the items to be folded and will automatically create up to 4 stacks of folded items, one for each type.
FTI and FTI XL are the ideal solution for industrial laundries, hospitality and tourist facilities: fully customizable work programs can be set.
