Founded in
1933, CleanCare
has pioneered many of the important innovations in the linen
care industry including automated tracking systems, training programs
and continuous improvement methods. CleanCare operates three
plants - among the most automated in the country -
bringing efficiency, speed and great capacity to the hospitals,
restaurants and hotels we serve.
The newest
CleanCare plant utilizes an 18-chamber
continuous batch washer where linens are washed, sanitized and dried, and then mechanically fed through ironing and folding machines at a
rate of 200 pounds per minute. The system is so automated and precise that, after the
initial sort, laundry isn't touched until it is positioned at finishing equipment for automatic ironing
and folding. This "hands-off" approach not only streamlines the laundering process, it eliminates
human error and improves the end product for the customer. |
