Miele Laundry Machines Deliver a Sustainable Laundry Solution for University Students

Miele machines are becoming an increasingly popular choice for our university and PBSA clients. This reflects a strong commitment to sustainability, energy efficiency, and superior performance. The environmental and long-term benefits make this choice an important one for students and the planet.

Energy Efficiency and Water Conservation

Miele Little Giant commercial washing machines and heat pump dryers are specifically designed to minimise energy and water consumption. The dryers consume up to 65% less energy than traditional commercial dryers, thanks to advanced heat pump technology, which recycles warm air during drying. Miele commercial washing machines also feature load sensors that adjust water and energy usage based on the size of the load, further reducing waste.

Built for Longevity and Performance

Miele’s machines are tested through 30,000 cycles to ensure they are durable enough for heavy usage in a student environment. This longevity means less interruption to facilities and fewer replacements, reducing waste over time. In our experience, for  most student laundry facilities, an 8kg drum capacity is ideal, gently protecting garments and accommodating medium loads efficiently without overconsumption of resources.

User-Friendly and Carbon Conscious

Heat pump dryers, like the Miele PDR 508, are designed with both sustainability and user convenience in mind. These machines save substantial energy and operate without the need for extensive ventilation infrastructure. Their energy efficiency rating is the highest achievable for a commercial dryer, ensuring that the PBSA or university can significantly reduce their carbon emissions.

A Shared Vision for the Future

By integrating energy-efficient, ethical, and high-performance laundry solutions, Forbes continues to help clients to set a benchmark in sustainable operations.

For students, the choice of Miele machines represents a tangible way to participate in their university’s sustainability journey. Though the cycles may take a few extra minutes, but the environmental impact is far-reaching.
