One Partner. More Solutions. 100 Years of Trusted Service.

Running a hotel, care home, hospital, school or shared accommodation facility means managing a complex network of essential services. The fewer moving parts, suppliers and service relationships you have to coordinate, the more streamlined your operation can become.

As a family-run business, Forbes provides a comprehensive range of commercial solutions spanning laundry, ware-washing, detergent and auto-dosing, payment systems, hotel and healthcare TVs, digital signage and IPTV networks.

One experienced partner, multiple specialist solutions and, importantly, one point of contact for ongoing support.

End-to-end commercial laundry solutions

From boutique hotels and independent care homes to large hotel chains, major care groups and healthcare providers, Forbes Professional has extensive experience delivering commercial laundry solutions tailored to individual operational requirements.

We work across hospitality, healthcare, education, care and shared accommodation, supplying solutions that can encompass:

• Commercial washing machines and tumble dryers
• Energy- and water-efficient equipment
• Commercial detergents
• Automatic detergent dosing systems
• Cashless and managed payment solutions
• Installation and commissioning
• Servicing, maintenance and repairs

Working with leading manufacturers including Miele, our team can advise on the right combination of equipment and technology for each environment, taking into account capacity, throughput, efficiency, reliability and whole-life performance.

Whether the requirement is for a single machine or a complete multi-site solution, Forbes provides support throughout the equipment lifecycle.

Commercial ware-washing solutions

Efficient ware-washing is equally critical to many hospitality, care and healthcare operations.

Forbes supplies high-performance commercial ware-washing equipment, helping organisations achieve consistently excellent results while managing energy and water consumption. Bringing laundry and ware-washing requirements together with one experienced provider can also simplify procurement, installation, servicing and ongoing account management.

Hotel and healthcare TV solutions

Our expertise extends from back-of-house operations to the guest, patient and resident experience.

Forbes Professional has extensive experience providing hotel and healthcare TV systems, with solutions designed specifically for the demands of commercial environments.

Whether creating a premium in-room experience for hotel guests or delivering accessible entertainment and information within a healthcare setting, we work with organisations to provide reliable, professionally supported technology.

Digital signage and IPTV

Communication is an increasingly important part of the guest, patient and resident experience.

Our digital signage solutions enable organisations to blend informative and promotional messaging across strategically positioned displays.

For hotels, this might include restaurant opening times, spa information, events, promotions and local information. Within healthcare and care environments, screens can support important information, wayfinding and relevant communications.

Forbes also provides IPTV networks, creating flexible platforms for distributing television, information and digital content throughout hospitality and healthcare environments.

Together, TV, IPTV and digital signage can form a joined-up communications and entertainment ecosystem tailored to the organisation and its users.

Why use multiple providers when one trusted partner can do more?

Managing multiple suppliers can mean multiple contracts, service arrangements, account managers and numbers to call when support is needed.

Forbes Professional offers a more streamlined approach.

By bringing multiple operational requirements together with one established provider, organisations can simplify supplier management while benefiting from specialist expertise across each area.

And when equipment needs servicing or repair, there is one trusted team to call.

Our customers are supported by multi-award-winning service and support, underpinned by the knowledge and experience developed over a century in business.
