Save time and money with an on-site commercial laundry service.

Commercial operations can save themselves both time and money by avoiding outsourcing their commercial laundry service and choosing reliable industrial laundry equipment for an in-house laundry operation. A commercial laundry function is a key service for any hotel, care home or commercial environment and it is always important to streamline processes whilst ensuring that stringent hygiene standards are maintained at all times.  Forbes Professional helps clients source the best commercial laundry machines for their specific requirements. 

Hotels are establishing highly efficient processes thanks to commercial laundry equipment.

A lot of hotels initially start by laundering just their towels with a view to progressing to processing the bedding in the house at a later stage. This is because laundering towelling items do not require any specialised finishing but enables them to realise significant and immediate savings. Whether clients wish to establish a fully comprehensive laundry function, with numerous commercial appliances and ironers, or a smaller laundry facility for self-service usage, we can find the right solution. With a nationwide network of depots and engineers, we provide a fast, centralised and professional service support for our commercial laundry equipment, which is a huge benefit for multi-site organisations across the UK. 

Regulation compliance is a key consideration when choosing commercial laundry appliances. 

When choosing and installing commercial laundry appliances it is essential to be mindful of the applicable industry and water-board regulations.  Depending n the industry, your organisation will fall into a specific WRAS category which will denote the contamination risk that your laundry process poses to the water supply. It is essential that commercial environments are aware of this and that the industrial laundry machines that they choose meet the stringent hygiene standards for both regulation adherence and infection control.  Forbes Professional is a highly respected commercial laundry equipment supplier and has a team of industry experts who advise all clients as to the applicable regulatory requirements of their industry.  We provide a wide range of industrial laundry equipment that is fully compliant with the most stringent specifications. 

Payment solutions are ideal for self-service industrial laundry machines. 

Payment systems now enable simple card or coin payment solutions for industrial laundry machines.  In order to maximise on footfall to self-service laundry rooms, it is essential to ensure that your industrial laundry appliances are easy to use and can be operated by a number of payment methods. We offer a wide range of payment solutions for commercial laundry equipment, which are highly popular choices for universities and sheltered housing providers.  Forbes provides payment machines that can facilitate contactless, Apple and Android pay as well as top-up card and coin activation.  Our options include managed laundry and revenue share solutions where clients receive a commission from the income generated but are entirely relinquished from the management of the operation.  Some organisations prefer managed laundry options as it simplifies their audit process, increases profitability and delivers complete financial transparency.

Forbes Professional provides a wide range of commercial laundry machines, auto-dosing equipment and chemical detergents to equestrian and animal centres.  

For a livery, cattery or kennels or dog grooming business, keeping animal blankets, rugs and bedding clean and free from disease is of paramount importance. Domestic machines simply cannot provide the disinfection cycles or wash capacity that is required within an animal care setting. Our range of commercial laundry solutions for pet care operations ranges from small, stackable units to large capacity Miele commercial washers and dryers. Equestrian laundry is a very specialist area that necessitates commercial washing machines that can handle large horse rugs as well as saddlecloths, girths and halters. As with all animal care laundry, it also raises the issue of animal hair and mud. As a result, some commercial laundries are unable to accept this type of equestrian equipment.

Laundering in-house can deliver can give back financial and logistical control to the animal centre, but it is essential to make the right procurement decisions. The efficient processing of saddle covers, blankets and sweat rugs is key to reducing the risk of skin infections such as equine fungal conditions, and immaculately sanitised equestrian textiles are essential for creating the right impression at competitions. Our Miele professional machines are heavy-duty, durable and robust enough to handle the laundry generated in any animal care environment.  With industry-specific functionality and programmes to rid animal blankets, bedding and other equipment from hair and bacteria,  our commercial washing machines and tumble dryers deliver an optimum clean whilst being highly energy and water-efficient.
