Washing machines in laundries and dry cleaning businesses have to be robust, reliable, economical and easy to use. The fast programmes as well as the high energy efficiency of Schulthess machines have a positive effect on running costs and the environment. 

Heavily soiled articles such as cleaning cloths, mop covers and cleaning pads from industrial cleaners are a challenge in the laundry. Schulthess machines wash hygienically clean and germ-free. The protective drum with up to 15,867 funnel-shaped holes also removes the smallest of particles and protects textiles so that cleaning cloths last for a particularly long time. 

There are no downtimes for laundries in homes and residences. Schulthess machines are designed so that they can deal with large volumes of laundry day and night and, when doing so, meet the strictest hygiene and disinfection stipulations.

Absolute cleanliness is an absolute must in the hotel, gastronomy and catering trades. For both large and small operations Schulthess has the tailored solution for fast and textile-protecting laundering.

The protective clothing of fire and rescue services personnel has particular requirements. The special wet-clean programmes of Schulthess washing machines and commercial dryers are perfectly tailored for the demanding characteristics of these textiles.

Whether it’s a bakery, butcher’s or garage – the demands of commercial businesses on cleanliness and hygiene are high. Running costs are however also a significant factor. The fast programmes as well as the high energy efficiency of Schulthess machines have a positive effect on running costs and also on the environment.

In places where many people use the same facilities and rooms, there is no leeway with hygiene. The same applies to laundry. Schulthess disinfection programmes have been especially conceived for these requirements and completely remove all germs from textiles.

With their disinfection programmes especially developed for this, Schulthess washing machines have the right solution in place. From a temperature as low as 40 °C and an exposure time of only 20 minutes, textiles can be washed and disinfected with certainty.

In launderettes the machines are subjected to the highest strain day in, day out. As they are used by the most diverse of clientele, they must be particularly simple and multilingual in use.  And, of course, robust, low maintenance and reliable: Schulthess machines have been developed and constructed for a long working life.

Industries such as bag and accessories manufacturers place particularly high demands on the cleanliness of the raw materials used. Schulthess industrial machines have 72 profiClean programmes – washers and dryers can be additionally programmed individually for specific needs. Perfectly customised programmes are developed in cooperation with process engineers.

A wide variety of horse blankets and saddle pads are used. Alongside dirt and sweat, stubborn horse hair must be removed without affecting the functionality of the fabric – a requirement conventional devices cannot deliver. Schulthess commercial machines meet these requirements and are at the same time robust, easy to use and designed and engineered for a long service life.
