TEXCARE 2024 ROUND-UP
online, gathering key data to improve washing and drying times while managing the business remotely. This gives users more control, offering detailed reports on production, cycles, consumption, revenue, and more. It also ensures high-quality processes, guaranteeing hygiene and disinfection in every wash and dry cycle. “Additionally, our new LEMS (Laundry Efficiency Management System) collects data from various counters and centralises it, generating useful metrics for industrial or self-service laundries. Once the data is gathered, it is transmitted via IoT to DomusConnect. The LEMS system enables real-time tracking of water, gas, and electricity usage, and creates detailed, custom reports through DomusConnect. With this system, Domus shows its commitment to innovation and efficiency, providing a complete solution that turns your laundry into an Ecosmart laundry,” said Andreu Arrom, Latin and Spanish laundry director at Domus.
Ecovolution is a new range of energy- saving products from Domus loaded with the latest technology, explained Arrom, with its major benefits listed below: Water: Our goal is to use water efficiently. Our washing machines are designed for better programming and optimisation, and come with ECOTANK reservoirs for water recovery. Energy: Saving energy is crucial in any laundry, which is why our machines are specially built to maximise energy efficiency. Chemicals: Our washing machines are designed to use chemicals more precisely, which means greater savings and better care for garments.
The Ecotank XL water recovery systems, she adds are perfect for front-loading washers as well as sanitary barrier washers as they help create a more sustainable and efficient laundry, allowing water recovery and promoting environmental care. Domus also offers a wide range of machinery tailored to any self-service business. With constant advancements in products and technology, we’ve introduced efficient solutions like the Domus Laundry app, the Domus Laundry Kiosk payment system, and the new Clean&Move container. The new Domus Laundry Kiosk central pay allows self-service laundries to offer the best contactless payment solution, linked to the DomusConnect platform and compatible with the Domus Laundry app. Customers can pay with their mobile or contactless card.

Owners can monitor operations, view graphs, manage multimedia content, set pricing plans, offer discounts and promotions, and check the status of the kiosk remotely. This new payment hub improves the user experience with simple and intuitive operations, lowers management costs, and provides security for both users and owners. Meanwhile, according to Laura Planas, global digital brand manager at Girbau, Texcare was a great experience, offering time to connect with customers and gather insights about industry trends, needs and future perspective.” The Girbau booth was full of people, especially interested in the Genius washer, Sortech – Girbau’s latest solution for automating the sorting of soiled linen – along with other sustainable solutions. The company’s paper banding machine, microfibres filter and water recovery systems also attracted attention. Through cutting-edge RFID technology, Sortech individually identifies garments, reads their chips, and automatically categorises them, offering a highly configurable system adaptable to various productivities and spaces.
Improvements to the Genius series, a connected washer with the fastest cycle on the market, enabling up to 15 cycles per day, boosting your productivity like never before. Its robust design, with 27% fewer repairs than competitors, according to Girbau, ensures continuous operation. 24/7 remote monitoring and control through the Remote Machine Program Editor, allows management of productivity and efficiency
from anywhere.
Girbau’s Zero Water solutions allow the recovery of up to 85% of water, saving money, guaranteeing efficiency, and actively contributing to the environmental protection.
Also attracting attention was the new PRT60 turbo press which can process up to 2,400 kg of linen per hour thanks to its turbo cycle time of just 60 seconds combined with a 30-second press time. By increasing pressing time to extract more water and reduce drying time, launderers can save up to 2.5 kWh per batch of linen. “It was clear that something’s changing around the industry and laundries are putting effort to be more efficient and sustainable in their operations. We received good feedback about our presentations in the booth and our sustainability officer, Joan Vilaseca, participated in a Sustainability Roundtable along with EcoLab and Jensen, discussing the challenges and solutions for advancing energy recovery and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050,” says Planas. – Christeyns, a global leader in textile care solutions, meanwhile prented concepts and technologies that it says redefine efficiency and sustainability in laundry operations. Rather than focusing on individual products, the company emphasised comprehensive solutions under its new ‘WOW – We Optimise Wisely’ initiative, reflecting Christeyns’ mission to enhance washing, energy, and water management processes.
