BÖWE Textile Cleaning Systems Hall 8, Booth G22
Based in South-West Germany in the Black One of the highlights on the booth will be the new BÖWE shirt press SP22, with its cycle time of just 10 seconds per shirt, which is unique in the industry. Equipped with a large steam radiator, fan, and an innovative heat recycling system, the SP22 also features newly designed condensate traps with no moving parts, ensuring durability and efficiency. Itproduces a perfectly pressed shirt using only 370W of energy. Additional product features include Teflon-coated press heads to prevent shiny spots on dark shirts and an adjustable sleeve height.
The new global innovation - the Böwe overboil protection for distillations (see illustration below). This breakthrough uses a photoelectric sensor that monitors the surface of the liquid in the distillation during the distillation process. If there is increased bubble formation, the sensor detects this situation and automatically breaks the vacuum for a short time. This leads to an increase in the boiling point and a collapse of the foam head. Black-over and dirt transfer are thus prevented. From the Perc and Multisolvent ranges, the latest technology includes the special Black Forest Edition made of stainless steel and with cataphoresis coatings. Visitors can also see the latest
development—a wear-free steam trap made entirely of stainless steel, without mechanical moving parts. This steam trap offers a 10-year warranty, approximately 15% steam savings, and delivers 3-4°C higher temperatures at press heads and steam radiators.
The new shirt press, former, pant press, and ironing table with infrared-controlled special LED lights to detect wrinkles and spots more quickly. Additional features such as an auto-start function when lifting the iron, up-steam, and pneumatic height adjustment make these machines a valuable upgrade for any operation.
Alliance Laundry Systems Hall 8, stand E90
Alliance Laundry Systems will be presenting what is describes as game- changing energy-saving solutions during Texcare International.
“Expectations at Alliance are high for this edition, as Texcare did not take place in 2020 due to Covid restrictions,” said Jean-Baptiste Vandamme, Alliance’s vice president of sales for Europe. “The laundry industry will therefore gather for the first time in eight years in Frankfurt, so we expect a very busy four-day event. Preparations are currently in full swing.” The Alliance booth promises a diverse range of products from its top European brands – Primus and IPSO. This year’s show theme is “Innovate to Sustain,” which emphasises the company’s dedication to innovation.
The highlight of the booth will be the launch of a new range of European- built commercial tumblers, offering improvements in terms of energy use, efficiency, and connectivity.
According to Tijs Denuwelaere, Alliance marketing manager for EMEAI, Alliance will elevate the way it presents its products and technologies to the next level. “We are developing a series of digital experiences, which will allow visitors to discover benefits in an interactive way. Very exciting.”
