Work clothing

Cleanliness and protection for a professional appearance!

Catering, hospitals, industry or trade – each work is subject to job-related soiling against which work clothing protects. Protection, functionality, durability, breathability and low maintenance must be ensured. This places special demands on the reprocessing. Our specialized washing detergents and auxiliaries ensure refined cleanliness and protection for a professional appearance at any time.

General

Trade and industrial applications use a wide range of auxiliaries. Oil, grease and lubricant, metal debris, rust or graphite deposit on the work clothing and cause a minor to heavy soiling of such clothing.

White work clothing is the visual equivalent of hygiene but the typical stains such as spices and marinades, blood and egg yolk, frying fat or sauces soil the textiles and leave visible spots.

However, work clothing not only offers protection or is functional for certain activities, it has far more to offer! Modern work clothing represents corporate identity as well as image and gives a clear public signal for professional competence and quality.

»Hard« washing procedures as usually required by the soiling conflict with the conservation of the clothing’s value. Therefore, we need gentle washing procedures that are still highly effective. Our special washing procedures combine cleanliness with perfect purity. RKI-listed procedures furthermore ensure a maximum degree of hygiene.
