Laundry for healthcare facilities, in practice
Clinical standards at the volume a clinic actually produces
A private clinic, a dental practice, a physiotherapy centre or a diagnostic laboratory needs the same hygiene assurance as a hospital, on a fraction of the volume. That is an awkward size: too demanding for a general laundry, too small for suppliers geared to hospital contracts. It is a size we are built for.
The processing is identical to what we do for hospitals — strict separation of clean and dirty sides, validated thermal or chemo-thermal disinfection, wrapped batches, full records — but the schedule and the minimum volumes are set for a smaller site.
What we process
Couch covers and examination linen. Patient gowns and drapes. Staff coats, tunics, scrubs and uniforms. Towels and washcloths. Blankets. Reusable textile items used in treatment rooms. Reception and waiting-area textiles where you have them.
Items are sorted by department where you need them kept separate, and returned wrapped and labelled so nothing has to be re-sorted on arrival.
Documentation as standard
Every batch is recorded: contents, programme, temperature held, dosing, date. The framework is the RABC methodology described in UNI EN 14065 — identify the contamination risks, control them, record the control. When an inspection asks how your textiles are reprocessed, the answer is a document rather than a description.
Schedules built for smaller sites
Fixed collection days, one to three times a week depending on volume, with turnaround of 24 to 48 hours. Volumes can flex without renegotiating the contract, which matters when a clinic’s activity is driven by consultant schedules rather than a season.
Indicative pricing runs €1.50 to €1.95 per kilogram. For very small volumes we quote a minimum per collection instead, which is usually the cheaper structure — ask and we will show you both.
If you process on site
Some facilities prefer to keep textiles in the building. In that case what you need is the right machine, the right chemistry and validated programmes: see laundry equipment, including barrier washers with physically separated loading and unloading sides, and laundry chemicals with automatic dosing and documented disinfection. We will also review and validate the programmes you are running today through textile care consulting.

Our process
Four steps, the same every week. No surprises in your operation.
Collection
We collect your textiles directly from your facility, on a schedule agreed with you.
Professional processing
Each item is washed using advanced industrial equipment and carefully selected detergents.
Quality control
Every batch is inspected in our laboratory to ensure consistent quality and hygiene standards.
Delivery
Clean textiles are delivered back to your business on schedule, with a delivery note.
Calculate your cost
A rough monthly range in a few seconds — no contact details needed.
Automatic estimate, VAT excluded. The final price depends on fabric type, distance and agreed frequency, and is confirmed after a free on-site survey.
What you can hold us to
We opened in 2026, so we cannot point at twenty years of client logos. What we can do is put the terms in writing and be judged on them from the first collection.
Rewashed free, no argument
If a batch comes back with a stain that should have gone, we collect it, reprocess it and return it at our cost. You do not pay twice for the same kilogram.
Collection days that hold
Days are fixed when the contract starts and stay fixed through the season. If a route is ever going to be late, you hear it from us before you notice it yourself.
Worn linen reported, not returned
Items past their service life are pulled at inspection and listed for you monthly, so replacement is a budget line rather than a complaint at reception.
One named contact
A person who knows your property, your par levels and your peak weeks — reachable directly, not through a ticket queue.
Every batch documented
Contents, programme, temperature held and dosing delivered, recorded per batch and available to you. What an HACCP or healthcare audit asks for already exists.
Leave when you want to
No lock-in period and no exit penalty. A laundry contract should be kept by performance, and we would rather find out early if we are not earning it.

How can I request a consultation or partnership?
Contact our team by phone, email or through the form on this site. We will discuss your business needs and recommend the most suitable laundry solution for your operation.
How much does industrial laundry cost per kilogram?
Commercial laundry in Italy is priced per kilogram of clean, dry textile. As an indication for the Rimini and Riccione area: hotel bed linen and terry €1.15–1.45/kg, restaurant table linen €1.40–1.85/kg, healthcare textiles €1.50–1.95/kg. Four things move the figure inside those ranges — volume, collection frequency, soil level and distance from the plant.
The number worth budgeting against is cost per occupied room or per cover, not per kilogram. We work that out during the free on-site survey, and the written quote is built around it.
What is your turnaround time?
Standard turnaround is 24 to 48 hours: linen collected in the morning returns on the next scheduled delivery. Collection days are fixed when the contract starts and do not move through the season.
If a property regularly needs same-day return, tell us during the survey — it usually means the circulating stock is too thin rather than that the laundry is too slow, and adding a par is cheaper than paying for express processing.
What happens if linen comes back stained or damaged?
Batches are inspected under controlled light before they are wrapped, so items with surviving stains go back for re-treatment rather than out to a guest room. If something reaches you that should not have, we collect it, reprocess it and return it at our cost.
Items that are worn, thinning or torn are pulled at inspection and listed for you monthly, so replacement becomes a budget line rather than a complaint at reception.
How do I switch from my current laundry?
It is more routine than it looks. We survey the property and count the existing stock, agree collection days and par levels, run the first two weeks in parallel with your current arrangement where you want the safety margin, then take over fully.
Nothing has to happen on a changeover night, and there is no lock-in to sign before you have seen the quality of a real batch.
Is there a minimum volume or a lock-in period?
No lock-in period and no exit penalty. A laundry contract should be kept by performance, and we would rather find out early if we are not earning it.
For very small volumes we quote a minimum per collection rather than a minimum per month, because it is usually the cheaper structure for the client. Ask and we will show you both.
