Hygienically Clean
We’re proud to hold TRSA’s Hygienically Clean Healthcare Certification.
Our laundry services pass three rounds of outcome-based microbial testing, ensuring that we deliver hygienically clean healthcare linens and garments with negligible presence of harmful bacteria.
To maintain this certification, laundry plants must pass quarterly testing by third-party inspection to ensure that as laundry conditions change, such as water quality, textile fabric composition, and wash chemistry, the laundered product quality is consistently maintained.
Leading the Way with Green Initiatives
Proud holders of TRSA’s Clean Green Certification.
For years we’ve met the top industry association’s quality standards for effectiveness in conserving resources and minimizing environmental impact. This certification assures our clients that we maximize sustainable practices in all areas of our business.
Environmental consciousness is core to our identity. We lead the healthcare linen industry with forward-thinking green initiatives that reduce environmental impact while delivering unmatched quality and services.
- < ½ gallon of water per pound of linen washed
- 100 million gallons saved annually
- 250,000 pounds of plastic linen bags recycled annually
- 275,000 pounds of worn-out linen recycled annually
In addition, we:
- operate high-efficiency, low nitrogen oxide boilers to generate steam for production.
- reclaim heat from wastewater and boiler discharge to warm incoming water, reducing energy use.
- design many linen products to wash effectively at lower temperatures, extending lifespan and reducing waste.
- use phosphate-free detergents and low-temperature oxygen bleach to reduce chemical impact.
- modify our delivery fleet for fuel efficiency and use DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) to cut emissions.
