Housing Associations
Housing associations and communal homes require washing machines, tumble dryers, and dishwashers that are able to withstand high throughput and multiple users while delivering an effective wash and durable, long lasting performance.
Due to the various types of homes in this sector, the requirements for sheltered and housing association laundry equipment can vary greatly.
Individual housing laundry requirements can be extremely diverse necessitating a very efficient, flexible, in-house launderette. A multi-bedded home generates a corresponding high amount of bed linen, bath towels and personal laundry. An efficient housing association laundry facility must be able to deal with a high volume of duvets and pillows economically, as well as offering a professional service for residents’ personal clothing. The challenge is to provide comprehensive laundry care to keep residents satisfied.
MIELE LITTLE GIANTS (PW 6065 PLUS washer-extractor and PT 7136 PLUS dryer) installed in a stack are perfect for laundries where residents do their own personal washing. These can take a maximum dry load of 6.5 kg, and the single dial for selecting programmes, including a woollens programme for hand-washable laundry, is very easy to use. These machines benefit too from the unique MIELE HONEYCOMB DRUM, guaranteeing optimum laundry care.
