Commercial fabric conditioners are a staple of laundry rooms up and down the country.
However, what are the benefits beyond keeping laundry fresh, how can fabric conditioner improve efficiency and why does it improve the quality of linen in your laundry room?
We also showcase the different options and outline why should you use commercial-grade fabric conditioners over domestic alternatives.
The benefits of fabric conditioner
Some of the benefits of fabric conditioners seem obvious, but there are a wide variety of lesser-known advantages to incorpoating commercial fabric conditioners into your laundry operations.
Softer fabrics
Using a commercial fabric conditioner in your laundry room can improve the experience for customers, as it keeps fabrics feeling soft. This enhances the experience in customers in settings ranging from towels and bedding in care homes through to staff uniforms and tablecloths in a hospitality business.
They help linen and garments feel consistently high quality even for sensitive skin.
Extends the life of your linen
Commercial conditioners also help extend the life of your textiles by coating the fibres, so they experience less friction during the washing and drying processes. This helps to reduce wear, fading and fibre breakage over time resulting in longer-lasting linen and potential long term cost savings.
Faster drying times
Conditioned fabrics usually dry more quickly, as the fibres hold less static along with creasing less to make ironing easier and faster. For organisations handling moderate to high volumes of laundry, this can improve operational efficiencies, save time and use up fewer resources.
Fresher garments
Many commercial fabric conditioners, including the JLA Ultra range, include ingredients that neutralise odours and maintain freshness for longer periods. This is particularly helpful in sectors where hygiene and aesthetics are critical, such as hotels and healthcare environments.
Commercial vs domestic fabric conditioner
Commercial fabric conditioners are key in maintaining the quality, lifespan and overall presentation of linens in professional or demanding environments. They are formulated to withstand frequent wash cycles, are specialised for larger machines and in the case of the JLA Ultra range, ensures environmental compliance with ISO 14001 standards.
For sectors such as hospitality, healthcare and commercial laundry services, using a reliable commercial fabric conditioner is essential for meeting professional standards and ensuring a high quality experience for every customer.
