Current laundry techniques should kill new Coronavirus

McCurdy takes over as HLAC board president

PLAINFIELD, Ill. — Linda McCurdy has assumed her role as board president of the Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC), a nonprofit organization formed for the purpose of inspecting and accrediting laundries processing healthcare textiles for hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities.

McCurdy’s role as president became effective Jan. 1. She succeeds Bradley J. Bushman, who had been board president since 2017.

McCurdy has been an HLAC board member since 2017. She is president and chief executive officer of K-Bro Linen Systems Inc., a provider of healthcare and hospitality laundry and linen services in Canada.

She was named president-elect by HLAC’s board of directors in November 2018. ALN

RICHMOND, Ky. — With cases of the now-named COVID-19 disease outbreak from China being diagnosed in the United States, many laundry workers may feel anxious and uncertain in what precautions they need to take.

Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are commonly present in animals and the environment. What makes this Coronavirus different is that it is classified as a novel or new strain, called 2019nCoV, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Novel viruses can spread quickly and infect more hosts because the host has no immunity against the new strain. The CDC says outbreaks of novel viral infections are always a public health concern, especially if the virus spreads quickly and the severity of the illness is high.

The U.S. government and the World Health Organization (WHO) have taken

steps to get ahead of this situation by implementing a public health emergency alert, which allows the government to put in place measures to limit the spread and avoid another widespread global pandemic like we had with the 2009-2010 H1N1 outbreak.

Based on data published on the CDC’s website (Feb. 12), there have been a total of

427 cases under investigation in the United States, but only 14 cases have tested positive for the virus, 347 have tested negative and 66 are still pending. It is expected that these statistics will change daily as more results of those screened become available.

It is important to note that even though

First Veterans Affairs West Coast steamless laundry opens

LOS ANGELES — Dedication ceremonies were recently held for the renovated textile care processing facility at the West Los Angeles VA Medical Center here, now considered one of the most automated facilities in the VA system, reports Western State Design Inc. of Hayward, California, and R.W. Martin Company located in Kent, Ohio.

Western State Design and R.W. Martin Company were the government-selected contractors to modernize the textile care processing facility, which was originally built in 1999.

More than 100 attendees enjoyed tours, presentations and refreshments at the open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony held on Jan.16. Members of the laundry industry and VA senior management gave pre-

sentations regarding the systems design and operational improvements.

Shawn Martin, CEO/project manager of R.W. Martin Company, gave a detailed explanation regarding the project management challenges of such a unique initiative.

R.W. Martin Company says the modernization effort has already received numerous national VA awards for energy and water conservation and has passed all locally required emission reviews of the Chicago Dryer gas-fired flatwork finishing system.

In concert with continuous batch washing and drying, the new laundry design also includes a staph barrier anteroom for washer-extractor operations—a first for the entire VA system, R.W. Martin Company says.

The modernization of this 45,000-square-

foot laundry facility was completed in phases over the past several years, with a total cost estimated at $14 million.

R.W. Martin Company says key equipment partners supporting this modernization-automation effort were Pellerin Milnor Corp., Chicago Dryer Co., E-TECH, Parker Boiler, Thermal Engineering of Arizona, Softrol Inc. and Colmac Industries.

Project design was provided through David Pelligra Architects Inc. of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. R.W. Martin’s Timothy Campbell served as project superintendent.

The facility provides healthcare laundry services for VA West Los Angeles and VA Long Beach Healthcare Systems.

Your Views Survey:

Many operations use more than one linen tracking method

CHICAGO — When it comes to goods, laundry and linen services need to know what’s happening with their product. That’s because textiles can far too easily go astray, leading to greater costs for operations.

So, laundry services have taken to using a variety of tracking options, according to a recent American Laundry News Your Views survey.

Almost 90% of respondents say that their operations make use of some type of tracking system for their linens.

The top two types of systems used? Piece count and weight, with both types utilized by nearly 52% of managers taking the survey. The next most used is radio-frequency identification (RFID) at 38%, followed by bar codes (31%) and labels (24%).

When asked why their companies use tracking systems, 75% of managers say it’s for inventory purposes, followed by eliminating waste at 64%. Almost 47% say they use tracking to assess productivity.

Other reasons given by respondents include, “Developing par levels” and “Projected order fill.”

One manager of a laundry/linen service that doesn’t use linen tracking methods says the company doesn’t because, “We’re one resort and we do in-house, so there’s no need.”

Another says it’s because, “We’re a COG laundry.”

When asked, “If you process customer-owned goods (COG), do any of those customers use tracking methods,” nearly 47% say yes, while 23% say no. Just over 3% didn’t know if their customers use linen tracking, and almost 27% of respondents don’t process COG.

For COG laundries whose customers do use tracking, the systems used mirror those of laundry operations with weight (53%) and piece counts (47%) leading the way. These were followed by RFID (33%) and labels (20%).

Unlike the laundry response, no COG customers use bar codes, according to respondents.

One survey taker did say that it has a customer that uses a manual tracking form to keep an eye on its linens.

When asked if, in general, the tracking of goods has increased or decreased over the past five years, almost 65% of respondents say it has increased. Nearly 23% say tracking levels have remained the same, while no survey taker sees a decrease in tracking. Almost 13% are unsure of tracking levels in the industry.

Technology and automation have seen major leaps in the laundry indus-

try, so RFID tracking has been getting a lot of press. However, when asked if the use of RFID has increased or decreased over the past five years, more than 46% of respondents didn’t know.

Another 46% say the use of RFID tracking has increased, while 7% indicate it has remained the same. No survey takers say RFID tracking levels have decreased.

When asked the value for a laundry/linen service to use RFID tracking, 46% of respondents say “very valuable,” followed by “somewhat valuable” at 31%.

Almost 20% of survey takers say laundry use of RFID is “not really valuable,” followed by “not valuable at all” at almost 4% of respondents.

Of those who express a lower impression of RFID value, reasons centered on reliability and usability:

• Errors with readers and RFID chips themselves coupled with lack of ROI when all costs are truly known.

• Customer disagrees with results.

• If a customer calls and says they’re missing something, explaining that your system shows they should have inventory is not a satisfactory answer to them.

• This would be difficult with personal items and small items like washcloths.

• Unreliable.

• As cost decreases and the reliability rate of the scanning process increases, RFID will become more valuable.

While the Your Views survey presents a snapshot of readers’ viewpoints at a particular moment, it should not be considered scientific. Due to rounding, percentages may not add up to 100%.

Subscribers to American Laundry News e-mails are invited to take the industry survey anonymously online each quarter. All managers and administrators of institutional/OPL, cooperative, commercial and industrial laundries are encouraged to participate, as a greater number of responses will help to better define operator opinions and identify industry trends.

Milnor has a better solution through dilution.

When Milnor introduced PulseFlow® technology, CBW® washing was thrust into the future. The idea of balancing time, temperature, mechanical action and chemistry was missing one critical piece of the pie – DILUTION through the efficient use of water.

PulseFlow combines the innovative RecircONE® fast wet down and chemical immersion in the first module with standing bath washing in every spacious process module. Thorough and efficient dilution occurs by way of intermittent high velocity counterflow rinsing and traditional True Top Transfer.

The result is hygienically clean linen using less water (as low as 0.3 gallons per pound/2.5 liters per kilogram) and less energy as proven time and again by hundreds of PulseFlow tunnels in a variety of laundry applications worldwide.

Information at your fingers

Every year, my focus when putting together the March issue of American Laundry News is on what takes up most of the issue: the annual Buyer’s Guide.

However, developments related to healthcare laundry operations made this cycle a bit more challenging. Of course, I’m talking about the outbreak of the new Coronavirus disease that’s making its way around the world from China.

While purchasing the right products and services is important, it’s vital that laundry operations know how to safely handle and process linens potentially infected with a new disease.

That’s why I contacted knowledgeable folks like infection prevention consultant Fontaine Sands and healthcare laundry operators Edward McCauley and David Griggs. You’ll find their take on the situation on pages 1 and 6.

From The Editor’s Desk MATT POE

Not only was there a new Coronavirus outbreak, there was a voluntary recall of certain disposable surgical gowns manufactured at unauthorized sites in China. Turn to page 6 to read HLAC’s reminder about the value of reusable, laundered gowns.

These stories made updating the 2020 Buyer’s Guide a little more interesting, but once again, inside you’ll find as up-to-date

as possible information on companies and the products and services they provide that you need, from air vacuum units to wrapping systems/products.

The guide is easy to use. You’ll find the product or service that you’re in the market for in our Product/Service Directory starting on page 10.

From that listing, you’ll see all of the companies that offer what you’re in need of. Then, turn to the Company Directory beginning on page 24 to find their contact information so you can further investigate the companies and their products and services.

You can also access the guide online. Just log onto www. americanlaundrynews.com, click “Resources” and then “Buyer’s Guide.”

100 years of TCATA, conference ‘creating a path to the future’

WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla. — The Textile Care Allied Trades Association (TCATA) will celebrate its 100th anniversary during its 2020 Educational & Management Conference at The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort in Hilton Head, South Carolina, April 20-May 2, shares conference chair, Mack Magnus of M & B Hangers.

TCATA says it believes takeaways from the speakers this year will provide valuable insights that members can implement into their own businesses.

The keynote speaker this year is John R. DiJulius III, according to Canessa and Trevor Hericks, of Fabriclean Supply, business committee co-chairs. DiJulius is considered the authority on world-class customer service and is the author of three books on customer experience.

He is the president of The DiJulius Group, a cus-

tomer service consulting firm that works with companies like Starbucks, Chick-fil-A, The Ritz-Carlton, Nestle, PwC, Lexus, and many more. He is also the founder and owner of John Robert’s Spa, named one of the top 20 salons in America.

The association will also hold a gathering for TCATA’s Young Executives again this year to provide an opportunity for young leaders from the laundry and dry-cleaning sides of the industry to network. Jenna Johnson of Chicago Dryer is the chair of the Young Executives committee.

Gene Williams of American Laundry Products, golf chair, invites all members to participate in this year’s golf tournament on Thursday, April 30.

Stephanie Magnus, M & B Hangers, will host Spouses and Guests at this year’s program on Thursday, April 30. ALN

Value of adaptability (or ‘Is there a better way?’)

I have often thought about writing the definite book on laundry management.

I learned so much over my 44 years in the laundry business and my over 100 consulting jobs. Also, I have been publishing a monthly article for over 25 years.

One major lesson I learned over these years is that there are no absolute rules that can be applied to every laundry. The size of the laundry, the equipment available for use, the mix of product and mix of materials require rules to be flexible and individually adapted to each laundry.

I have written a number of articles about how to set up a soil sorting area and the number of sorts a laundry should perform. Washing equipment is the first major concern. Open pocket washers and tunnel washers do well with mixed loads but side pocket washer-extractors require sorted linen with the same water absorption characteristics and weight so that they will stay in balance.

Sorting linen in the soiled state is faster and easier than at any other point in the process. It also allows the facility to remove single-use items, lost hospital equipment and just plain, old trash from the linen before washing, therefore increasing the quality of the wash and the life of the linen.

Most laundries sort linen into categories to speed up the processing on the clean side. Larger laundries will normally have more sort categories than smaller laundries. Laundries that process customer-owned goods (COG) will normally have fewer sorts than those that are linen rental.

Finding unique solutions to your laundry is the key management responsibility of the management team. Ideas like rotating job assignments every two hours may seem like a great idea on paper, but some employees are star performers on a particular job and prefer to work at that job all day.

When I first started in the laundry business, my boss tried to discourage the employees from talking to each other while working together on a piece of equipment. He had been trained that talking is a distraction and will slow production down.

This laundry had a number of employees from the isle of Tonga, and this particular group of Polynesian employees performed better when they could talk and sing. Happy employees are more productive than unhappy employees. It took some data gathering on my part to show him that there was an exception to his rule.

We also had several deaf employees working for us, and in order for them to talk to each other required the ability to stop work and to start using their hands to communicate. Obviously, this was an excellent example as to why employees should not talk to each other.

General laundry rules can be found for each and every area of the laundry but all these rules must be adapted to your facility and your unique requirements. I have often said that visiting other laundries and seeing their adaptations will increase your ability to go back to your laundry facility and see changes that will benefit your operation.

The enemy of good management is complacency and the belief that what we are doing is the best possible way to get things done. The more the management team sees the need to review the current process and ask the simple questions “Is there a better way?” or “What happens if we try this?,” the better the performance of the laundry will become.

this is a new strain with a large number of people becoming ill in China, the current overall mortality (death) is low, around 2%, and similar to the mortality rate associated with seasonal influenza.

PRECAUTIONS

For the laundry industry, there are no recommended changes in normal laundry processing of textiles from the CDC, as the current textile processing standard of appropriate time, temperature and chemical should kill the virus.

For employee exposure risk on the sorting side, again the CDC has made no recommended changes in textile han-

dling procedures at this time. Viruses usually do not live outside a live host for long periods, especially on porous surfaces like textiles, limiting the potential exposure risk to laundry personnel who will be handling the laundry hours or days after use.

tiles. Normal sorting practices of contaminated healthcare linens should include the use of gloves and frequent hand hygiene, at a minimum.

According to the CDC, there is a higher risk of exposure with close direct person-to-person contact than with indirect contact of potentially contaminated objects. Since laundry personnel are not providing direct care to ill patients, PPE requirements per OSHA’s bloodborne pathogen standards and following good hand hygiene practices should limit the exposure risk of handling contaminated textiles.

Based on current infection control practices, laundries should include the use of standard/universal precautions when handling tex-

HLAC reinforces awareness of industry best practice in sterility, safety for gowns

PLAINFIELD, Ill. — Hospital and healthcare professionals have expressed renewed concern about the sterility and safety of disposable surgical gowns following the recent voluntary recall of AAMI Level 3 surgical gowns manufactured at unauthorized sites in China.

On Jan. 30, the recall was extended to include procedure packs that contained the gowns and that had been kept on voluntary hold since the announcement of the initial recall.

These events have heightened the industry’s awareness of the need for strict risk management in ensuring the safety of operating room gowns and other hospital textiles and sparked calls for increased vigilance in this fundamental of patient health.

The Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC) reminds hospitals whose personnel and patients seek reassurance that compliance with its standards for laundering the gowns and textiles with which they have daily contact contributes to the protection of public health.

“A site investigation of the unauthorized manufacturer found open windows, a door that was not properly secured, food within the production area, and inadequate facilities for washing hands,” notes HLAC president Linda McCurdy. “Each of these conditions introduces the risk of exposure to bacteria or the growth of other organic matter that could become deadly in an operating room.

“Conversely, reusable gowns that are processed in an HLAC-accredited laundry must comply with standards created to eliminate these risks. As a further safeguard that’s easily implemented because they are local, these processing facilities are subject to unannounced inspections by infection prevention and other hospital officials.

“Hospitals and other medical institutions that partner with accredited laundries can offer credible reassurance to their staff and patients that the recent recall is no barometer of healthcare textile safety

perils in their operating rooms or on their premises.”

The organization reminds healthcare professionals and the public that:

• Reusable surgical gowns are subject to a two-part cleaning process. First, they are laundered to established infection prevention standards, and then they are sterilized in a healthcare laundry’s or the surgical center’s or hospital’s own pack-room. Local processing facilitates inspections that ensure compliance with best practices, fosters open communication with processing staff, and promotes the transparency that is essential to sustained, reliable performance.

• The organization notes that in addition to offering the highest caliber of assurance on safety and public health concerns, reusable surgical gowns provide employment to workers in hospitals’ and surgical centers’ own communities. As a result, those medical facilities play an active role in supporting the local economy.

• Their social welfare benefits extend to reducing the waste that is associated with climate change concerns. Singleuse gowns must be disposed of as regulated medical waste. A 2015 study published by Lac-Mac reported that adopting reusable rather than disposable textiles “can reduce surgical waste by an average of 65%.”

• Reusable surgical gowns also outperform disposables as measured by several criteria. In a 2010 study conducted at two large hospitals in Washington, D.C., Conrardy et al. found that 86% of surgeons and surgical technologists rated reusable gowns as superior in comfort, and 87% rated them superior in ease of use. Only 6% of participants stated a preference for disposable gowns.

The extensive inspection checklist and additional information are available at HLACnet.org.

Gowns, masks and eye protection can also be worn if the laundry worker is concerned about splashing or aerosolization of microorganisms. As long as laundry workers utilize standard precautions, the risk of exposure should be absent or very low.

SUMMARY

VirusContinued from Page 1 Sands

Novel viruses are epidemiologically important, as they can spread rapidly, and it takes time, resources and quick action to identify their genetic make-up, implement containment controls and develop vaccines to prevent ongoing disease.

COVID-19:

The U.S. government and WHO have sounded the alarm so all countries take the necessary steps to prevent the on-going spread of this virus, while we learn about its genetic and epidemiological properties. This does not mean that these alerts should cause panic, but make everyone aware of the situation and to take the necessary steps to limit the spread of this disease.

The CDC frequently updates information on its website, and laundry operators can follow the status at www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019ncov/index.html ALN

Operators recommend material handling, chemistry reviews

CHICAGO — As the COVID-19 disease outbreak from China, caused by the Coronavirus strain 2019-nCoV, continues to grow, information is key for laundry and linen operations that serve healthcare clients.

American Laundry News contacted healthcare laundry providers on the situation and received input from Edward McCauley, president and CEO of United Hospital Services in Indianapolis, and David Griggs, general manager of Superior Linen Service’s Healthcare Division located in Muskogee, Okla.

For McCauley, proper material handling and donning of personal protective equipment (PPE) is vital.

“As most are aware, the soil sort departments of healthcare laundries treat all soiled linens as if they are contaminated,” he points out. “This means that these workers are fully gowned, gloved and depending on the severity masked and capped.

“That said, some laundries are deficient in methodology and procedures around standard precautions, such as proper donning and doffing of the gowns and other PPE.”

McCauley says that if PPE aren’t put on properly, contamination could make its way into the cracks and crevices of the improperly donned gear. Likewise, if PPE aren’t taken off properly, the contamination could touch the skin by mistake.

“Proper training in this area will give our employees the confidence they need to know that they will be safe when handling these contaminated linens,” he adds.

McCauley goes on to say that healthcare laundries should be “doubling down” on the best practice for preventing any virus from compromising their workers—to wash hands for 20 seconds with soap or alcohol and to never touch any part of their faces with their hands.

“If these two measures are consistently followed, then our employees will be safe from the spread of Coronavirus,” he says.

Griggs points out that the early symp-

toms of COVID-19 are the same as the flu normally see this time of year, so a hospital may be unaware it is dealing with a case from 2019-nCoV.

“Fortunately, healthcare laundries are trained to handle all soil linen as contaminated, and as long as they are following guidelines set by Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC) and TRSA Hygienically Clean standards, the laundry personnel will be protected,” he shares, echoing McCauley’s statements.

Some of the steps are as follows:

• All soil linen should be bagged at the hospital before it is placed in the transportation cart. No loose linen should be transported between facilities.

• All soil room personnel should be wearing their PPE—plastic gloves, barrier coats, medical face mask and glasses.

• The soil room should be cleaned and disinfected at the end of the shift.

• Carts should be cleaned and disinfected before they are reused for clean linen.

Griggs says the linen itself will be decontaminated using a standard healthcare formula, adding that “it would be a good time to have a representative from your chemical provider perform wash titrations to ensure all chemical and temperatures are reaching disinfecting levels.”

“There is no need to treat healthcare linen any differently than how we do it as an industry now, as we already treat the linen as if it is contaminated with blood, viruses and bacteria,” McCauley adds.

“As long as we are diligent in properly donning and doffing our PPE and following other important blood borne pathogens protocols, our employees will be safe.

“There is no evidence to suggest that this particular Coronavirus will survive the wash chemistry and temperatures in the wash-and-dry process, and so we are confident that our entire laundry process is sufficient to kill the virus and yield hygienically clean linens.”

GROWTH COMES FROM SOLID ROOTS

Asking the right questions for OPL equipment sizing

BY MIKE HAND

HOUSTON — Bigger is not always better.

That’s true when talking about cities, homes, cars, food portions or even your business pursuing growth just for growth’s sake.

But it’s also very true when considering the size of washing machines and dryers for onpremises laundry applications.

Many people assume that the bigger the facility, the larger capacity washer they will need. However, laundry rarely arrives all at once. Many times, multiple smaller-capacity machines make more sense, as they keep loads of laundry flowing, rather than having staff sitting around and waiting for enough linen to fill larger equipment.

If sales people are doing their job, they’re just not selling washers and dryers. They’re educating laundry managers and property general managers on what they need to do their laundry job right.

Many customers know they need a washer, but they don’t know what size machine they need, if it should be high or low G-force, or if they need a reversing or non-reversing dryer.

Distributor sales staff often need to educate their clients, but they also need information to help direct the correct solutions.

Many factors should be considered when deciding on the correct equipment sizing for onpremises laundry applications, including the type of garments being washed, the type of facility, the number of shifts doing laundry and the size of the facility. That means asking questions, lots of questions. In fact, a lot of the same questions should be asked, no matter what type of facility you have.

In a hotel, for instance, do you

have banquet facilities or full-service restaurants? Are you washing table rounds and napkins, or doing straight room linen? How many rooms are in the hotel? Are you doing your laundry in one shift or two? Do you have a pool or waterpark and are you providing the towels?

If it is a high-end hotel, where you need to turn rooms over fast, you’ll need a high G-force machine and a dryer with overdry protection so you don’t burn the linens.

In a nursing home, you need to answer how many beds, how many shifts do laundry, and what type of patients are cared for. Long-term care could mean memory care to assisted living and there is a big difference between those two.

Those living in an assistedliving facility are sometimes doing their own laundry, while patients in a memory unit will mean you’re dealing with some very soiled laundry, so you want to make sure you’re washing the laundry with the right temperature water.

Some manufacturers have machines with temperature control that allow you to maintain a specific water temperature throughout the wash. That’s important, especially in states

that require nursing homes do the laundry at 165 F, both fill and exit, such as Ohio.

In prisons, you’ll need to determine how many inmates, if you’re washing inmate’s clothing separately or together, and how many shifts. Do any inmates have diseases like HIV? If so, you’ll need to wash those items separately in a special bag that dissolves in hot water to keep contaminations from affecting everyone else’s bedding.

A lot of prisons have finishing equipment and will launder guard uniforms because inmates provide free labor. That’s a big savings since labor generally contributes 45 to 50% of the laundry budget.

For fire departments, you need to ask many of the same questions, such as the number of firefighters in house and if the station wear will be washed onsite. But you also need to make sure the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) codes and standards are followed.

For instance, firefighters can’t wash anything over 100 G-force extraction, and they are limited in what they can put in the washing machine, due to the contaminants and carcinogens that gather on their gear from fighting fires. In addition, much of the gear,

like Kevlar and fire barrier fabrics, can’t be tumble dried. That gear must be hung in drying cabinets with forced air, ensuring all parts of the gear are totally dry.

Why so many rules and regulations? The answer is simple: safety. For instance, if a cuff on a uniform is still damp when a firefighter is fighting a fire, he or she may receive steam burns.

Many people also falsely believe that it’s okay to run smaller loads than the machine’s capacity. That is wrong. It’s inefficient and wastes water and chemicals, in addition to being hard on key components of the washerextractor. Today’s machines are meant to be workhorses. You’re putting more stress on the bearings if you aren’t loading them full.

We have one hotel that persistently tells us they should only be putting in 70% of the laundry capacity, believing they get a better wash with more swooshing, and they have created problems for themselves on the service side, because bearings are going out sooner than their life expectancy.

There are many real-life examples, where buying the right

Team from the VA Central Office in Washington, D.C., recently certified that the new laundry facility meets the government’s rigorous requirements for productivity, automation, systems management and reporting, quality assurance, design, installation, and safety.

Additional steamless automated laundries are currently planned for VA Healthcare Systems in Brooklyn, New York; Bay Pines, Florida; and Brockton, Massachusetts. ALN

laundry equipment for the facility will save time and money. For instance, we have a customer who is building a 100-room hotel and thought he needed two 45-pound washers and two 75-pound dryers. We were able to convince him of the benefits of high-featured equipment, and it’s saving him time and money on utilities and labor.

The washers and dryers communicate with each other in real time, and the general manager can get a daily or weekly report that tells him how efficiently the laundry is operating. He can keep an eye on if a washer is down, and if he’s getting complaints from guests that linens are dirty, he can look at what detergents are being used and what cycles, and see if an attendant is rapid advancing the process so he or she can get out of work sooner.

In addition, a 400 G-force extraction delivers maximum water removal for decreased drying times, as well as maximizes throughput, while reducing gas and labor costs. Its over-dry protections use sensors in the cylinder to detect the ideal dryness level and automatically stop the dryer once it is reached.

It, too, delivers maximum throughput per labor hour to greatly reduce your labor costs, and eliminates the industry-average eight minutes of over-drying per cycle to help maximize your utility costs. ALN

Project Spotlight:

Vantage Healthcare Linen

WITH THE NEW OUT WITH THE OLD

Todd Lohr, Vantage Healthcare’s Director of Operations, was extremely satisfied with the production of their Braun equipment over the years, as well as his experience with Braun’s service and parts organizations. As a result of his experience with Braun, Todd quickly arranged to meet with the Braun team for consultation, and the opportunity to replace his existing equipment.

the allocated facility space and provided the most efficient processing environment. All of this was accomplished while making certain these efficiencies were retained, and in some cases enhanced, as Vantage extended operations and looked to the long-term growth and sustainability of their business.

Braun’s design proposal and scope of work was developed under the requirements for retooling the existing laundry operation at Vantage Healthcare Linen and focused on a solution that maximized the use of

Braun’s approach to integrated project management was leveraged to maintain the project schedule in accordance with the agreed-upon objectives and set forth by Vantage Healthcare Linen. Braun coordinated the equipment delivery and freight loading plan to coincide with the rigout of the existing equipment and the off-loading of the new equipment. Braun’s expertise in equipment rigging was key given the aggressive timeline for project execution. In addition, Braun partnered with an experienced 3rd Party MEP contractor to execute the equipment utility systems installation. The MEP Contractor was responsible for reviewing and validating the existing utility systems in the Vantage Healthcare facility to make certain all were sized accordingly to support the requirements of the new equipment. To ensure the plant did not experience lost production, work was completed during off-shift hours as well as on weekends. The Braun Project Management Team prepared and provided all the equipment specifications as well as the utility connection overlay to the MEP contractor so fabrication of raw materials to support the installation could be completed in advance to expedite the schedule. All the coordination and planning, including project meeting sessions on-site as well as via teleconference, resulted in a safe and effectively executed retool of the laundry.

When Vantage Healthcare Linen, Erie, Pennsylvania realized the need to replace their 24 year old Braun batch tunnel washing system, dryers, and small piece folders, they looked no further than G. A. Braun, Inc.

IN

Left-to-Right; CJ Spencer, Regional Sales Manager, G. A. Braun, and Todd Lohr, Director of Operations, Vantage Healthcare.

The plan was continually reviewed and refined in preparation for the project execution to assure that the provided solution exceeded the level of production and quality expected by Vantage Healthcare Linen.

“Analytical details combined with concise presentation materials are critical so that the business owner can make important strategic decisions. Equally important was adherence to project activity timelines. This was essential to complete Vantage Healthcare’s laundry re-tool on-time and on budget. We also provided a complete ROI analysis which included savings of all utilities, parts and maintenance, labor, and a reduction in linen replacement costs”; stated Cliff Quick, Director of Inside Sales and Project Management, G. A. Braun, Inc.

The team at Braun developed a detailed project activity timeline in coordination with Vantage to determine the appropriate timing and activity for both the installation and training of the staff for all provided equipment. “The facility re-tool required minimal downtime with extremely tight schedules”; stated Quick.

Braun’s equipment solution included a 130 lb. 16 chamber 130 lb. remanufactured Batch Tunnel Washing System, a 130 lb. remanufactured batch press extractor, 150 lb. dual cake elevating/nesting shuttle, 5-each new 300 lb. side-by-side gas system dryers, and 3 new Precision Series Small Piece Folders.

“With Vantage Healthcare growing, we know we made the right decision to partner with Braun. The regional sales manager, service, and project management team are A-1”; stated Todd Lohr, Vantage Healthcare’s Director of Operations.

“The remanufactured tunnel looks and functions like new, as does the remanufactured press, and we were given a new machine warranty for both!

Our new Braun side-by-side dryers allowed us to add two additional dryers to our layout in the same footprint as the old system. This provided us with the capability to add more processing capacity without taking up more space, and the process is more efficient.

We selected Braun’s Precision Series Small Piece Folders because of their durability, speed, and ease of maintenance. Braun was able to put three machines where their competitors could only fit 2, and those were not capable of the production rates for healthcare items as the Braun machines are.”; added Lohr.

Braun’s ultimate goal is to complete value-adding projects on-time and onbudget, in line with the goals and expectations of our client partners through comprehensive analysis, consultation, design, and installation.

Track Career

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — G.A. Braun Inc., a laundry and textile equipment manufacturer located here, reports that Jack Harlander has joined the company in the position of project manager on its inside sales and project management team.

“In his new role, Jack will be responsible for working with our commercial sales team to qualify equipment for both Braun’s domestic and international customer base,” says Cliff Quick, Braun’s director of inside sales and project management.

“He will be working with our clients and third-party partners to coordinate equipment installation requirements and scope-of-work details, completing business and technical proposals for projects, facility layout design activities, and managing the execution of projects.”

Harlander is a graduate of Clarkson University and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering and management. Most recently, he served as project manager for a firm specializing in bridge and highway construction services for select private and public clients.

Harlander also served as a project manager and system engineer for Universal Instruments in Binghamton, New York. In this capacity, he was responsible for managing all aspects of project execution, customer communications, technical reviews and the product acceptance process.

“We are extremely excited to have Jack join Braun as our business continues to grow,” adds Quick. “I am confident that he will further strengthen capabilities, our ability to develop solutions for our dynamic customer base and support our strategic growth initiatives.”

Albright new regional sales manager at Lavatec

BEACON FALLS, Conn. — Commercial laundry industry veteran Bill Albright has signed on as a regional sales manager with Lavatec Laundry Technology Inc., the company reports.

Based in Joplin, Missouri, he will be responsible for working with customers in eight Midwest states and reports to Keith Ware, vice president of sales for Lavatec.

Albright has 30 years of sales and operations experience

in the industry. He began his career with CLEAN Uniform Company in 1989. Most recently, he worked as a strategic business development executive on the healthcare side of the business with Aramark Uniform Services.

“I’m looking forward to being a key contributor to Lavatec’s growth throughout the Midwest,” says Albright. “My goals are to increase market share and customer satisfaction in my territory. I love the teamwork and atmosphere here, and the impeccable quality the Lavatec brand has represented in the commercial laundry business.”

A Southern Illinois native, Albright earned a business administration degree at Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville. A father of two daughters, he spends his free time playing golf and following his beloved St. Louis Blues.

EAST BERLIN, Conn. — The board of directors of laundry equipment manufacturer EDRO Corp. reports that Scott Kirejczyk has been appointed managing director of the company.

He succeeds former CEO Joseph Futcher, who is no longer with EDRO, which thanks him for his service wishing the best for his future.

The company says Kirejczyk will be leading the third-generation-owned family business into an exciting new chapter of the iconic brand’s history.

“I’m truly excited about the future opportunities that lie ahead for EDRO and growing and continuing our proud tradition of manufacturing USA-made ‘Battleship Quality Laundry Equipment’ for many years to come,” says Kirejczyk.

Bringing a wealth of knowledge and an array of expertise in the laundry industry to the position, EDRO says Kirejczyk’s principal goal will be continuing to build a strong foundation for the business to facilitate future growth opportunities.

This will include expanding the company’s range of commercial washer-extractors, tumbler dryers, and ozone systems into more commercial markets; developing and evolving the product range; improving operations; and reducing overall costs.

“Building on my grandfather’s and family’s legacies, I look forward to leveraging the core values of EDRO’s 73-year history, designing and building high-end, quality laundry products at competitive prices, providing unparalleled customer service, and promoting an engaging work environ-

ment for our employees for years to come,” he adds.

Kirejczyk’s management team includes four longserving EDRO employees: Donald Price (Materials Manager), Kenneth Bridges (Electrical Engineering Manager), Robert Yorski (Chief Engineer), and David Burnham (Sales and Marketing Manager).

The company says the management team is highly motivated and fully committed to moving EDRO forward in 2020 and beyond.

Mission Linen Supply promotes Champagne to VP of human resources

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — Mission Linen Supply, a provider of linens, uniforms, laundry services and supplies located here, reports it has promoted Brad Champagne, who previously served as the company’s senior director of human resources, to vice president of human resources.

In his new role, Champagne oversees all human resources responsibilities, including compensation, benefits, learning and development, and recruiting.

Champagne first joined the Mission team in 1991 as a management trainee, and by 1994, he was promoted to corporate safety inspector and developed several new safety programs the company says are still in use today. He moved into the human resources department in 1996, where he quickly rose through the ranks, eventually earning his senior director role, and now, the vice president position.

During his time at Mission, the company says Champagne has been instrumental in increasing automation across human resources functions, developing effective employee compensation plans, establishing key business metrics, and implementing company-specific e-learning programs to help employees better understand compliance, customer service, job duties and more.

“Brad is an exceptionally talented, hardworking individual, and a great fit for this role,” says Mission’s president and CEO, John Ross.

“He has a proven track record of success at Mission, and his tremendous experience and expertise leave him well-equipped to make a positive impact for both our company and our customers as he takes over his new responsibilities.”

Champagne earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and has obtained Senior Professional in Human Resources (SHPR) certification and Society for Human

Resources Management Senior Certified Professional (SHRM-SCP) designation.

He is a recipient of the Pensions & Investments Eddy Award for Excellence in 401(k) Education, and he has served as both an expert speaker and panelist on various human resources topics.

Fourth-generation president for Liniform Linen and Uniform Service

BARBERTON, Ohio — Liniform Linen and Uniform Service, located here, reports that Jennifer Peroli has been named the company’s new president as of Feb. 1

Peroli is the great granddaughter of Albert E. Good Sr., who started Barberton White Wash (now Liniform) with his brother, Chris, in Barberton in 1924.

Peroli will turn 40 on Feb. 20 and has been involved with Liniform since she was 15 years old. She started out in dry folding towels. Her grandfather, Ed Good, would drive her to work, “Listening to my grampy’s lectures about business all the way to Liniform,” she recalls.

Peroli worked at Liniform every summer until she graduated with honors from Ohio University, where she received a bachelor’s degree in business administration, majoring in finance and economics.

After college, Peroli decided to venture out on her own and got a job at Nationwide Insurance as a casualty claims liability adjuster. She worked for Nationwide for 12 years in both the Cleveland and Canton offices, and obtained multiple promotions.

In 2015, Peroli decided to come back to her roots to work at Liniform as the healthcare development manager to grow its medical sector. In 2016, she took over as the customer service manager and was able to develop strong, lasting relationships with her customers.

In April 2018, Peroli was promoted to vice president of Liniform.

She married Judd Peroli Aug. 12, 2017, and on Jan. 13, 2019, they welcomed their little boy, Leo James Peroli. The family resides in Wadsworth, Ohio, in her grandfather’s home that the couple purchased.

“Liniform is my grandfather’s legacy, and I will do everything in my power to make sure Liniform continues to grow and move forward while maintaining the business culture my grandfather was known for,” says Peroli.

“Stay on the high ground, for life at work and away from work is for real. You may pretend to yourself that the company is just a place where you work, but the truth is that company is you.”

COMMERCE, Calif. — Seymour Antman, the former leader of Kleen Kraft Services, died at the age of 90 on Jan. 3, after battling with dementia related to a stroke. He retired in 2007 after more than 55 years in the business. His son, Fred Antman, continues to head the family-owned independent uniform rental company based here.

Seymour’s father, Albert Antman, founded Kleen Kraft in 1952 as a small retail laundry that pressed and ironed retail garments, sending the laundering out to another plant.

In 1956, soon after graduating from USC, Seymour joined the family business, expanding the operation and relocating it into a larger facility with its own washroom. By 1968, the company began moving away from the commercial laundry business.

Seymour led the company through acquisitions adding larger facilities and additional services including uniform and linen rental programs.

Fred Antman, the third-generation Antman, joined the company in 1975. Together, Seymour and his son grew Kleen Kraft Services into one of the largest privately owned uniform rental companies in Southern California.

Fred was appointed president and CEO in 1993, while Seymour remained active in the business on a consulting basis for almost 15 years.

“My father had a true passion for his customers and in doing what he said he would,” shares Fred. “That’s a family value that was passed down from his father and still holds true throughout the entire company. I know he is proud of the legacy of our family and the company.”

Seymour leaves behind two children, eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren.

Lavatec sets wash aisle for Metro Detroit’s new laundry facility

BEACON FALLS, Conn. — Laundry equipment manufacturer Lavatec Laundry Technology reports it has set major washroom equipment for the new Metro Detroit Area Hospital Services laundry.

This new, state-of-the-art laundry is expected to be operational in spring of 2020.

The new 12-compartment, 220-pound tunnels, paired with Lavatec’s new LAVASPEED presses, will feed 16 Lavatec

TT745G natural gas dryers, the company says.

The dryers will be loaded by an overhead monorail system onto eight conveyers that can send wet goods in either direction for loading to the next available dryer.

Lavatec says its dryers utilize infrared technology to more efficiently determine when the linen is dry, resulting in lower dryer times and reduced energy consumption.

The dryers will be unloaded by conveyors that will transfer the loads to a monorail system for transport to the finishing side of the plant.

Seaport Capital invests in Linen King

NEW YORK and TULSA, Okla. — Seaport Capital, a private equity firm based in New York, reports that it has completed a strategic investment alongside the founders and operators of Linen King, Leonard and LK McCullough, to support the continued growth of the company.

Details of the investment were not disclosed.

Linen King, based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, is a provider of outsourced laundry cleaning and management services to hospitals, health systems and healthcare clinics in the regions it serves, which include the South Central and Midwest United States.

Through its network of six laundry facilities in five states, Linen King says it offers healthcare customers the security associated with knowing their outsourced linen needs have redundant support within the region.

“I’m looking forward to our new partnership with Seaport Capital and the exciting growth opportunities they will help us execute on for Linen King,” says Leonard McCullough, founder and CEO. “Seaport has a very successful history of helping entrepreneur-led services companies grow.

“They quickly understood, and demonstrated that they shared the values our company embraces in providing not only the highest levels of service to our customers, but a great place to work for our employees.”

“Linen King has established remarkable success throughout its history and has proven to be a leader in the healthcare laundry services sector,” says Drew Meyers, partner at Seaport Capital. “We are proud to support Leonard and his team as they pursue the next chapter of growth for the company both organically and through acquisitions.”

Bob Tamashunas, partner at Seaport Capital, adds, “We’re excited to partner with the Linen King team. Linen King’s business model and approach of staying regionally focused in a highly fragmented industry, maintaining long-term customer contracts and being led by its founders aligns well with Seaport’s investing strategy.”

Stephens Inc. served as exclusive financial advisor to Linen King. Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP served as exclusive legal advisor to Seaport Capital.

Miura, Hartford Steam Boiler, Armstrong International partner to offer ‘steam as a service’

ROCKMART, Ga. — Miura, an industrial boiler manufacturer, reports that it has formed an alliance with Hartford Steam Boiler (HSB) and Armstrong International to introduce steam-as-a-service (SaaS).

The company says the three partners have developed a turnkey, fully financed solution to solve three major challenges facing steam users today: capital funding, declining workforce expertise, and subpar system efficiencies.

Miura says the offering allows customers to focus on their core business while having a partnership onsite to design, build, operate, maintain and continuously optimize steam generation. It adds that this will help customers update aging steam infrastructure that is operating well beyond its optimal life span, or to invest in the best available technology and system design to future-proof new construction.

BAR MOPS

We carry a full line of Laundry bar mops. Custom colors, weights, and private labeling are available with minimums.

SOLID NAPKINS

Spun poly napkins perform consistently over time, are wrinkle-free, and are less likely to stain. Custom colors available. 20” x 20” - Packed 25 dozen/case.

TABLE LINEN

Our restaurant linen lines are woven from spun polyester and benefit from being stain resistant, colorfast, and wrinkle-free. Linens are packaged in manageable carton sizes for laundries, and are Internet-ready packs for retail sales opportunities.

Packed four 6 packs/case

IRREGULAR

These bar mops are perfect for wipe-and-toss in heavily soiled environments. Minor weaving defects such as over-stitching or imperfect cuts reject perfectly good bar mops from circulation. We buy these at a deep discount and pass the savings on to you. Packed: 100 doz/bale.

STARTING AT $1.75 PER DOZ

When bar mop production runs are over and inspections have been completed, mills may still have excess yarn. Run Of Mill (ROM) bar mops contain every bar mop that comes off the loom after the first quality run has been finalized, so are more economical than Grade A1 bar mops.

BISTRO NAPKINS

Spun poly bistro napkins are quickly becoming a staple of restaurants who would like to add a little sophistication to their ambiance. 18” x 22”

Packed 25 dozen/case.

Route Ready bar mops are optically white and packed in bags of 25 so you never have to pre-wash or recount them prior to use. Typically, laundries save 70¢/doz by freeing washroom and finishing floor operators from a wash cycle, you gain production time to focus on other laundry room bottlenecks. STARTING
