Industrial laundries consume significant amounts of energy to heat water for washing and drying clothes and for generating steam for processes such as ironing or sterilization. Enormous amounts of heat is wasted during these processes if the thermal energy is not captured and reused. Additionally, Industrial laundries operate within tight production schedules and may prioritize maximizing throughput and meeting customer demands. Furthermore, pollutants such as lint and moisture make it a challenge to recover heat to a greater extent.. Until now..
Our patented tech, Lepido, is resilient against pollutants like lint, moisture and fibers and is suitable for diverse industrial laundries applications as it seamlessly integrates into a Run-Around Circuit, overcoming the Coanda effect. Lepido's design minimizes air pressure drop, contributing to consistent performance, extended equipment lifespan and greater energy savings.
Success Story: CWS, in Den Bosch, Netherlands, is saving 63% on it’s gas consumption from its tunnel washers using Lepido. The usage of gas per weight of laundry had decreased from 0,186 kWh/kg, down to 0,068 kWh/kg, resulting in a decrease in fossil CO2 emissions of 50 tons in its first year of Lepido usage itself.
