Understanding Why a Towel Laundering Service Makes Sense for Your Business

Clean, ready-to-go, job-specific towels are an important and necessary asset for many jobs. Unfortunately, time spent sourcing, cleaning and making sure the right towel is ready for the right job is often a distraction from job productivity and efficiency.

Whether you're in the hospitality industry, healthcare sector, automotive space or any other field that relies on clean and hygienic towels, you need the confidence that comes from a hassle-free towel laundering service to maintain your clean towel inventory.

Vestis™ works with customers in multiple industries to deliver a clean supply of task-specific towels, pick up soiled product, launder them and help maintain inventory counts on a dependable weekly basis. A rental towel laundering service has many advantages including convenience, efficiency, sustainability and reliability - without an upfront financial investment.

At Vestis we can help you select the right towels from our wide assortment for your specific requirements and help ensure your team is prepared for the task at hand.

Filling Industry-Specific Towel Needs

Selecting the right towels for the right job is critical for some tasks and creates efficiency for others. But one towel doesn't fit all job functions. It's important to consider the purpose of the towel, location where it will be used and your customer base. Luxury hotels, for example, would benefit from investing in plush bath towels, while fitness centers may require gym towel service that include towels made for durability.

Vestis works with a wide variety of industries and supplies them with the appropriate towels to help complete their jobs safely, hygienically, efficiently and with greater ease. Plus, rental towel service is often a more sustainable option than single-use, disposable towels. Let's look at some of the towels we offer and the industries we partner with:

Restaurants and Hospitality

Cleanliness and creating hygienically safe food prep areas, serving stations, restrooms and common areas are of utmost importance when welcoming the public and preparing food for diners. We carry a wide range to towels to help keep the busiest of kitchens working at full capacity including:

• Bar Towels made from a ribbed, cotton/polyester blend terry for optimum wiping and scrubbing.
• Microfiber Wipes are absorbent and great for wiping tables and counters.
• Dish Towels can be used to dry and polish dishes and china.
• Soda Towels in a cotton/polyester herringbone pattern are used to dry drinkware.
• Glass Towels that leave a virtually lint-free shine on windows, mirrors and other smooth surfaces.
• Grill Pads that can be used to help wipe debris from messy grill surfaces.

Gyms and Spas

Competition in these busy industries is fierce. Small changes can set you apart. Fresh, luxurious towels free of stains and odors and a clean environment can make a big difference. We have a variety of towels as part of our gym towel service and spa towel service that can be delivered to your club on a weekly basis:

• Standard Bath Towel Collection comes in a variety of sizes including washcloths, massage towels and various sized bath towels. They are absorbent and an excellent value.
• Premium Bath Towel Collection includes washcloths, hand towels and bath towels. The hand towels and bath towels are made with 100% plush cotton and are ultra-absorbent.
• Hand Towels are useful throughout fitness centers and spas.

Automotive and Industrial

Let's face it, working in automotive, industrial or manufacturing shops can be messy work. Dealing with grease, grime and solvents requires mechanic shop towels and industrial towels made to stand up to the job, including:

• Shop Towels made from a cotton/polyester blend for maximum absorbency.
• Microfiber Wipes used to quickly dry or polish surfaces.
• Fender and Seat Covers that are napped on both sides to help protect vehicle surfaces from scratches, dirt and stains.

Healthcare

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are infections acquired during hospital stays or other healthcare procedures. They're a serious concern for the healthcare industry as HAIs are among the top 10 causes of death in the United States¹. Replacing cotton towels with more efficient healthcare microfiber can help remove more contaminants from high touch surfaces and lead to healthier, more satisfied patients.

Benefits of Towel Laundering Service

One of the primary benefits of a rental program is that you don't have to handle soiled towels, invest in expensive laundering equipment, run to the laundromat or worry about running out of towels. Plus, towels that are laundered and used again can be more environmentally friendly than single-use disposable towels.

Vestis' laundering process starts with a dedicated Route Sales Representative who will drop off freshly laundered towels on your scheduled delivery day. They'll also pick up soiled towels to be cleaned using our proven wash formulas. These formulas combine years of expertise with precise and controlled wash methodologies. Our automated washing system maintains consistency with measured detergent, water, temperature and wash time. Stain fighting detergents help remove oil, grease and other soils while retaining color.

For healthcare microfiber towels, Vestis uses a wash process that meets EPA requirements for sanitized laundry, effectively reducing 99.9% of the following disease-causing pathogens during the wash cycle: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)².
