Within the last nine months we have
completed four tests regarding the cleaning performance and
verification of the cost savings for commercial laundries with the
use of the EcoTech Solutions technology.
The tests were completed by one of the
oldest and most respected consulting companies in the Commercial
laundry industry, a prestigious engineering school at a major
northeastern University and one of the largest independent testing
companies in the country.
Cleaning Performance:
The intent of the testing was to address the
two largest industries which either run or contract Commercial
Laundries. The Healthcare and the Hospitality Industries.
The laundry industry consulting company
chose a healthcare laundry facility in New England that serviced
numerous hospitals laundry needs. They chose to measure the cleaning
quality and color reflectance (defined as "brightness") of hospital
bed pads at the current baseline using chemical detergents and with
the installation of the EcoTech Solutions technology in the absence
of chemical detergent. They then conducted testing with the
installed technology with the absence of technology and the
reduction of wash water temperature, and the elimination of numerous
flush and rinse cycles.
Results and Conclusions:
Upon the completion of the tests it was the
conclusion of the Consulting Company and the Laundry Quality Control
supervisor that the loads processed using the Laundry Technology
resulted in the following:
Cleanliness and Stain Removal
The overall cleaning and staining removal
using the EcoTech Solutions Laundry Technology loads was equal to or
better than the traditional processing using laundry detergent.
Color Reflectance
The brightness of the loads was superior
using the EcoTech Solutions Laundry Technology.
Note: a formal detailed report was supplied
to EcoTech Solutions on May 30, 2001 documenting the above.
The Hospitality Industry Testing
To validate the cleaning and reflectance
results using the Ecotech Solutions Technology a famous Mid-Atlantic
resort was chosen.
The resort laundry serviced the following
facilities:
1. Four full service hotels including a 5-
star Hotel.
2. Laundry services for ten Bed & Breakfast
style houses.
3. Food service for nine restaurants, four
taverns, the hotel dining facilities conference centers and golf
course clubhouses.
4. Resort employee laundry service for all
costumes and uniform used at the resort.
