+20% IMPROVEMENT IN PRODUCTIVITY

Kenn Kjellberg, owner-manager:

I’m running a versatile, Danish laundry. We have been in operation for more than 70 years. We process 1,000 tons of laundry from hotels, hospitals, nursery homes, army, and the industry on a yearly basis, with 40 employees in the production in the height of the season.

I thought we were doing all right!

But the guys from Laundry Logics improved our productivity with more than 20 percent in the high season – corresponding to more than 15 percent full year.

That’s a lot of money. Every year. Laundry Logics also gave us the basis to reduce our water- and energy-consumptions – and they costed the expences of all our articles.

The expenditure for the modelling-proces? It simply evaporates in comparison to the gains we harvest now – and will continue to harvest in the coming years. And my laundry isn’t one of the biggest!
