The science

Why a professional laundry
is not your washing machine.

Home washing machine Convenient.
Not precise.
Domestic appliance · 6–8kg capacity
  • Capacity6–8 kg per cycle
  • Extraction100–200 G-force
  • TemperatureDrops as rinse water enters
  • ProgrammeOne setting for everything
  • WaterHard tap water, undosed
  • DetergentUser-measured, imprecise
  • Drum speedFixed agitation

"Designed for convenience. Not for fabric longevity."

Industrial washer extractor Precise.
Per fabric.
Commercial machine · 10–120kg capacity
  • Capacity10–120 kg per cycle
  • Extraction300–400 G-force
  • TemperaturePrecise throughout cycle
  • ProgrammeSet per fabric type
  • WaterSoftened and filtered
  • DetergentAuto-dosed by weight
  • Drum speedProgrammable per fabric

"300–400G extraction removes more water mechanically — less heat needed to dry, less damage over the life of the garment."

The reference

Temperature.
The most consequential decision.

20°C Hand wash
  • Silk sarees
  • Fine wool
  • Lace & delicates
  • Embroidered wear
30°C Cold gentle
  • Silk
  • Delicates
  • Dark colours
  • New garments
40°C Standard
  • Cotton formals
  • Everyday wear
  • Synthetics
  • Most garments
60°C Hygiene wash
  • Bedding
  • Towels
  • Whites
  • Heavily soiled
90°C Sanitise
  • White cotton only
  • Hospital linen
  • Heavily contaminated

The temperature on a care label is a maximum — not a recommendation. Every garment is assessed before washing begins. The temperature is chosen for the fabric, not for the convenience of the cycle.

Assessment
before everything.

Every garment is assessed before any water touches it. Fabric type, colour stability, soiling level, care label — the correct method is chosen before the cycle begins, not assumed.

The right method
chosen per garment.

Machine wash or hand wash. 30°C or 60°C. Standard detergent or enzyme-free. Each decision is made for the specific garment — not applied as a single setting to everything.

Quality checked
before it returns to you.

Every garment is inspected after washing and pressing — stain resolution, colour uniformity, fabric integrity and finish. Checked before packaging. Not assumed.
