At Skyline Equipment we listen to the concerns and needs of our on-premise and commercial laundry customers before ever starting a project. Prior to outfitting a new laundry plant, or an existing one, we walk through the facility, watch production, examine workflow, evaluate laundry design and examine the overall efficiency of the facility. We make recommendations for new equipment based on our customers’ needs and their unique application.
In doing so, we have extensive experience designing and equipping on-premise laundries at prisons/jails, athletic facilities, hospitals, nursing homes, health clubs, fire departments, hotels/motels, schools, salons/spas, veterinary clinics and industrial laundries.
We work with clients to decrease labor and utility costs, improve productivity and streamline the laundry process. Each application is unique …
Athletic Facilities
From professional to college and high school level, Skyline Equipment has developed on-premise laundries at athletic facilities throughout Texas. Most are concerned with boosting laundry productivity and consistently cleaning uniforms, towels, warm-ups and more with little down time. High-speed, freestanding Continental and B&C Technologies washer-extractors ensure a consistent clean for game day using automatic chemical injection and one-touch operation. High-speed extract means more water is removed from a load – shortening dry time and improving the amount of laundry completed per shift.
Correctional Facilities
Mountains of inmate clothing, blankets, sheets and towels are powered through correctional facility on-premise laundries every day, adding up to millions of pounds per year. With inmates running the laundry equipment, safety and ease of use are essential. With automatic chemical dosing and programmable controls, the process is safe, easy and can readily be standardized from unit to unit. Complementing ease of use is ease of maintenance. Today’s equipment uses fewer moving parts and incorporates a simpler design, resulting in an easier job for prison maintenance. It is no secret that Skyline Equipment ensures more laundry is completed in less time, less expense, using less labor, gas, water and electricity in correctional facilities statewide.
Hotels/Hospitality
Linens, sheets, towels, napkins, and tablecloths make up the thrust of hotel laundry. That’s why Skyline helps hotels and motels do more laundry in less time, using less labor, gas, water and electricity. Not only do our Continental and B&C Technologies high-speed washers deliver consistent clean, they remove more water from a load than traditional washers – cutting resulting dry-time by up to 50 percent. When a crisp five-star finish is a must, linens can be fed straight from the high-speed washers directly to flatwork ironers without dryer conditioning. With high-speed machines from Skyline Equipment, hotels boost productivity, and simultaneously, lower labor and utility costs! More and more hotels are embracing a “green” approach to business and to their marketing. Discover how Skyline can help you save money in laundry and linen production by meeting environmental goals related to your laundry operation!
Fire
Soiled firefighter gear is unsafe – exposing firefighters to chemicals, biological agents and particulate matter. Experts agree a highly programmable washer-extractor is a must for proper cleaning of high-tech turnout gear. Continental and B&C Technologies washer-extractors use advanced microprocessors to combine the exact chemicals, water temperature, rinses and extract speed to meet NFPA and manufacturer’s guidelines. Freestanding washer designs also make for simple, impact-free installation – without bolts and thick concrete foundations – allowing positioning in even the most difficult of areas.
Heath Care Facilities
Production is critical to hospital and nursing home laundries, as is washer programmability. These facilities clean a variety of items, including sheets, towels, gowns, bed pads and personals – all of which must be properly cleaned with the appropriate mix of chemicals, mechanical action, number or rinses, extract speed, water temperature and more … With the intuitive microprocessor systems used on both Continental and B&C Technologies, these high-speed washers can deliver wash cycles so flexible that even advanced applications like Ozone injection can be programmed with just a few touches. Automatic chemical injection and one-touch operation ensure ease of use and a consistent and safe clean!
Veterinary Clinics
Smaller applications, like veterinary clinics, typically require a standard-footprint industrial washer capable of handling a variety of items, including blankets and towels used in bedding, bathing or during surgical procedures. High-speed extract and programmability are critical to a consistent clean and improved productivity. Soiled and contaminated laundry shouldn’t lie around in vet clinics for fear of disease growth and cross contamination. That’s why determining the correct wash application is not only mission critical, but pet critical.
Spas, Salons, Heath Clubs
>By quickly cleaning soiled towels, robes and sheets, spas, health clubs and salons help ensure a clean, relaxing and healthy environment. Machine sizing is critical to ensure the laundry equipment’s ability to take on required laundry poundage. Moreover, high-speed extract and programmability are important to improving production and ease of use.
