It has established a great reputation which is testament to the excellent care provided by its professional team.
Overcoming problems
For a number of years Herncliffe Care Home had used the same machines and tumble dryers but after experiencing a number of issues, with machines frequently breaking down and the high volumes of laundry the care home produced backing up, they approached Wolf Laundry.
Wolf’s Solution
Wolf Laundry provided five Schulthess proLine W-Series 12kg machines to Herncliffe Care Home. The five machines facilitate large washing loads in less time and fast washing programmes, saving Herncliffe Care Home time and money.
Importantly, even more so for a care home, is the disinfection programmes and hygiene monitoring the machines boast which guarantee hygienic, clean and germ-free laundry. They’re also designed for low energy consumption and offer environmentally friendly wetClean.
Our engineers also provided full product training for the four-strong laundry teams to ensure that they could self-operate the machines, understand the different programmes, and how to upkeep and maintain the machines for optimum efficiency.
“Wolf Laundry is a prompt an reliable supplier. The laundry machines Wolf Laundry have supplied and installed run really well and on the very few occasions that we have had to call for support, we have had a great response from both the service department and engineers.”
