Commercial laundry equipment products

Pick a product and we source it for you, or send one requirement that covers several.

Buying commercial laundry in Bangladesh

Hotels, hospitals, factories with uniform programmes and commercial laundries in Dhaka, Chattogram, Cox's Bazar and Sylhet wash, dry and finish linen on site. A laundry is sized in kilograms of dry linen per day, and each machine must keep pace with the next. Local conditions decide the choice: steam or gas availability, groundwater with iron and hardness, humid air and load shedding mid-cycle.

A commercial laundry equipment supplier in Bangladesh must size the whole line, and quotes vary in capacity, heating method and installation scope. Send us linen weights, operating hours and the utilities on site. We turn it into one specification, source from verified sellers, check capacity, G-factor, heating type and safety certificates against it, confirm spare parts and local service, and deliver. The seller installs, commissions and trains your team.

Commercial laundry we source

Washer extractors

Machines that wash and spin in one drum, rated in kg of dry linen per load. Soft mount models spin at a higher G-factor, often 300 G or more, leaving less water in the linen; hard mount models spin lower and are bolted to a concrete base.

Tumble dryers

Rotating drum dryers heated by gas, steam or electricity, sized to match washer output; the more water the washer removes, the shorter the drying time. Specify capacity, heating type and the exhaust duct route, and clean lint filters daily, as lint build-up is a fire risk.

Flatwork ironers

Heated roll or chest ironers that dry and press sheets, duvet covers and table linen straight from the washer in one pass. Specify roll diameter, working width for your sheet sizes, speed in metres per minute and heating type.

Dry cleaning machines

Closed-circuit machines that clean garments with solvent instead of water and recover it by distillation, for suits, uniforms and delicate items. Choose the solvent first: perchloroethylene needs vapour control and careful waste handling; hydrocarbon solvents are combustible and need matching safety features.

Laundry presses

Utility presses, form finishers and shirt units heated by steam or electricity. Steam presses need a boiler or steam generator with condensate return, and pneumatic presses need clean, dry compressed air at the pressure the maker states.

Laundry trolleys

Trolleys and bins in stainless steel, plastic or wire mesh for moving linen between floors and machines. Hospitals keep separate, colour-coded trolleys for soiled and clean linen, with smooth surfaces that are easy to disinfect.

What to tell a commercial laundry equipment supplier in Bangladesh

Linen volume
Give kilograms of dry linen per day, the peak day and the working hours. Weigh one set per occupied room or bed, multiply by occupancy, then add restaurant and uniform linen.
Linen mix and loading ratio
List sheets, towels, table linen, uniforms and patient linen. Compare washer capacity at the same loading ratio, such as 1:10, or a drum may hold less than its label suggests.
Heating utilities
State what is available: steam pressure and capacity, piped gas or LPG, and electrical supply in kW, three phase at 50 Hz. The heating type fixes the models and the running cost.
Water quality and drains
Test hardness and iron. Iron stains linen yellow and hardness wastes detergent and scales heaters, so plan a softener and iron removal ahead of the washers. Drains must take fast dumps.
Floor and mounting
Hard mount washers need a reinforced concrete base. On upper floors, soft mount machines avoid passing vibration into the structure; check slab strength, door widths and ceiling height either way.
Power cuts
Ask what each machine does when power fails mid-cycle, especially an ironer with linen on hot rolls, and connect the laundry to a generator with changeover.
Disinfection and controls
Hospitals need a wash programme that holds a thermal disinfection temperature, such as 71 °C for 3 minutes or 65 °C for 10 minutes, with the controller logging it.

Safety standards and commissioning papers

ISO 10472 series
The safety requirements for industrial laundry machinery, with parts for washer extractors, dryers, flatwork ironers and presses. Ask which parts the model meets, and check door interlocks work.
EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
Machines made for the EU carry CE marking under it. Ask for the declaration of conformity; for machines from elsewhere, ask for equivalent safety test reports.
Boiler Act and the Chief Inspector of Boilers
Steam boilers feeding the laundry must be registered and certified by the Office of the Chief Inspector of Boilers. Check the certificate and spare capacity before adding steam loads.
HTM 01-04 thermal disinfection
UK guidance for healthcare linen, setting 65 °C for 10 minutes or 71 °C for 3 minutes. A useful benchmark for hospital laundries; ask for programmes that hold and log it.
ECR 2023, DoE clearance and the FSCD fire licence
Larger laundries may need effluent treatment to meet ECR 2023 limits and Department of Environment clearance conditions. Gas dryers and lint in ducts are fire risks, so the premises' FSCD fire licence should cover the laundry.

What moves the price of laundry equipment

  • Capacity: drum size in kg, dryer size and ironer width and speed; feeding and folding units raise the price sharply.
  • Mounting and G-factor: soft mount high-spin washers cost more but cut drying time, energy and foundation work.
  • Heating type: gas, steam or electric versions differ in purchase price, and even more in running cost.
  • Build and origin: European, Turkish, Chinese or Indian machines differ in drum steel, bearings, controls and parts supply.
  • Installation: foundations, ducting, steam and water piping, drains, water treatment and commissioning.

Lead times and delivery

Smaller washer extractors and dryers are sometimes available from stock in Dhaka within 2 to 4 weeks. Larger machines, flatwork ironers, dry cleaning machines and full laundry packages are usually imported to order and typically take 8 to 14 weeks. Site work such as bases, drains, ducting and power often sets the real start date. Roptan confirms delivery dates, installation time and any minimum in the quote.

The seller surveys the site, delivers across Bangladesh, anchors the machines, connects water, drains, steam, gas and power, and routes the ducts. Commissioning runs each programme with real linen and checks wash temperatures, chemical dosing, spin and residual moisture, and dryer and ironer output, then trains your team. You receive the commissioning report, programme list, manuals, spare parts list, warranty and a VAT invoice (Mushak 6.3). Imported projects usually need an advance.

Questions buyers ask

How do I size a hotel laundry?

Weigh one full linen set per occupied room, multiply by expected occupancy, and add restaurant, spa and uniform linen. Divide by working hours to get kilograms per hour. Split washer capacity across two or more machines so one breakdown does not stop the laundry, with dryers and the ironer matched to them.

Hard mount or soft mount washer extractor?

Soft mount machines stand on a level floor that can carry their weight and spin at a higher G-factor, so linen leaves with less water and dries faster. Hard mount machines cost less but spin lower and must be bolted to a concrete base, usually on the ground floor.

Should we buy gas, steam or electric dryers?

Match the dryer to the energy you already have. Steam suits sites with a boiler; gas suits sites with an approved gas or LPG supply and usually costs less to run; electric dryers are simplest to install but usually cost most to run. Ask each seller for energy use per kg dried.

Our groundwater has iron. Will it stain the linen?

Yes, over time. Iron leaves yellow and brown stains and reacts with bleach. Fit iron removal and a softener ahead of the washers, sized for the laundry's peak water flow, and test the treated water at commissioning and every few months.

What does commissioning include?

Each machine runs real linen on every programme. The seller checks wash temperatures, chemical dosing, spin and residual moisture, dryer times and ironer finish, and trains your team. The report records results and settings, so later performance can be compared against it.

How soon will I hear back about commercial laundry?

Within 48 hours of a complete requirement, with a price and a delivery date. A requirement is complete when it has the quantity, where it is needed and by when.
