How should businesses prepare for the future?

By Charlie Robards, Business Development Manager at Miele Professional

Undoubtedly, the hospitality industry has faced an immensely difficult few years. From heightened hygiene requirements in the wake of the pandemic, to escalating energy costs because of inflation. There is no telling what crises we could potentially face in the near future, so what can hospitality businesses do to better prepare themselves?

One crucial area in your business where you can not only protect your reputation but also reduce your costs is the laundry room. Opting for an on-premise laundry facility (OPL) compared to outsourcing will not only ensure items are being hygienically processed but can also make a big difference to your business' bottom line. Investing in a quality commercial machine might need a bigger initial outlay, but in the long term the equipment will pay for itself, and not just financially. Providing a safe and clean environment for guests, delivering faster turnaround times, and reducing your environmental footprint are just some of the ways your business can benefit.

Commercial appliances by Miele Professional are designed to give you maximum hygiene assurance whilst giving you the flexibility needed to suit your business requirements. Washers and dryers are built with a range of programmes appropriate for the items being processed as well as Chemo and Chemo-thermal disinfection programmes to eradicate harmful bacteria and prevent infection. So, you can ensure the highest standards of hygiene and quality for your guests. And with sustainability becoming a growing focus for businesses and consumers, Miele's machines use less power and water and are built to last, providing you with peace of mind and preventing unnecessary landfill.

The thought of introducing an OPL might seem impossible but at Miele Professional, we provide tailored contracts to meet your individual requirements and we will even help with the overall layout.
