The Perfect Add On For Your Textile Uniform Route Service

Most consumers don’t give a second thought to textile, garment, uniform and mat rentals and just assume that any eating establishment, for example, will be clean. But think about it for just a minute. Would you eat in a restaurant where the table was set with soiled napkins and/or tablecloths? And would you feel comfortable ordering a meal from a server whose uniform revealed remnants of the meals of whoever sat there before you arrived

If, alas, the answer to these questions is yes, read on and learn more about the Textile Rental Service (TRS) business and why our vast array of air care solutions are the perfect add on to increase your monthly profits.

Air-Scent Garment And Textile Rental Route Service Add On

Understanding The Textile and Uniform Rental Industry

Every single day of the year, millions of Americans benefit from clean, comfortable, professionally laundered linens and garments delivered by textile rental route service companies. Businesses that cannot economically launder textiles in-house are traditionally, the industry’s best customers. It is estimated that the textile and garment rental industry supplies uniforms to some 20 million workers in the United States and linens and towels to hundreds of thousands of healthcare and hospitality facilities.

Other businesses that rely on textile and garment rental services include: restaurants because of their extensive use of linen napkins and tablecloths, hospitals, auto-related businesses where workers’ garments are soiled with oil and chemicals and require the heavy-duty laundering of a professional service; repair shops, manufacturers, fitness centers, salons, spas and retailers.

For the most part, textile services are local operations that launder goods for customers within your service area. A driver on a local service route who reports to a supervisor based in the same facility is responsible for providing customer service within that locale. According to Infinite Laundry, the $16 billion textile route service industry employs more than 200,000 people who work at more than 1,500 facilities nationwide. A fleet comprised of about 25,000 trucks delivers laundered goods on a weekly basis.

Two Important Surveys

Two business-to-business national surveys were commissioned in 2015 by TRSA, the leading global textile services trade association, and conducted by Fort Lauderdale-based research firm, Fabrizio Ward. They covered healthcare, hospitality, food and beverage and other industrial sectors. Results indicated that 78% of business leaders believe that textile service providers can greatly reduce their expenses and 70% are convinced that renting reusable textiles reduces solid waste, provides better quality and is environmentally sustainable. Eighty-four percent of participants indicated that renting uniforms greatly improved their corporate image, and 63% indicated that renting reusable shop towels minimizes concerns about hazardous waste.

According to Joseph Ricci, president and CEO of TRSA: “The garment and textile rental route service industry gives us an opportunity to help businesses offload expenses and operations that are beyond the scope and expertise of their primary mission while also helping them operate in a more environmentally responsible way.”
