What is an industrial Washing Machine?

 

An industrial washing machine is designed for high-demand commercial laundry environments that require large load capacities, continuous operation and advanced wash programmability. Built for heavy daily use, industrial washers are engineered to deliver reliable performance, faster processing times and long-term durability in high-throughput facilities.

Unlike standard commercial washing machines, industrial washing machines are specifically designed for operations requiring:

  • Fully programmable wash cycles
  • Chemical injection systems
  • High extraction speeds
  • Larger capacity machines
  • Continuous multi-load daily operation
  • Heavy-duty industrial components

Industrial washing machines may also require:

  • 3-phase power
  • Bolting to the floor
  • Additional infrastructure and plumbing requirements

This makes them ideal for commercial laundries, healthcare facilities, mining camps, accommodation providers, correctional facilities and businesses processing high daily laundry volumes.

Who Should Choose an industrial Washer?

 

An industrial washing machine is best suited for businesses and facilities that require high-capacity laundry equipment designed for continuous daily operation, advanced programmability and high-volume throughput.

Industrial washers are ideal for businesses that:

  • Operate high-throughput commercial laundry facilities
  • Process more than 5–10 laundry loads per day
  • Require larger machine capacities ranging from 14kg to 100kg
  • Need fully programmable wash cycles and custom settings
  • Require chemical injection systems for specialised washing processes
  • Need precise temperature and fabric management controls
  • Operate environments with strict hygiene or compliance requirements
  • Have infrastructure capable of supporting 3-phase power and upgraded plumbing systems
  • Require durable industrial laundry equipment for sustained heavy daily use

Industrial washing machines are commonly used in:

  • Commercial laundries
  • Hospitals and healthcare facilities
  • Aged care environments
  • Mining camps and workforce accommodation
  • Hotels and large accommodation providers
  • Correctional and institutional facilities
  • Food processing and manufacturing operations

If your business operates with lower daily laundry volumes, standard plumbing and simpler operational requirements, a commercial washing machine may be a more suitable and cost-effective solution.

Hard Mount vs Soft Mount Industrial Washing Machines

Choosing between a hard mount and soft mount industrial washing machine depends on your building structure, installation environment and operational requirements. Understanding the differences between these machine types is important when selecting the right industrial laundry equipment for your facility.

Hard Mount Industrial Washing Machines

Hard mount industrial washers are fixed directly to the floor and typically require:

  • A solid concrete foundation
  • Bolting to the floor
  • Ground floor installation
  • Reinforced building infrastructure

These machines are designed for high-performance industrial laundry environments and are commonly used in commercial laundries, healthcare facilities and high-throughput operations where structural support is available.

Hard mount industrial washers are often a cost-effective solution for facilities with suitable infrastructure already in place.

Hard Mount

Soft Mount Industrial Washing Machines

Soft mount industrial washers use advanced suspension systems designed to absorb vibration during operation. Unlike hard mount models, soft mount machines generally:

  • Do not require bolting to the floor
  • Can be installed on suspended flooring in some environments
  • Operate with higher extraction speeds
  • Remove more moisture during the spin cycle
  • Help reduce drying times and energy usage

The higher extraction performance of soft mount industrial washing machines can improve operational efficiency by reducing residual moisture in laundry loads before drying.

Soft Mount

Choosing the Right Industrial Washer for Your Facility

The best configuration for your business depends on:

  • Building structure and flooring
  • Available infrastructure
  • Laundry throughput requirements
  • Machine capacity requirements
  • Installation limitations
  • Operational efficiency goals

Our team can help recommend the most suitable hard mount or soft mount industrial washing machine based on your facility requirements, laundry volume and installation environment.

Industrial washing machines are larger scale, more durable and have more features than commercial washing machines. Generally commercial machines are up to 10kg capacity and industrial washers are above 10kg capacity. Industrial washers are tested to last much longer than commercial washers.

Do industrial washing machines require 3-phase power?

Yes. Most industrial washers require 3-phase electrical supply to operate correctly.

What capacity industrial washer do I need?

Industrial washing machines range from 14kg to over 100kg. The correct size depends on your daily throughput, linen type and operational goals. Our team can help you make the correct decision.

What is a washer extractor?

A washer extractor is an industrial washing machine that removes high levels of moisture through high G-force extraction, reducing drying times.

How long should an industrial washing machine last?

Industrial washing machines are tested to 30,000+ cycles and are engineered for long-term operation (over 10 years) in demanding environments when properly installed and maintained.
