The Evolution of Seaside Linen and the Impact of GI Automation
As a college student, Craig Myatt spent the summers working as a bartender in a touristy North Carolina beach community. That's when he noticed a need for clean linens within the vacation rental market. “I started in a garage in 2000. I'd rent sheets and towels, put them into a bedsheet package, and then I’d deliver them to rental properties,” he said.

When hunting for new laundry equipment, be sure you fully investigate programmability and performance. Not all ironing systems, washers and dryers are created equal. Before you invest, determine how today’s equipment technology might benefit your laundry now and into the future. Read on for my checklist of equipment musts … Read Column
The most labor-intensive area of a laundry is on the finishing side because it involves folding. The good news is that there are machinery options out there that can significantly reduce those labor hours, while upping production, quality and efficiency. Even better? While you might think investing in automation will break the bank, it won’t. Most folding systems pay for themselves in two years or less. And if you look to finance, the money saved in labor typically makes your monthly payment. Read Column
All industrial, commercial and on-premise laundries process different items, utilize different pieces of equipment, strive toward unique quality goals and operate at varying levels of efficiency. When it comes to purchasing new equipment or replacing old equipment, proper sizing is critical. Before you do anything, reach out to your equipment distributor and begin a dialogue. The best way to properly size a laundry, and its equipment, is through back-and-forth conversations on the type and number of items being laundered, the laundry’s hours of operation, labor required, space available and ownership costs. By considering all the variables, you’ll select the best equipment to suit your needs, now and into the future. Read Column
Pounds Per Operator Hour, or PPOH is a critical benchmarking measurement that shows the average laundry pounds processed by a single employee in an hour. It's likely the most important efficiency metric used by laundry operations. This is because a laundry's greatest cost savings is always gleaned from reducing the labor hours used to deliver the product. So I urge you, if you haven't already, to calculate your laundry's PPOH. Then, look for ways to maximize it. Read Column
At Girbau Industrial, we sell both soft- and hard-mount washer-extractors because they fill different needs within the market. But, if you ask me which is better in terms of laundry production and energy savings, I’ll tell you – every single time – that commercial/industrial grade soft-mount washers are far superior. Are soft-mount washers really that great? Yes! Here’s why … Read Column
