One hour on the ironer
120
Each mark is one sheet pressed and folded. That is 120 in an hour — a whole block of flats turned over in the time of a clean.
The plant
Everything leaves from and returns to one place.

King Laundry has served the Algarve for more than two years, out of its own plant in Loulé. That is where the collection vehicles leave from, and where the textiles come back to be washed and prepared.
More than five vans run the circuit and the plant handles over two tonnes of textile a day. Everything is back in 24 to 48 hours; specific products and quantities can take more than 48 hours.

The equipment
The ironer is why the turnaround fits in 24 to 48 hours.
A laundry that presses piece by piece cannot close a full hotel’s daily count. Industrial capacity can, and that is what the Loulé plant runs.
- Four-metre ironer with folding
- It presses and folds in the same pass. Four metres of working width take double sheets flat, without folding them in half to fit.
- 120 sheets pressed per hour
- That is the ironer’s rate in normal running. It is the number that decides whether the morning shift has its linen in time.
- High-capacity machines
- Industrial washing and drying, sized to a hotel’s volume rather than a household’s. That is what absorbs the weekend peak instead of pushing it into the next week.
The products
Linen lasts longer when it is treated properly.
We wash with enzymatic, biodegradable products, dosed to the type of stain and to the fabric. The enzyme attacks the stain; the right dose is what stops it attacking the fibre as well.
The maths shows up in the linen room: the same bedding set lasts longer washed with enzymatic products at the right dose than washed without them and dosed by eye. Anyone buying textile every year is already paying that difference.
It is why a contract’s price should be compared with the textile it saves, not only with a price per kilo.
What the plant does with the textiles
The round is built around the hours of whoever hires it.
There is no fixed route for clients to fit into. There is a calendar per client, and that is what sets the hour the van comes by.
- Scheduled, tailored collection
- Frequency and time are agreed with each house and go in the calendar.
- Storage between uses
- Textiles out of rotation are stored and managed at the plant, and come out when the house asks for them.
- Handled separately
- Delicate fabrics, technical fabrics and uniforms with requirements of their own do not go through the same treatment as the rest.
- Products and equipment
- We wash with enzymatic, biodegradable products in high-capacity industrial equipment.
How it starts
From the request to the free trial.
Three steps, and a contract only comes up after the third.
Two minutes
Four questions about the operation
Sector, size, frequency and a contact. You do not need the volume to the kilo — the estimate is built from the answers.
After the request
The quote comes with the round
The price arrives alongside an estimate of textiles per week and the number of rounds that estimate calls for.
Before any contract
The free trial
You can test us first: bring up to 5 kg to the Loulé plant and we wash it free of charge, before there is any contract.
Terms
Volume and contract move the price.
There are specific terms for large volumes and for recurring contracts, agreed case by case.
Ways to pay
- Bank transfer
