IT’S MATHS!
You don’t believe that these figures add up, do you? But our thinking is absolutely rational, as arithmetic. Consider a 25m2 laundry: would you have ever guessed that it could be ample enough to manage until 100 kg of clean, dry and perfectly ironing linen per day? Moreover it’s a zero emission solution!
Now, take into account the distance parameter: wash, dry and iron the linen far away from the place where
it was dirtied and where it will be reuse, could compromise the hygienic effect reached by the professional treatment as well as have a negative influence on the wellness of our Planet. Have you ever thought about how much CO2 the transport of linen (clean and dirty) can generate? The only solution, to avoid these problems, is to create an indoor laundry service, where everything is under control: hygiene, quality, performance, costs and, of course, environmental sustainability.
Between folk wisdom and marketing tipsA proverb was never more timely and incisive offering, beyond the
conventional wisdom, also a substantial advice to improve your business. For our grandparents “don’t air you dirty laundry in public” meant simply resolve the private matters with discretion, between the domestic walls, without involving strangers to the family; contextualized within the laundry sector, this proverb suggests to keep under control the entire phases of the linen processing. Managing the process is, indeed, the key to getting the best results not only in terms of production capacity, but also from the point of view of quality, durability of linen, and respect of hygienic standards, everything at the lowest cost possible. And what about the considerable reduction of the CO2 produced? An indoor laundry is also eco-friendly. Have you ever thought about how much carbon dioxide produces the transport of dirty and clean linen?
Who pays for the service?
Creating an internal laundry service is often perceived as a costly choice for different reasons: dedicated spaces, plants,
machinery costs, staff training, decay of supply, complication of the normal duties of the employees because it’s an activity unrelated to the core business. Actually, if you choose smart equipment, programmed during the installation phase, that don’t require anything else than upload the dirty linen and press the START button, many of these issues, such as the staff training, get into the right perspective. Even the detergent dosage is not a burden anymore thanks to our modern automated systems. If the obstacle is the initial outlay, consider that the internal management of the linen treatment can quickly recover the investment, ensuring at the same time the direct control over the quality and the versatility.

DON’T AIR YOUR DIRTY LAUNDRY IN PUBLICYou don’t need to be an
expert to understand that is worthwhile!
Is an indoor laundry really favourable? Process control is so crucial? And what
about costs? Ensuring the quality of the result, monitoring directly the process
and its versatility, are three fundamental factors that guarantee the effective
management of the textiles treatment. If the benefits of an indoor laundry are
immediately clear even to those who doesn’t work in this sector, the next three
points further confirm them.
Taylor made service. An indoor laundry offers a custom-ized service in which there isn’t the risk to pay neither too much nor too little (with high probability to loss quality). Oversimplifying, it means that you pay only for what you actually use and nothing more. On the follow-ing pages we’ll discover this important aspect in detail.
The process is completely automatic. Washing and drying phases are now fully automated, even for
the dosage of detergents. It isn’t necessary detract your employees from other activities to control the machines, nor particularly skilled figures are required: just read the name of the program on the display and press START. Regarding ironing, finally, we guarantee speed, superior quality and ease of use. Need anything else?
The cost of washing, drying and ironing treatments is competitive because you wash only the dirty items
and, especially, use the resources in according to the type of dirt to be treated: in other words it’s a pay-per-use solution, without fees or minimum quantities. Each season has its cost.

TAYLOR MADE SERVICE Theme
SMALLER IS THE SIZES THEN BIGGER IS THE BUSINESS
Everyone has different needs and resources, and often
works in fields also very distant from each other. For this
reason, our offer is very wide and able to respond to the real
requirements in terms of productivity, staff’s engagement and
operating costs. Exclusive and sartorial, then, not because it’s
necessarily valuable or refined, but rather because it’s tailor-
made to the specific activities and the environment in which
it will be used. We don’t offer, therefore, a standard and
impersonal list of products on a catalogue, but a
real expert advice.
Initially we listen the customer
necessities, visit the property,
understand the distinctive
features and the problems, then we
proceed with the study of the most
advantageous solution, responding to
every requests. Laundry equipment are
tools which should simplify the activities
adapting themselves to the operating needs
of the structure, not vice versa.
The convenience of this type of approach is
immediately clear to the client: he brings
home what he actually needs, with a defined
costs-benefits report and an advance calculated
productivity. No surprises.
What would happen if your needs change over
the time? We’ve already thought about it! The
completely freedom programming of our equipment
allows to easily adapt them to changing requirements.
Versatile, efficient and professional: the EXTRA SMALL size
is small only in the amount of linen treated daily. Talking
about the performance, instead, it responds effectively to the
needs of facilities such as B&B, wine-bar or small restaurants,
working every day, about 30 kg of linen. Grandimpianti models
included in this category are GH6 washing machine, GD6 dryer
and flatwork ironers with a roller with 18 cm of diameter. This
size can be used in small coin laundries of residences, campsites,
holiday homes, social housing, etc.
Thereupon the XS size we treat linen loads up to 50 ÷ 60
kg per day. S size, indeed, offers more equipment able
to deal with different type of loads at the same time, or just
one washing machine and one dryer. These type of devices
can be used in small business sectors with special needs such
as exclusive restaurants with a few seats, but a wide variety of
fabrics and different types of dirt; B&B, fitness centres, SPAS, or
as a complement to large laundries. In this case we propose the
Small PRO series of washing machine and flatwork ironers with
diameter from 18 up to 25 cm. This solution can also be used in
coin laundries of campsites, holiday homes, social housing, etc.
Versatility is the keyword in laundry! Grandimpianti translates this concept into the ability of adapting to every conditions of the market. For this rea-son, the solution is tailored to the client
We surely have also your size
needs, like a customized suit that should fit perfectly. You just have to choose among the size available whatever is closer to your requirements and then, if necessary, we’ll “fix” the measures.

FULL-SIZES FOR EXTRA LARGE NEEDS
If you need to work with large amounts of linen the EXTRA
LARGE size is the best solution for you: big dimension without
losing quality and versatility. This category, which allows reaching
440 ÷ 450 kg treated per shift, is composed of large capacity
washing machine as WFP models, 1090 or 1500 GDZ dryers and
ironers with 40 cm of roller diameter or calenders with diameter
of 30 - 50 cm. The XL size is perfect for hospitals, nursing homes,
accommodations, hotels, restaurants and industrial laundries.
In this case we are referring not only to large appliances, but
especially to customized solutions, designed to meet specific
client requirements such as shift work, space available, energy
resources, stock split or other specific needs. Everything without
reducing the quality and versatility that the previous smaller kit
can guarantee.

HERE THE CENTRAL MEASURES NEVER FAIL
With this category of equipment we fully enter into the
professional textile treatment and we can handle up to
100 ÷ 115 kg of laundry per shift. M size, therefore, provides
the connection of the appliance to the automatic dosing systems
for detergents, in addition allows the choice between high spin
speed or average speed washing machines that are ideal, i.e.,
aboard of ships. Drying focuses on performance models in terms
of time/cycle, while for the ironing phase we offer automatic
versions with intake fumes systems or adjustable roller speed.
We’re talking about the GWH, GWM and GWN washing
machines, GDZ dryers and ironers with a roller from 25 up to 30
cm of diameter. This size is best for self-service laundries, where
robustness and execution speed of washing and drying cycles
are crucial, together with costs control.
Do you need to handle more than 100 ÷ 115 kg of laundry?
No problem. Let’s move onto the L kit that allows to work
up to 180-190 kg of laundry per shift. In this version the washing
machines are connected to automatic dosing systems and you
can choose between high or average spin speed models, the
latter are ideal aboard of small or medium-sized boats. Drying
phase, instead, focuses on machines that can provide high
benefits in terms of time/cycle. Ironing, finally, offers automatic
equipment with the intake fumes systems or adjustable roller
speed. Naturally that level of production load can be satisfied
with single machines or several equipment with intermediate
load capacities. We’re talking about WFM washing machines,
GDZ and EB41 dryers, and flatwork ironers with roller between
30 - 40 cm of diameter.

ALL GOOD THINGS COME IN THREESWhat is the point of having good washing and drying phase without a perfect ironing?
Ironing is the latest and perhaps the most delicate phase of the textile treatment, so if it isn’t
perfect can compromise the entire process: it should be flawless, smooth and without defects
because the quality of ironing can be seen, but above all, touched. For this reason, this phase
requires the continuous presence of the operator and, therefore, equipment not only efficient
but also ergonomic to guarantee high comfort. Don’t forget that fabrics can be different for
types and sizes: this requires additional flexibility. Grandimpianti has solved the challenge
with some innovative solutions and modularity, using the right materials, such as the extrud-
ed and anodized aluminium. This material al-
lows achieving perfect and durable ironing
surfaces, even at high temperatures, and re-
sults without compromises.
The range of our equipment consists of
flatwork ironers with different diameters,
lengths and types of coverage, to best meet
any production needs. They are designed to
combine multiple ironing surfaces, provid-
ing large ironing components big up to the
double of standard size that allow easily and
quickly handling also of large linen.

THE TABLE WITH THE RIGHT FOLD
A complete range of equipment Since 1997, Grandimpianti I.L.E. has decided to invest on roller ironers developing various patents and guaranteeing outstanding performance, both in terms of mechanical and thermal results, increasing the perception of the professional quality in ironing. Grandimpianti has been able to value this phase of the textile treatment process using pure materials, perfect surfaces, controlled temperatures, soft and breathable roller pads capable of taking care of the tissues. So our equipment guarantees a perfect ironing of linen from every point of view.
Grandimpianti professional ironing machines dedicated to flat linen are associated by a series of innovative technical solutions that put them at the top of the products available in the market. They are equipped with electronic control (with adjustable PID temperature), ironing plate made of anodized aluminium, heating elements integrated on the profile of straightening plate, intake fumes systems and adjusting speed rotation of the roller.

Three families of products designed to combine in an effective and modular way the peculiarities of each machines with the uniformity of their language and performance.
THE COLLECTIVE AND COMPLETE ANSWER TO THE HYGIENE AND CLEANLINESS ISSUES
GWH (Grandimpianti I.L.E. High spin):high spin washing machine;
GWM (Grandimpianti I.L.E. Medium spin):medium spin washing machine with G4-Wiz® control;
GWN (Grandimpianti I.L.E. Normal spin):normal spin washing machine with G4-Wiz® control;
GB (Grandimpianti I.L.E. Barrier washer):high spin barrier washing machine;
GDZ (Grandimpianti I.L.E. Entry level):the entry level dryer with G-Wiz® control;
S (Grandimpianti I.L.E. Ironers):the world of ironing.
These models differ from each other in functionality, but are similar in their
fundamental aspects. Products that share the same type of electronic control, which can be combined into a single module forming an integrated team, extremely easy to handle for the operator, whether he is, user or maintainer. A further competitive advantage of these products is the energy efficiency, crucial point of their design and creation process.
The concept of contamination between technologies has allowed us, indeed, to
implement ideas and solutions from other areas, transferring and using them into a new solution tailored to the laundry sector. As the patent DWS for linen weighing or the introduction of the extruded and anodized aluminium plate in our ironers, allowing significant savings of time and energy.
Aiming to win the battle for cleanliness and hygiene and responding to the needs of
different type of customers, we have developed an integrated system of products (washing machines, tumble dryers and ironers) who speak the same language: the user’s one. Products that know how to communicate effectively and positively to each other, ensuring optimal performance. Three families of products in which uniformity and modularity are the key concepts.
You can find the uniformity even in their names. Our products, indeed, have the initial
G followed by a letter indicating the family they belong to. A simple, fast and functional way to make the product easily recognizable:
