NALI secretary Geoffrey Bricher said a number of suppliers to the industry have already committed themselves to the event. Companies confirmed so far include Alex Reid, Armstrong Commercial Laundry Systems, Crouch Water Softeners, Electrolux Laundry Systems, Total Laundry Care and Warwick Dryers.

At a time when utilities costs are soaring and legislation increasing, company presentations will focus on energy-saving equipment. Visitors to NALI’ s stand at the exhibition will also be able to obtain and the latest information on employment, disability discrimination law and health and safety issues will be available from NALI’s own council of management team, supported by independent authoritative sources.

Members of NALI’s council visited the DTI on 20 April to discuss the effect of the surge in energy prices on the industry. A report will be featured on the LCN website shortly.
