CleanTex Services, a family-owned healthcare launderer has recently been re-certified Hygienically Clean for Healthcare for its Trenton, New Jersey laundry, reflecting their ongoing commitment to best management practices (BMPs) in laundering as verified by on-site inspection and their capability to produce hygienically clean textiles as quantified by ongoing microbial testing.

CleanTex Services serves customers in New York, New jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Originally certified in December 2015, this renewal certification confirms the organization’s continuing dedication to infection prevention, compliance with recognised industry standards and processing healthcare textiles using BMPs as described in its quality assurance documentation, a focal point for Hygienically Clean inspectors’ evaluation. The independent, third-party inspection must also confirm essential evidence that:

•             Employees are properly trained and protected

•             Managers understand regulatory requirements

•             OSHA-compliant

•             Physical plant operates effectively

“Congratulations to CleanTex Services’ Trenton laundry on their re-certification,” said Joseph Ricci, TRSA president and CEO. “This achievement proves their continued commitment to infection prevention and that their laundry takes every step possible to prevent human illness.”

CleanTex Services also holds the TRSA Clean Green certification, proving their commitment to customers that their laundry is also dedicated to standards for operational efficiency and sustainability.
