Texcare 2024 in Frankfurt, Germany, was an impressive display of innovation, bringing together key players from the laundry industry, said Gemma Colomer, marketing and communications manager for Domus. “This year, our stand was perfectly placed, right between some of our main competitors, giving us a fantastic opportunity to showcase the unique value we bring to the market. Our stand really caught people’s attention, showing off everything we offer, from self-service solutions and machines for small businesses to advanced equipment for OPL and industrial laundries. Each area of our stand was set up to give visitors an up-close look at our full range of Domus products, letting them experience our technology and laundry solutions first hand.”
DomusConnect IoT technology (connecting everyday devices to the internet) allows Domus machines to connect online, gathering key data to improve washing and drying times while managing the business remotely. This gives users more control, offering detailed reports on production, cycles, consumption, revenue, and more. It also ensures high-quality processes, guaranteeing hygiene and disinfection in every wash and dry cycle. “Additionally, our new LEMS (Laundry Efficiency Management System) collects data from various counters and centralises it, generating useful metrics for industrial or self-service laundries. Once the data is gathered, it is transmitted via IoT to DomusConnect. The LEMS system enables real-time tracking of water, gas, and electricity usage, and creates detailed, custom reports through DomusConnect. With this system, Domus shows its commitment to innovation and efficiency, providing a complete solution that turns your laundry into an Ecosmart laundry.
Ecovolution is a new range of energy-saving products from Domus loaded with the latest technology, explained Colomer, below:
- Water: Our goal is to use water efficiently. Our washing machines are designed for better programming and optimisation, and come with ECOTANK reservoirs for water recovery.
- Energy: Saving energy is crucial in any laundry, which is why our machines are specially built to maximise energy efficiency.
- Chemicals: Our washing machines are designed to use chemicals more precisely, which means greater savings and better care for garments.
The Ecotank XL water recovery systems, she adds are perfect for front-loading washers as well as sanitary barrier washers as they help create a more sustainable and efficient laundry, allowing water recovery and promoting environmental care.
Domus also offers a wide range of machinery tailored to any self-service business. With constant advancements in products and technology, we’ve introduced efficient solutions like the Domus Laundry app, the Domus Laundry Kiosk payment system, and the new Clean&Move container.
The new Domus Laundry Kiosk central pay allows self-service laundries to offer the best contactless payment solution, linked to the DomusConnect platform and compatible with the Domus Laundry app. Customers can pay with their mobile or contactless card. Owners can monitor operations, view graphs, manage multimedia content, set pricing plans, offer discounts and promotions, and check the status of the kiosk remotely. This new payment hub improves the user experience with simple and intuitive operations, lowers management costs, and provides security for both users and owners.
Meanwhile, the new Clean&Move container is an opportunity for a business to set up a mobile self-service laundry with top-of-the-line equipment, anywhere. This system offers a solution for a range of businesses, including campsites, gas stations, large events, festivals, supermarkets, military zones, car wash tunnels, and more. The Domus Laundry Kiosk can also be added as an option.
“During Texcare the Domus Awards 2024* were also celebrated, recognising the amazing work of Domus’ top distributors across seven categories. It was a great opportunity to connect, celebrate, and show appreciation for their incredible efforts,” said Colomer.
Colomer concluded: “The 2024 edition of Texcare Germany gave us a great chance to showcase our machines and the most innovative features we offer. We are incredibly grateful to all the visitors, clients, friends, and new prospects who took the time to visit us and express their interest in the Domus brand. Their support and enthusiasm motivate us, and we look forward to growing together in the years ahead.
“Texcare 2024 wasn’t just a success in terms of visibility, but also served as an inspiring platform for connecting with partners and clients, reinforcing Domus’ position as a leader in sustainable, high-performance laundry solutions.”
