Commercial laundry expert Wolf has announced the launch of what it claims is the first and only end-to-end smart laundry solution in the UK. Barnsley-based Wolf Laundry is introducing serviceMaster, an end-to-end smart laundry solution in partnership with leading Swiss washing technology group Schulthess.

In 2022, Wolf was announced as the exclusive UK supplier for Schulthess washing machines and now the Swiss company backs Wolf to roll out its new service.  serviceMaster removes guesswork and provides easy control and optimisation with innovative digital dashboards and analysis tools enabling users to boost efficiency, enhance machine availability and achieve unparalleled results.

Providing remote monitoring and control for providers, app-based user control, real-time notifications, and alerts serviceMaster brings commercial laundry into the present day, says Wolf. It also features data insights and analytics, smart diagnosis and troubleshooting with automatic service triggers, and customisation.

serviceMaster not only works for brand new installations of washing machines and dryers but it may also be retrofitted into older machines, as well as those from other brands, to help providers make the best use of current machinery.

Josh Brown, director at Wolf Laundry, said: “The last year of partnership with Schulthess has grown organically, and as part of our commitment to our customers to provide the highest standard of laundry equipment, I am pleased that our unique partnership continues as we bring the highly innovative serviceMaster to the UK market.

“Schulthess is a pioneer in laundry technology and the brand new serviceMaster ensures time efficiency, profitability, flexibility, and sustainability are at the forefront of all laundry solutions. This means that with simple consumption statistics, providers and users alike can ensure a superior wash every time, via cutting-edge remote technology.

“The service has many features that meet industry specific needs from our clients, from care homes and social housing to universities and laundrettes, serviceMaster boosts them all.” As one of the Schulthess one-stop shop professionals, Wolf is ensuring sustainable, innovative laundry solutions are consistently accessible to UK customers.

Samuel Wildhaber, head of sales at Professional Schulthess, said: "Through cutting-edge technology and tailored features, the serviceMaster from Schulthess is revolutionising the customer experience.

“We have redefined laundry technology standards, ensuring care homes, social housing, universities, launderettes, and more can enhance their operations like never before. With increased efficiency and environmental friendliness, our customers value these advancements greatly.
