linen management improvement for hotel and laundry
What are we here for?
Textiles flow between industrial laundry and a hotel or hospitals is followed by numerous linen losses and mistakes.
For this reason, the number of washings increases, textiles lifetime reduces, thus leading to the growth of new textile production, packaging use, as well as number of laundries done and expenses growth.
Raccoon Textile & Laundry Management System based on RFID technology solves the most challenging problems of the companies dealing with large amount of laundry every day:
MISTAKES & LOSSES
LACK OF DATA & SPEED
WASTE OF RESOURCES
Due to a lack of information about laundry textile whereabouts and quantity of items, together with lost and defective linen, textiles owners (hotel or laundry) purchase and store an excessive amount of textiles.
In addition, extra washing cycles are made, thus leading to over expenditure of water and energy.
Water & resources overuse
Mistakes of employees cause losses and misunderstandings with contractors. Lack of traceability and automation is a problem for both sides: laundry and hotel. Both need more data and the reduction of human factors at every level.
Up to 10% of linen a month is defected
Up to 4% of textile is stolen or lost
Lack of data & control keep it complicated to trace the whereabouts and solve problems with linen.
Manual counting of received linen in an industrial laundry is what takes most of the processing time.

WHAT IS AN RFID TAG
RFID tags are a type of tracking system that uses radio frequency to search, identify, track, and communicate with items and people.
Essentially, RFID tags are smart labels that can store a range of information from serial numbers, to a short description, and even pages of data.
RFID tags transmit data
to the RFID reader
and then - to a computer
