The world’s 1001st “AquaClean” machine has now gone into service in Germany. It was delivered to “Monika’s Textilpflege” in Badburg, a town between Cologne and Aachen. The washing system was developed by the Electrolux-Wascator company for the wet-cleaning of textiles in water. It is already being used in 28 countries all over the world as a profitable and environment-friendly supplement to dry cleaning.

With its new vibration balancing system, Electrolux-Wascator has managed to make its industrial washing machine operate more quietly than an ordinary domestic washing machine.

A simplified payment system for laundry rooms and laundrettes is being launched by Electrolux-Wascator. Using the new SingleSystem, the handling of money disappears and is replaced by a personal payment card. By reducing theft and vandalism and simplifying administration, many landlords and property owners can make large cost savings.
