In Kenya’s flower industry, compliance and efficiency go hand in hand. Yet one system is often overlooked: laundry. Yet for large farms, the volume of uniforms, protective gear, and facility textiles makes it mission-critical. A well-designed laundry setup doesn’t just clean garments; it ensures audit readiness, worker safety, and operational reliability.
The Compliance Imperative
Export markets in Europe and the UK are scrutinizing hygiene and safety standards across the supply chain. Laundry plays a key role in ensuring safe handling of chemical-contaminated gear, accurate hygiene records, and readiness for regulatory inspections. In-house systems give farms direct oversight and reduce the risk of delays or inconsistent standards.
Systems Built for Agricultural Demands
Flower farms face high-volume, daily laundry operations, particularly during peak harvests. Machines need to withstand heavy use and safely handle PPE and protective garments. Henson Laundry, through Tolon Global Makina, supplies industrial machines designed specifically for these operational realities.
Ensuring Consistency at Scale
For farms employing hundreds or thousands of workers, delays in laundry can disrupt productivity and compliance. In-house industrial-grade systems ensure reliable, predictable, and scalable laundry cycles, keeping operations running smoothly.
