Planning a Medical Laundry Facility? Here’s What You Need to Know
Building a medical laundry facility requires careful planning and preparation. Before contacting a professional consultant, it is important to gather the necessary information and documents to ensure a smooth and efficient process. In this post, we provide a comprehensive guide on the required information and documents to help you prepare for your project.
Firstly, you need to determine the bed capacity of your medical facility. This will help you select the appropriate laundry solutions and equipment for your facility.
The following table categorizes medical laundry services based on the number of beds and provides the corresponding laundry solutions.
Service | Bed Capacity(KG) | Estimated Daily Production Capacity | Laundry Solutions |
---|---|---|---|
Small | 1000-2000 | 6000 | Multiple medical isolation single machines are used as the main solution. Complementary models need to be determined. |
Medium | 2000-5000 | 10000 | 1 set of small tunnel washer 09 compartments + centrifugal dehydrator to optimize cost, and emphasize flexibility, 1 set of large tunnel washer 16 compartments + press; one tunnel washer set to handle all kinds of medical fabrics. |
Large | 5000-10000 | 20000 | 1 set or more tunnel washer + dual-channel high-speed press with the tunnel finisher. |
X-Large | ≥10000 | ≥20000 | Large central medical washing facilities with ironing and automatic work garment sorting conveyor. |
Next, you need to provide detailed information on the types of fabrics and materials that your facility uses. This includes information on the volume, type, and weight of the fabrics, as well as any specific requirements or standards that need to be met.
You also need to prepare a budget and timeline for your project. This includes information on the expected costs of equipment, installation, and operation, as well as the expected duration of the project.
Finally, you need to ensure that you have all the necessary permits and approvals from regulatory bodies and local authorities. This includes environmental permits, zoning permits, and building permits.
