Simpler Ironing and Fresher Fabrics
New fabric softener reduces hand ironing effort by almost 30 per cent
New Clax Deosoft Easy2Iron conc is an innovative fabric softener from Diversey Care that delivers exceptional softness, reduces creasing and makes it easier to iron linen by hand. It is ideal for healthcare and hospitality housekeeping where traditional hand ironing is still widespread.
Ergonomic studies have shown that Clax Deosoft Easy2Iron conc reduces the physical effort required during hand ironing by almost 30 per cent compared with conventional products. In addition to making it easier for housekeeping staff to complete their ironing tasks more quickly this reduces fatigue and minimises the risk of musculoskeletal disorders.
The formulation also promotes superior softness and fragrance so that linen looks, feels and smells luxurious to give residents, patients and guests the best possible experience during their stay. This leads to positive reviews, higher satisfaction ratings and stronger recommendations.
Modern fragrances in the formulation are designed to match the global trends for an additional touch of luxury. The fragrances persist through lengthy drying cycles and storage times - and are reactivated when the fabric is rewetted – to ensure that linen always smells freshly laundered. In hospitality, for example, this helps to keep guest rooms smelling clean and eliminates odours in shared facilities such as gyms and spas. In care homes it helps to maintain a fresh smell in private rooms, treatment areas and communal spaces. This performance is enhanced by the inclusion of patented ONT Odour Neutralising Technology in the product to eliminate sources of malodours.
The formulation also helps to prevent the fading of dark and strong colours. This means that fabrics retain their appearance for longer which extends their useful working life and reduces replacement costs. The product also eliminates build-up of static electricity on synthetic fabrics to simplify handling tasks.
Clax Deosoft Easy2Iron conc is available in five and 20 litre containers for use with a wide range of commercial and on-premises-laundry equipment.
